Filtration is a common method of separating an insoluble solid from a liquid. An example of a mixture is sand and water. This process involves the use of a filter paper placed in a filter funnel. The funnel is placed in a beaker and the mixture of water and sand is poured into the funnel. The liquid part drains through the filter paper into the beaker, leaving the solid sand particles trapped on the filter. Filtration is a common method of separating an insoluble solid from a liquid. True or False?
True
False

Evaporation is good for separating a mixture (solution) of a soluble solid and a solvent. The process involves heating the solution until the solvent evaporates (turns into gas) leaving behind the solid residue.

Simple distillation is best for separating a liquid from a solution. It is similar to evaporation, but the vapor is collected by condensation. What is the difference between evaporation and distillation?
the vapor is collected by freezing
the vapor is collected by filtration
the vapor is collected by condensation

Fractional distillation is similar to simple distillation. It is best for separating a solution of two liquids. (liquids that dissolve in each other). Fractional method takes advantage of the different boiling points of the two liquids. Fractional distillation takes a bit more time than the simple distillation. Fractional distillation takes less time than the simple distillation. True or False?
False
True
