A

Filtration

67
Q

The solid component that remained in the filtering medium is called the _____.

A

Residue

A

Sedimentation and Decantation

70
Q
  • If a mixture involves a substance that can easily transform from a solid state to its gaseous state, sublimation is used.
  • Example: mixture of naphthalene and salt. Slight increase of heat makes naphthalene sublime, leaving salt.
A

Sublimation

71
Q
  • __________ is used for mixtures of soluble solids in liquids, such as table salt in water.
  • Water evaporates upon heating, leaving the salt crystals.
