8ways of separating mixtures

Distillation
When mixtures consist of two or more pure
liquids than distillation is preferred.
The components of a liquid mixture are
vaporized, condensed and then it is isolated.
The mixture is heated and the component that
is volatile in nature vaporizes first.The vapour
moves are allowed to pass through a condenser
and then it is collected in a liquid state.
Handpicking
Handpicking includes simply picking out
all the unwanted substances by hand and
separating them from one another.
The separated substances can be an impurity
That has to be thrown away or maybe that
both the separated substances are useful.
For example, if you separate black mangoes
from yellow ones from a mixture of the two.
Threshing
Threshing is mostly done during the harvesting
of crops. Usually, the stalks of the wheat are
dried and it is harvested. The grain is then
separated from the stalks. It is then grounded
into the floor by beating the dry stalks of
grains to shake off the dried one.
Winnowing
In this method, when the grains are collected
from the process of threshing, it needs to be
cleared properly from husks and chaffs before it
is turned into flour. Usually, the separation of
the mixture is done with the help of wind or
blowing air. The husk and chaff are blown away
by the wind when the farmers keep the mixture
from a certain height to the ground. Later, the
heavier grains are collected in one place.

Sieving
Sieving is done to separate mixtures
that include substances mostly of
different sizes. The mixture is allowed
to pass through the pores of the sieve.
All the smaller substances pass through
it while the bigger once is retained

Evaporation
It is a technique that is in use for
separating a mixture. The mixture is
usually a solution of a solvent and a
soluble solid. The solution is heated up
to the point until the organic solvent
evaporates and it turns into a gas or
leaves behind the solid residue.

Distillation
Filtration is the most common method
of separating a liquid from an insoluble
solid. For example, the mixture of sand
and water. This method is in use to remove
solid particles from the liquid. Different
kinds of filtering agents are normally in use
like filtering paper or other materials.
Filtration or
sedimentation
A separating funnel is in use to segregate two
immiscible liquids. The method involves taking
advantage of the unequal density of the particles
in the mixture. Oil and water can be separated
with the help of this technique.
