Question

Suppose you want to separate the leaves,acorns,and twigs from a pile of soil. Filtration and distillation are two processes of seperating mixtures. Explain which process you would use and why.

Answer 1

Filtration is the process we can use here as distillation is done mostly in liquids and we can use distillation here to seperate the substances from the soil.

Answer 2

Filtration

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to have in mind:

The filtration is a physical process used to separate two or more components due to their different size of particule (or unit).

The destilation is a chemical process used to separate two or more componets due to the difference between their boiling points (usually used with liquids).

Being that said, by filtration you can separate the leaves, acorns and twigs from the soil.
