Question 3 • SVHS Chemistry 1 $FA

What method could be used to separate the components of gasoline?

Answer
A
chemical reaction
B
distillation
C
filtration

Explanation

Gasoline is a mixture of liquids with different boiling points. Distillation separates such components by heating the mixture so substances vaporize at different temperatures, then condensing the vapors. Filtration is used to separate solids from liquids, so it would not separate gasoline’s liquid components.
