What is the principle behind evaporation as a separation method?

  • 1

Evaporation separates components by turning the liquid into vapor, leaving behind any dissolved solids. As the liquid evaporates, the solid residues remain, making it useful for purifying solutions.

  1. Evaporation is a method where a liquid is heated to turn it into vapor, which then escapes into the air, leaving behind any dissolved or suspended solids. This process effectively separates the solid from the liquid. It is commonly used to obtain pure substances from solutions, such as in crystallizing salt from seawater or separating sugar from a sugary solution. The rate of evaporation depends on temperature and surface area.
