Revisit the essentials, then return to an explanation when you need it.
| Difference | Method |
|---|---|
| Insoluble solid in liquid | Filtration |
| Soluble solid wanted | Crystallisation or suitable evaporation |
| Solvent wanted | Simple distillation |
| Miscible liquids with different boiling points | Fractional distillation |
| Different movement with solvent and paper | Chromatography |
Choose measurements with suitable precision. Distinguish observation from inference. A clear liquid is not automatically pure.
