The differences in the properties of two substances in a mixture can be used to separate a substance out of the mixture. what two differences in the properties of oil and water are used when oil is skimmed or poured off the top of a mixture of oil and water? a. solubility and density b. magnetism and boiling point c. particle size and color d. boiling point and density

A. Solubility and density.

Step-by-step explanation:

The oil is insoluble in water, so the liquids form two layers.

The oil is less dense than water, so it floats on top of the water, where you can skim it off.

B, C, and D are wrong. If you are skimming off the oil, you aren’t using its magnetism, boiling point, particle size, or colour for the separation.  

hey there!

boiling point is the temperature at which the vapor pressure of the liquid equals atmospheric pressure. the vapor pressure of solvent molecules is decreased when a solute is added, so a higher temperature is required to increase the number of solvent molecules in the gas phase above the liquid.

at the freezing point, the vapor pressures of the solid and liquid are equal; a lower temperature is needed to reduce the number of solvent particles above the liquid.

hope this you
