A.VERIFIED ANSWERfact-checked by tutors
We separate components of mixtures for several reasons:
- To remove unwanted substances
Example: removing tea leaves from tea. - To obtain useful substances
Example: churning milk to obtain butter. - To remove impurities
Example: removing stones and husk from rice or wheat.
Separation techniques help us obtain pure substances and make materials suitable for use.
