If you have to separate acid from a acid-base mixture in liquid state, how will you do that?

Question

Accepted Answer

To separate acid from an acid-base mixture in liquid state, we can use various methods such as solvent extraction, distillation, or ion exchange.

Solvent extraction involves adding a solvent that selectively dissolves the acid, then separating the two layers.
Distillation involves heating the mixture to vaporize the acid, then condensing it back into a separate container.
Ion exchange involves passing the mixture through a resin that selectively binds to the acid, then eluting the acid with a different solution.
The choice of method depends on the specific properties of the acid and base in the mixture.

Accepted Answer

Frist we check PH after we can do compound extract in acid or base we check ,after we can extract organic solvents

Accepted Answer

Wash with dil.base like 1N NaOH and extracted with organic solvent.

Accepted Answer

Should do Acid base treatment

Accepted Answer

Addition of NaOH into the mixture resulting in the formation of salt, followed by acidification to precipitates the acid
