A scientist is working in a lab and accidentally combines two liquids that quickly for a solution which process can be used to separate the two liquids
1 answer
One common process that can be used to separate the two liquids is distillation. Distillation works based on the differences in boiling points of the liquids. The scientist can heat the solution, causing the liquid with the lower boiling point to vaporize. The vapor is then condensed and collected as a separate liquid. The liquid with the higher boiling point remains behind in the distillation flask.
