Evaporation separates a dissolved solid from a volatile solvent, or separates liquids if one is much more volatile and the other is the desired component (or discarded). Condensation is the phase change from gas to liquid and is a step within the distillation process, not a standalone separation method for a liquid mixture.<br \/>\n<\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A homogeneous mixture contains two liquids.
