Can you separate the two substances salt and sand?
You can't use the same mixture because,a mixture of sand and water is a heterogeneous mixture.In this mixture the particles are not uniform which means they can't desolve into one an other,but the mixture of salt and water is a homogeneous solution because the particles can be desolve into one another to form a solution.
How do you separate sand salt and sawdust into pure states?
If all three are mixed together you can separate the sawdust from the group with a Sieve filter with holes smaller than the sawdust, but larger than the sand/salt particles. You could then use another sieve, if the sand and salt particles are significantly different in size,...OR add water to the mix....the salt will dissolve into solution leaving the sand behind. Pour off the water and let it evaporate, leaving the salt behind. Put the mixture of sand, salt and sawdust into a quantity of water: the sand will sink to the bottom, sawdust will float and salt will dissolve. Skim off (and dry) the floating sawdust. Pour off the water containing the dissolved salt. This is then heated to cause all the water to evaporate (leaving behind the salt). The remaining residue in the original container (wet sand) can now be dried off with heat.
How do you draw a flow chart of the separation of sand and sawdust?
{Sand+Sawdust}------Sieving--->{Small particles: sand}+{Large particles: sawdust}
How fluids can be distinguished from solids?
A fluid is a substance that continually deforms when shear force is applied to it. Which sand does. Sand can also be moved with fluid handling equipment like pumps, pipes, hoses and tanks. It would be very difficult to "prove" sand isn't a fluid because it acts exactly like one. There are "solid" fluids like gelatin and silly putty...it'd be easier to prove sand is a fluid than to prove it isn't one.
Are the particles in a mixture all the same?
ones which do not bond of chemically react eg. sand salt and water is a mixture. to separate you just filter the sand and then heat the salt and water. they do not chemically combine.
Is salt and sand a liquid?
Because it is made up of small, solid particles.
Is salt and sand a heterogeneous or a homogeneous?
Sand and salt are heterogeneous because you can clearly see the particles and you can't see through them no matter the density.
Why do sand take longer to melt ice then salt?
The reason why it takes sand to melt ice longer than salt does, is because salt draws or absorbs the moisture in the ice faster than sand that just has a rough texture. Yes, there is salt particles in sand but not as much as normal salt by itself.
Where does the salt come from in the Atlantic Ocean?
Salt comes from rocks. When water wears down rocks at the beach particles of sand are washed into the ocean.

What would be theChemical equation for separating sand and salt?
sand+salt=sand salt
Steps in separating table salt from baby powder?
How would you separate a mixture of table salt, sand, and talcum powder? - Quora. Throw the mixture in a sieve that'll let the talc through, but will block the salt and sand grains. Of course this only works if neither the salt nor sand are dust-sized particles. Shake the sieve over a bowl.
Are particles destructitble?
Depends on 'what' particles: sand particles are, and atomic particles are not!
What is biggest sand or silt?
Sand particles are much larger than silt particles.
How do particles in solutions differ from those in solutions?
particles in solutions are dissolved. Unless the particles are too big, then they would just sink to the bottom E.G sand wouldn't dissolve in water, but salt would. particals in soulutions are dissolved
