Is salt and vinegar a mixture and why?

It is a mixture. Vinegar itself is a mixture of water and acetic acid with traces of other compounds that give it the flavor. Salt is another compound that will also go into solution in the water (vinegar is about >90% water). So you have quite a complex mixture of a minimum 3 different compounds.

How would you separate salt from crisps?

Salt dissolved in vinegar creates a mild solution of hydrochloric acid, the same acid our stomachs produce to help us digest food. However, the vinegar (acetic acid) is applied to the chips in a crystalline, powdered form -- so the salt and vinegar do not combine there. Only after contacting liquid (such as saliva) can the compounds combine. Therefore, technically, the only acid that is on salt and vinegar crisps, or chips, is the crystalline form of vinegar. Still, in crystalline form, the acetic acid is very potent. Eating a large number of chips without drinking something or wiping one's mouth can be damaging to the mouth and lips. Otherwise, they are quite harmless and tasty.
