 Methods of Separating
Mixtures

 1. Centrifugation
It uses an instrument that speeds up the settling of
precipitate. The precipitate settles at the bottom of the
instrument once it gains centripetal force. The supernatant is
then poured off from the container.

 2. Fractional Distillation
It is used to separate mixtures based from their boiling
points. The crude oil heated into gas, cooled and
condensed to produce gasoline, lubricating oil and
kerosene and other products.

 3. Winnowing
After threshing, grains need to be cleared out of husks
and chaffs. The husk and chaff are blown away by the
strong wind or air when the farmers drop the mixture
from a certain height to the ground. The heavier grains
are collected at one place

 4. Threshing

A method used to separate grains of rice from

dried stalks after harvest. The grain is then
separated from the stalks and grounded into the
floor by beating the dry stalks to shake off the
dried grains.

 5. Evaporation

This process typically involves heating the

mixture until no more liquid remains. This
method is suitable to separate a soluble solid
from a liquid. Production of salt usually
incorporates this method up to this day

 6. Sedimentation

It is a process by which heavier particles in liquid

substance settles at the bottom of the container. It
may take some time for sediment to settle. The
liquid can be poured off afterwards.

 7. Floatation

Gold is a very rare commodity that always comes

with a hefty price for collectors. During 1840s,
miners use gold “panning technique or
floatation” to separate gold particles from soil.
The soil is placed in a pan and swirl it so that the
less dense particles can be easily scoop out from
the top layer of the pan. The heavy particles of
gold settles at the bottom and is then manually

 9. Sieving

A process of separating mixtures with different

sizes. The mixture usually passes through a
medium with pores of the sieve. All the smaller
substances pass through easily while the bigger
components of the mixture are retained.

 10. Handpicking

It involves picking out all the unwanted particles

in a solid mixture by hand. The unwanted
impurity may be thrown away just like how we
separate small stones from the grains of rice..

 11. Magnetic Separation
This method incorporates the use of
strong magnets to separate magnetic
components of a mixture. It is quite
useful for substances that has magnetic
properties such as metals.

21
 12. Chromatography
It uses a solution or suspension or as a
vapor that passes through a medium in
which the components move at different
rates. Thin-layer chromatography is a
special type of chromatography used for
separating and identifying mixtures that
are or can be colored, especially
pigments.

 13. Distillation
Distillation is a process where the
components of a liquid mixture are
vaporized and passes through a cooled
tube or condenser and collected. The
condensate that is collected is called
distillate..
