Separating Techniques

• A solid from a liquid = Filtration

• A solid from a solution of the solid = Evaporation

• Two liquids with different boiling points = Distillation e.g. Water and ink

• Liquids with diff. boiling points = Fractional Distillation e.g. Crude oil

• Dyes in a solution = Chromatography

Find RF value:

• Distance travelled by dye / Distance travelled by solvent
