Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Matter that can be separated using physical methods.
A
Pure Substance
B
Mixture
C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -A mixture is composed of two or more types of matter that can be present in varying amounts and can be physically separated by using methods that use physical properties to separate the components of the mixture, such as evaporation, distillation, filtration and chromatography.

Detailed explanation-2: -Heterogenous mixtures can be separated into their respective constituents by simple physical methods.

Detailed explanation-3: -Physical separation methods, such as filtration and distillation, are based on the difference in particle size and on the boiling point of the substances in the mixture, respectively. These are properties that can be observed and measured without changing the material itself.

Detailed explanation-4: -Mixtures – two or more substances that are not chemically combined with each other and can be separated by physical means. The substances in a mixture retain their individual properties.

Detailed explanation-5: -The separation scheme used to separate the mixture is based on differences in the physical properties (such as boiling point, melting point, solubility in a given solvent, etc.) of the three components.
