Separation of two or more components of a liquid solution cannot be achieved by___________________?
Correct answer: A. Absorption
- A. Absorption
- B. Liquid extraction
- C. Fractional crystallisation
- D. Evaporation
Explanation
Absorption transfers a solute from a gas into a liquid, so it is not the usual operation for separating components already present in a liquid solution. Fractional crystallisation, liquid extraction and evaporation can separate liquid-phase components.
