Separation Techniques and its Properties

Technique Property(ies) Use in Separation

Floatation Difference in density Separate Styrofoam balls (lower density) from the rest of
the mixture (higher density)
Filtration Difference in Separate sand (larger particle size) and iron (larger
particle size particle size) from water (smaller particle size) and
sodium chloride (smaller particle size)
Evaporation Difference in boiling Separate sodium chloride (higher boiling point) from
point water (lower boiling point)
Magnetic Difference in Separate iron (magnetic) from sand (not magnetic)
Separation magnetic properties
Extraction Difference in Separate sodium chloride (soluble in water) from iron
solubility (insoluble in water) and sand (insoluble in water)
