It really depends on which two liquids you are try to separate. The most basic method would be distillation, or boiling one of the liquids and collecting the condensation. If the liquids don't mix well, i.e., oil and water, a centrifuge can be used to separate the two.

One common separation technique for two colorless liquids is distillation. This involves heating the mixture to vaporize the liquid with the lower boiling point, then condensing the vapor back into liquid form to collect it separately. This exploits the difference in boiling points between the two liquids to separate them.
That would depend on what the liquids are and their relative properties. There are many ways to separate two substances; a list can be found at the related links.

distillation. Distillation takes advantage of the different boiling points of the liquids in the mixture to vaporize and then condense them back into separate components.
You can separate two immiscible liquids using a technique called liquid-liquid extraction, where you add a solvent that one of the liquids is soluble in. By shaking the mixture, the two liquids will separate into distinct layers based on their densities, allowing you to collect the layers separately.
In the case of a homogeneous mixture of two miscible liquids, their separation requires a method that can differentiate between the two substances based on their unique properties, such as boiling points in distillation. However, for a mixture of two immiscible liquids, their distinct separation is easier due to their natural tendency to separate into distinct layers based on density differences.
Fractional distillation would be the most effective process to separate two liquids with different molecular polarities. In this method, the liquids are heated to their respective boiling points, vaporized, and then condensed back into liquid form. This separation process works based on the different boiling points of the liquids due to their varying polarities.
