Question

How will you separate camphor, common salt and iron nails from their mixture?

✓

Answer

A horse-shoe magnet is moved on the surface of the mixture of camphor, common salt and iron nails. The iron nails are attracted by the magnet, they cling to the poles of the magnet and get separated. This process is repeated a number of times till complete separation of iron nails occur leaving behind mixture of camphor and common salt. Mixture of camphor and common salt is heated. Camphor sublimes on heating leaving behind common salt and can be recovered in the form of sublimate by cooling its vapours.
