Mixtures can be separated by physical processes. These processes do not involve chemical reactions, and no new substances are made.

Filtration is used to separate an insoluble solid from a liquid

Filter paper and a 2 beakers

Filtration works because the filter paper has tiny holes or pores in it. These are large enough to let small molecules and dissolved ions through, but not the much larger particles of undissolved solid.

used to produce solid crystals from a solution

When the solution is warmed, some of solvent evaporates leaving crystals behind

A busen burner

Apparatus

Mesh sheet

Evaporation basen

Dry the crystals using a warm oven or by patting them with filter paper.

If u don’t have them just store them in a warm dry place to let the crystals fully form

It is used to separate a solvent from a solution. It is useful for producing pure water from seawater.

because the dissolved solute has a much higher boiling point than the solvent. When the solution is heated, solvent vapour leaves the solution. It moves away and is cooled and condensed. The remaining solution becomes more concentrated as the amount of solvent in it decreases.

a mixture of several substances, such as crude oil, is distilled and the evaporated components are collected as they condense at different temperatures.

Separated by there boiling points.
