Explanation:

Brewing tea in a pot involves soaking tea leaves in water to extract flavors and compounds. Leeching is the process of extracting soluble substances from a solid by a liquid. In tea - brewing, water acts as the liquid that extracts flavor - compounds from tea leaves. Filtration is for separating solids from liquids by passing through a filter medium. Distillation is for separating components based on differences in boiling points. Chromatography is for separating mixtures based on differential partitioning between a stationary and a mobile phase.
