Separating mixtures through Decantation
There are many ways of separating components of mixtures. Heterogeneous mixtures can be separated by physical manipulation, undissolved solid in liquid can be separated by filtration, components of suspension can be separated by decantation, elements in solution can be separated by evaporation or distillation, and mixtures of metals and nonmetals can be separated by magnetism. Substances in different mixtures are usually separated from one another using a certain process method. The method used depends on the type of mixtures.
