Separation of Mixtures - Explained

In this video we will learn about about six different ways to separate the components of a mixture. We will learn about centrifugation, distillation, filtration, chrmatography, decantation and magnetic separation. We will then talk about ways to seprate a pure substance and use electrolysis as an example.

[Panda-etti]

Centrifugation- the process of separating a mixture based on the densities of the particles in that mixture. (physical)

Chromatography– the separation of a mixture in which the components move at different rates, usually used when separating the components of an ink or dye.

Filtration- The mechanical or physical separation of a mixture based on the size of the particles in that mixture.
(ex: Kitchen strainer, beach sand sifter, colander, coffee filter )

Distillation- The process of separating a mixture of two or more liquids based on the boiling point of the liquids in the mixture.

Decantation- The careful pouring off of a liquid from a mixture containing both a liquid and a solid.

Magnetic Separation- A process in which magnetically susceptible material is extracted from a mixture using a magnet. This separation technique can be useful in mining iron as it is attracted to a magnet.

Electrolysis- The chemical separation of the hydrogen atoms from the oxygen atom in a water molecule.

My science teacher use your video to show us what separation of Mixture is, your explain and example are very clear, thanks

Trust me, by placing this 1.25x speed it's really good. It sound normal and kills a lot of time

[bigbosspro]

Excellent explanation. Simple and easy to understand. Well done.

i am watching this at home cuz of covid ;)

Dcantation XD... the fancy term for what I do when I don't want the spaghetti noodles to fall into the sink.

[EduardoLopez-gjpt]

Awesome Video very useful information for a non-chemist also enjoy the examples given

[iop]

Thank you so much for your excellent explanation

[okikiolaogunsanya]

I also need to know about fractional distillation, crystalization, sublimation.

Tagalog:Salamat sa explenasyon!

English:Thank you for the explination!

[maryamshaikh]

Thank you sir for such a helpful video....!!

[diegogordon]

thanks you saved me on science greetings from Panama yeah also in america

[bomivideo]

Very nice thanks to you I got admissions to uniben

[sudiptanag]

very nice explanation. make a next videos for us with the lots of example, how can we separate the mixture like water + sugar, water + salt, Water + alcohol, etc then we gonna able to understand 100%.. thank u lot

[zakiabbas]

Great video, but I would have like to see evaporation in it.

[Pileofleaves]

Holy crap you saved me because our notes have to be printed tomorrow thx!

[Galaxy]

Lol I have and assignment on this in class in 8th ms billingsley class so I’m glad to be able to comment on this

[sonalitehare]

What is the machine used to separate blood into plasma and rbc called ?

[itsmerifat-reactme]

8:40 you can’t put the water in the other cup by the kitchen strainer

[Luxurzx]

Got a science GCSE tomorrow, I left this hella late
