Describe a procedure to separate a mixture of salt, sand, and water.

Think of sedimentation and decantation

Okay, so If I was to pour the cup into a filter the water would go straight through but the sand would be left in the filter?

Yes, what I don't think the decantation or sedimentation process uses filters, look it up :D!

Okay, Thank You!!

Pour it through a filter to get the sand. Dry the water to get the salt. Say goodbye o the water evaporated into the air. :D
