Question
a solid precipitate is formed from the reaction of lead nitrate and sodium chromate. what would be the best method to separate this solid from the solution? distillation evaporation filtration sorting
Filtration is used to separate a solid - liquid mixture where the solid is insoluble in the liquid. In this case, a solid precipitate is formed in a solution, and filtration can effectively separate the solid precipitate from the liquid solution. Distillation is for separating mixtures based on differences in boiling points. Evaporation is mainly for obtaining a dissolved solid by removing the solvent. Sorting is not applicable for separating a solid - liquid mixture like this.
