Which separation techniques will you apply for the separation of the following? (a) Sodium chloride from its solution in water.
Explanation There are many ways out there to remove salt from water but evaporation and distillation are easy ways to do this. Separation by evaporation: Pour the salt solution in a pan. Turn the heat on, and allow it to evaporate the water. As the water evaporates, solid substance, salt will remain behind in the pan. This is a slow process but can be speed up by increasing the temperature. Final answer Hence, by using evaporation technique , sodium chloride can be removed from its solution.
