How can you separate clay and sugar using separation techniques?
Let's take a look at the properties of clay and sugar. We know that clay doesn't dissolve in water, but sugar does. So, first, mix this mixture of clay and sugar in a large amount of water and stir. Afterwards, filter the solution. You will get sugar inside the water and the clay is the residue.
How do you separate small clay particles and water?
Just ley the water evaporate and the clay particles will be left over
What method would you use to separate sand and water?
A mixture of clay and water is a physical and not a chemical mixture. Physical means will separate them, and the easiest way to do that is probably just to filter the mixture. The water will pass through an appropriate filter, and the clay will remain. Use three or four coffee filters together and pretty much only some dissolved materials will come through with the water. This will leave the clay behind. Spread out the clay, and it will finish drying by itself.
Is pencil lead a compound or an element or an homogeneous mixture or a heterogeneous mixture?
Pencil lead is actually not lead (Pb) at all, but it is graphite. And graphite is simply carbons atoms. So, no, it is NOT a compound mixture.

How do you separate the mixture of sugar n clay?
You could place the sugar-clay mixture in a wire-mesh sieve, and rinse the mixture with water to dissolve the sugar and remove it from the clay. You would need to do this over a container that would collect the sugar water. Once the sugar is completely dissolved, you could evaporate the water from the sugar water, leaving the sugar behind. The clay would be left behind in the sieve.

What is the name of wet clay?
Slip is a mixture of clay and water. It is used like glue to hold pieces of clay together.
Is clay cohesive?
Yes the particles of clay stick together when not suspended in water- this is what makes it cohesive, however when in water the clay particles separate and so can be held in suspension with almost nul energy!
Does modelling clay absorb water?
