A mixture of sugar and sulphur can be separated by dissolution in water followed by
A. filtration and evaporation
B. decantation and filtration
C. centrifugation and evaporation
D. decantation and evaporation
The correct answer is:
A. filtration and evaporation ✅
Explanation:
Dissolution: Sugar is soluble in water, but sulphur is insoluble.
Filtration: Separates solid sulphur from the sugar solution.
Evaporation: Removes water from the sugar solution to recover solid sugar.
This method works because it takes advantage of the difference in solubility of the components.
