Is there a word to refer to the quality of an object (or person) to distinguish other distinct objects?

Well the grammatically correct version of 'separatableness' would be 'separability'.
However I think 'uniqueness' or 'distinctiveness' fits what you're looking for better.

Wouldn't distinctiveness solely mean that the object in consideration is different from other objects? I want to say that the object has the ability to distinguish between other objects.– mysanMar 22, 2018 at 17:31

Oh so you're saying you have object A, which has the ability to tell the difference between objects B and C. You want to describe that ability of A?– EthanMar 23, 2018 at 8:07
I'd go with unique, or uniqueness
