A. distillation of a mixture
B. filtration of pure substance
C. evaporated of a mixture
D. sorting of a pure substance

Answer 1

Answer:

A is the correct answer (distillation of a mixture)

Explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

A. distillation of a mixture

Explanation:

The topic the teacher is most likely talking about is the distillation of a mixture.

During fractional distillation, a mixture is separated into it constituents based on differences in their boiling point.

• A liquid made up of denser hydrocarbon such as crude oil is fed into the distillation chamber.
• It is then heated.
• At different boiling point of its constituents, the fractions begins to separate out.
• They rise in the column.
• The condensate is then collected.

This process is the distillation of mixture.
