Question

question 2. a student is using a procedure to separate a mixture in the lab, as shown in the image provided below. part a. which separation procedure is the student conducting? part b. what property does this procedure use to separate components? part c. what does this process do?

Explanation:

Part A: The setup looks like paper - chromatography where a mixture is separated on a paper strip.
Part B: This procedure uses the different solubilities and rates of movement of components in a solvent along the paper.
Part C: The process separates a mixture into its individual components based on their differential interaction with the paper (stationary phase) and the solvent (mobile phase).

Answer:

Part A: Paper - chromatography
Part B: Solubility and rate of movement in a solvent
Part C: Separates a mixture into individual components
