______5.A process used by the scientist to separate many liquid mixtures. The mixture is dissolved in a liquid or gas, and
the solution dissolves quickly and travels up toward a solid material.
A. Evaporation B. Filtration C. Distillation D. Chromatography
_____6. Which of the following statements has a correct definition?
A. Evaporation happens when you put the salt water in an open container under the sun then the water
evaporates leaving the salt behind
B. Distillation is the process of separating mixtures where particles of solid matter neither dissolve nor settle in a
liquid, the mixture can be filtered using paper or cloth.
C. Chromatography is the process used to separate many solid mixtures.
D. When two immiscible liquids are put together you can separate using a magnet.
_____7. What is the difference between filtration and decantation?
A. Decantation is when two immiscible liquids are put together, the denser liquid settles below the other while
filtration is when you let the substance evaporate using heat or fire.
B. Filtration is the used of magnets while decantation is mixing two immiscible liquids together and the denser
liquid settles below the other.
C. Decantation is when two immiscible liquids are put together, the denser liquid settles below the other while
filtration is when particles of a solid matter neither dissolve nor settle in a liquid and the mixture can be filtered
using filter paper and cloth.
D. Filtration and Decantation has no difference at all.
