Which of the following techniques is used for the separation of insoluble Particlesfrom liquids?

Correct answer: A. Filtration

  • A. Filtration
  • B. Crystallization
  • C. solvent extraction
  • D. Chromatography

Explanation

Filtration involves passing a mixture through a filter that allows the liquid to pass through while trapping the insoluble particles. This method is effective when dealing with a mixture where one component is insoluble and needs to be separated from the liquid phase.

About Experimental Techniques in Chemistry

Separation methods are selected according to differences in solubility, particle size, volatility and sublimation behaviour. Filtration and crystallisation separate insoluble or dissolved solids, sublimation isolates suitable volatile solids, distillation separates liquids by boiling point, and solvent extraction transfers a substance between immiscible solvents.
