  1. Types of Solutions

On the basis of dissolution of solute in solvent, solutions can be classified in three types;

  -saturated,

 -unsaturated and

An unsaturated solution can be defined as the solution in which solvent is capable of dissolving any more solute at given temperature.

 In other words, solvent does not contain enough amount of solute in it and can dissolve more solute.

  A saturated solution is the solution in which solvent is not capable of dissolving any more solute at given temperature.

A super saturated solution contains large amount of solute at that temperature and as temperature become reduced the extra solute crystallize quickly.

(b) Sublimation is method which used to separate mixture that contain component which sublimes.

  -the mixture heated to a certain temperature that make one of the component in a mixture to sublime as a pure component leaving residuals unchanged.

(c) filtration.

      Is a method which used to separate components of suspension that take long time to settle completely.

   -filter paper prepared and placed in a filter funnel then the mixture is powered carefully on a filter paper in a filter funnel. Clear liquid is obtained

  (d) evaporation is a method which used to separate solute from liquid solution.

   -A solvent is converted into gas when the mixture boiled/heated and solute remains as residue.

  (e) fractional distillation is a method that used to separate homogeneous mixture that its components differ in boiling points.

    -The component with lower boiling point escape  and collected first as pure substance.

  (f) chromatography is method of separating mixture of the colour pigments.
