Laboratory Techniques: Separation of Mixtures

In this post, we are going to be talking about separating mixtures.
We have to talk about physical and chemical changes and types of mixtures. The question is, how do we separate mixtures? We can exploit compounds' physical and chemical properties to make them separate to study a single compound—properties such as size, density, solubility, electrical charge, and boiling point.
