Brain Break!
Distillation Separation of a solution by boiling off a liquid, then condensing it in a separate container, leaving the other substance (liquid or solid) behind.
Solvent Extraction Separation of a mechanical mixture by dissolving one solid in a liquid and leaving the other behind, OR Separation of a solution by adding an immiscible liquid that dissolves one component of the solution but not the other.
