Filtration, Evaporation, and Distillation: Master Separation Methods
You will discover how scientists separate mixtures using filtration, evaporation, and distillation and learn exactly when and why each method works.
What You'll Learn
You use filtration to separate insoluble solids from liquids easily.
You apply evaporation to collect dissolved solids left after heating.
You use distillation to recover pure liquid by cooling captured vapour.
You choose the right method based on each substance's physical properties.
What You'll Practice
1
You will identify which separation method works for each mixture type.
2
You will explain why filtration cannot separate dissolved salt from water.
3
You will compare evaporation and distillation using boiling points and condensers.
Why This Matters
Understanding separation methods helps you explain how clean water is produced, how salt is harvested, and how scientists purify substances in the real world.
