Question

Given a solid mixture containing sodium chloride, magnesium oxide and benzoic acid. i. Design a scheme to successfully separate and collect each component of the mixture.

Answer 1

filtration and Chromatography

Step-by-step explanation:

The first method used for separation of solids from the mixture is filtration. Filtration is used to separate different solids in a mixture which has particles of different sizes. Other method is Chromatography in which the compounds in the mixtures are separated from each other by moving the mixture at high speed. Due to high speed, the compounds are separated from each other because different compounds have different speeds so it is separated easily.
