Question

I WILL FAN AND MEDAL BUT I NEED THIS QUICK!
Describe a procedure to separate a mixture of salt, sand, and water.

Answer 1

Think about solubility.

Are sand and salt both soluble in water?

If not, could you use filtration to remove one from the water?

Answer 2

but would that still be correct? i mean, to dissolve the salt? because technically its not separated from the water @aaronq

Answer 3

right, but then you can boil off the water

Answer 4

and then the salt will be left behind? @aaronq

Answer 5

yep, salt has a really really high boiling point so it's not going anywhere

Answer 6

Answer 7
