- Magnetically: staples are magnetic and most of sand is not.
- Physically: put the mixture through a sieve of the correct size and the sand will go through, but the staples not.
- Physically: vibrate the container, and the less dense staples will move to the top.
- Chemically: add water and the salt should dissolve. If you don't leave it long enough for the staples to rust, then you can drain the water and retrieve the salt by evaporation.
- Manually: pick out a grain of sand, salt or a staple and put it in an appropriate pile.
- Pre-emptively: find the crazy fool who is mixing the staples and salt and sand, and stop her.

How do you separate a mixture of iron filings salt and sand?
To separate the iron out, use a magnet. First cover the magnet with a paper towel so the iron will come off after it's out of the mixture, then spread the mixture as thinly as you can and move the magnet covered in the paper towel slowly over or through the mixture. Now you only have salt and sand. Put them in a beaker or cup and add water. Stir or heat until the salt dissolves. Pass the water (with the salt dissolved in it) through a filter to catch the sand. Then heat the water until it all evaporates, leaving only the salt at the bottom of the cup. Now you have the three separate substances.

How is the mixture of sand and iron filling is separated with the help of magnet?
use a magnet to get the iron filings out. then add water to the salt and sand and use a funnel and filter paper to separate the sand from the now salty water catch the water from the funnel in a glass bowl . place the glass bowl on top of a gauze which is balanced on a tripod which under that is a bunsen burner on it's hottest flame. the water will evaporate and you will be left with the salt

Why might you need to separate sand and salt?
Salt may need to separated from sand so the sand can be used to make mortar for construction applications (like a brick wall). Salt in sand will "kill" the strength and resilience of brick or block mortar, and no one with any sense will use sand with salt in it to mix up cement. Bad idea. There may be other reasons for separating salt from sand. And it is probably best done by "washing out" that salt. Salt will, as you probably realize, dissolve in water and sand will not. A continuous wash with fresh water will remove most all the salt hiding in the sand.
How are sand and salt different?
Sand is made up of silicon dioxide and (table)salt is made up of sodium chloride. There are many types of salt (eg. potassium flouride, magnesium chloride), but they are mainly formed when a metal reacts with a halogen.

' can you separate a mixture of sand salt and sawdust'?
pour water in the cup, the saw dust flouts up the sand stays at the bottom
Salt water tank im setting up for fresh water and the guy gave you 2 buckets of live sand that is dried out and has been for quite some time can you use that sand for the bottom of the fresh?
I would not recommend using the sand from a salt-water aquarium in a fresh-water tank. There is probably a deadly concentration of salt remaining in the sand.You might be able to rinse the salt out of the sand by running water through the sand, and letting the water dissolve the salt and carry it away. Two or three thorough washings ought to reduce the salt concentration in the sand down to something that the fish can tolerate.Of course, sand isn't that expensive; it may be cheaper in the long run to buy clean aquarium gravel that doesn't have salt in it.
How will you separate all the components of a mixture of a sand and salt?
The sand can be filtered out. So you are left with a solution of salt in water. To separate those, you can heat it up so the water evaporates and you are left with solid salt crystals. The evaporated water can be gained by condensating it on a cold surface.

How would you separate a mixture of sand an salt?
Pour water into the mixture, let the salt dissolve.Then, put the wet-salty water-sand mixture through a sifter/filter.Take out the sand from the filter and dry it. COMPONENT 1 - SANDBoil the salt water solution and evaporate the water. The residue will be salt. COMPONENT 2 SALTDissolve the mixture in water first, before filtering the resultant solution. The residue is the sand, while the filtrate is the salt solution.
