Solution

1) Solvent Extraction is based on the principle of different solubilities.
2) Chromatography is based on the principle of difference in movement of different components of a mixture through the stationary phase when a mobile phase passes through it.
3) Principle of filtration is based on the principle of size differences between the particles.
4) Evaporation is the phenomenon of change of a liquid into vapour at a temperature below its boiling point. The process occurs only at the surface of a liquid. The different particles of a substance possess different amounts of energy and many particles at the surface gain enough energy to overcome the forces of attraction present in the liquid and change into the vapour state.
5) Fractional distillation is similar to distillation where the mixture of liquid is separated in different fraction at different temperature (depend upon boiling point of liquid.)
6) Separating funnel works on the principle of immiscibility of the two liquids.
7) Sublimation is a process in which a solid turns directly into gas without passing into liquid state.
8) Sedimentation and decantation work on the principle of difference between the weight of the constituting particles of the solution.
9)
Magnetic separation is a process in which valuable minerals which are attracted by magnetic field are recovered from a mixture using a magnetic force.
