Question
What is the process of chemical differentiation?
The separation of different chemical compounds into different regions of the solar nebula; e.g., rocky grains in the inner nebula, icy grains in the outer nebula.
The sinking of heavy material to the center of a planet or other object and the rising of lighter material toward the surface.
The condensation of different chemical compounds at different temperatures and therefore at different times—iron first, rock next, and ices last.
A separation of different chemical compounds into different types of grains in any given part of the solar nebula; e.g., grains of ice, rock, and iron.

Explanation / Answer
Option b is correct.
Chemical differentiation is a process by which heavier molten elements sink to the center of any planet and lighter elements like silicon, aluminium comes to the top surface.
