Mixture

This document discusses various separation techniques used to separate mixtures into their pure chemical components. It defines key terms like mixture, pure substance, distillation, evaporation, chromatography, fractional distillation, filtration, manual separation, flotation, use of magnets, decantation, and centrifugation. These techniques separate mixtures based on differences in their boiling points, solubility, density, magnetism, and other physical and chemical properties.
