separate alcohol from water using method other than distillation?

Freezing only works on a certain percentage mixture.  Chromatography on regular phase silica would work the best using a non polar hydrophobic solvent.

I'm going to assume you mean water distillation.  Water distillation is done by evaporating water (one change of state: evaporation), and then cooling that water vapor (another change of state) and collecting the liquid water.

Those processes take special equipment. But generally, one takes a sample, boils it with the addition of either a solvent or an acid (depending what one is extracting) which releases the oils. From there, the solution may have to be dried, distilled, separated, or all three. HOWEVER, it absolutely requires that specialized equipment. ATTEMPTING an extraction without the right tools, protective gear, chemicals, forethought, planning, procedure, technique, and disposal could result in not only undesired products, but health concerns and issues ranging from burns, loss of conciousness, poisoning, carcenogenic effects, and even loss of life. It is highly not recommended to undertake the procedure if any  of these requisites are missing or lacking.

any type of alcohol. Everclear?? haha

I'm assuming you are extracting from an aqueous solvent?  Preferably, you want to increase the polarity of the aqueous solution, such that the solute has less affinity for water than it would for the organic solvent.  This can be done by "salting" the water (increasing the ionic strength by adding an inert salt, a la NaCl).  You then extract the solute with your organic solvent of choice, usually using smaller aliqouts more frequently vs. larger aliqouts (deals with partition coefficient, or how much will get extracted vs. how much remains in the water).  After extraction, the organic solution is usually dried (more often than not by MgSO4 or Na2SO4) and then the solvent is distilled off to yield hopefully pure product.

physical methods of separation; distillation, filtration, centrifugation, etc.\nChemical methods: sublimation, crystallization,  chromatography (actually, a combination of the chemical properties of the solubilty of the item in solution, and physical separation of stubstances via filter paper)

By fractional distillation.\nDEG distills at 93 'C, you can collect first and then collect water at 100 'C.

Alcohol-Petroleum ether solution\nAcetone\nDimethylsulfoxide\nBenzene are widely used solvents in the chromatography.

water, rubbing alcohol or if nothing else acid :P(dont really do acid)

pure alcohol-it dissolves most impurities, but wont dissolve the salt itself.

Distillation. Put sugar water in a crucible or beaker and heat over a burner. When all the water has evaporated, the sugar will be left. If you are actually going to carry out this experiment, be careful to not burn the sugar after the water has evaporated, unless you don't mind throwing out the beaker or doing some serious scrubbing.

Assuming they are mixed:\n\nFirst, the oil should separate from the vinegar water and sugar and float on top.  You could siphon or pour that out.\n\nNext, you could heat up the water, vinegar, and sugar solution slightly.  This should cause the vinegar to vaporize first (it could be the water, you would have to look that up first) and that should separate the vinegar, and the sugar and water would be left.\n\nThen heat that up even more, boiling the water, which will leave the sugar.\n\nIf you still need everything intact, you would have to use a condensor system to collect the vapors and cool it to return to a liquid form.

One possibility is fractional distillation.  This procedure takes the boiling points of each component of a mixture into account.  The mixture is connected to the proper apparatus and placed over heat.  That component with the lower boiling point will evaporate off first and can be collected in a recovery flask.  That material with a higher boiling point will evaporate latest.

basically you're talking about distilling water, which is a purification technique.  collect the water vapor and let it condense. the result is pure water.

The difference in solubility of the components allows for separation.  I don't remember the specifics, but that is the reason.  Water will not have a big enough difference.

put a few drops of rubbing alcohol in and it will dry the water up.

its either desalnation or distillation
