Which of the following analytical method is used for the separation of dissolved components from solutions?
Correct answer: C. Solvent extraction
- A. Chromatography
- B. Dialysis
- C. Solvent extraction
- D. Electrophoresis
Explanation
Solvent extraction is a method used to separate compounds based on their relative solubilities in two different immiscible liquids, usually water and an organic solvent. The compound partitions between the two phases, allowing for its separation.

About Analytical Chemistry
Analytical chemistry identifies and measures substances using separation and instrumental methods. Chromatography is studied through stationary and mobile phases, retention and Rf values, while spectroscopy connects absorption of electromagnetic radiation with molecular structure and supports qualitative and quantitative analysis through techniques such as UV-visible and infrared spectroscopy.
