List some methods of separating.	• sieving • filtrating • distillation • evaporation • chromatography
Define: a) miscible liquids b) immiscible liquids	a) liquids that do dissolve into each other- often separated using fractional distilling b) liquids that do not dissolve into each other- for example, oil and water
What is fractional distilling?	• an effective way of separating miscible liquids using a fractional column. • this is possible because of the different boiling points of the liquids in the mixture
What is the difference between simple and fractional distillation?	• simple distillation is used when the substances have a significant difference in boiling points • whereas if the boiling points of the two liquids in the mixture are close, fractional distillation is more efficient
What is paper chromatography?	separates mixtures of substances dissolved in a solvent as they move up a piece of chromatography paper
Why does chromatography work?	The different substances are separated because of their different solubilities in the solvent used.
