To separate those three components you must first separate the sand from the water. The easiest and simplest way is to pass the water through a filter. This will leave you with the hot salt water. From here, all you have to do is evaporate the water so that only the salt is left. If you need to collect the water you can boil the water in a pot with a lid, slightly ajar, and let the condensed water collect in a separate container.

A hot plate will separate salt water.


What wil happen if you mixed salt and hot water and sand and hot water?

If by salt you mean sodium chloride(table salt) then it will simply dissolve into the hot water. The sand however is heavier than salt and not soluble. It will just sink to the bottom of whatever may contain the water.


How do you separate salt water solution?

You heat it hot enough to evaporate the water and end up with salt.


Why you able to separate the salt from the salt water solution?

Dont get me wrong, but you seem to be asking how to separate salt from water. I think if you evaporate water, the salt cannot evaporate, and it stays behind. However, if the light is really hot, it will evaporate the salt along with the water. (Example: If you put salt and water in a dish and hold it on top of a lit candle, the light is hot enough to evaporate water, but not hot enough to evaporate salt.

How do you get salt out of rocks by using water?

First you must dip the rock in the water(hot) and that will make the salt and water into a mixture...this makes salt wateruse simple evapuration to separate the salt from the water!Hope i helped!!


Will heat separate water and salt?

Yes it can, the heat will evaporate the water, leaving behind salt crystals. (Be carefull as when heating the water with the dissolved salt in, the hot water can "spit" and it can hurt abit,) :} Hope this helped x


How can you separate gravel and water?

Sift to separate everything from the gravel. Then use a magnet (If needed) to pull out the iron. Now you are left with sand and salt. Dump this mixture into water. The sand should sink to the bottom. The salt should dissolve. Pour the mixture through filter paper to catch the sand. Boil the water and it will evaporate. Now you are left with salt.


What equipment used to separate salt water of the mixture magnet balance funnel or hot plate?

I believe it is a hotplate


How do you get sand and salt apart?

It depends on what you would like to do with the two resulting products. This is a simple problem to solve because of a fundamental reality of the two items you are trying to separate...one dissolves in water...and one does not. "Pure" sand is primarily composed of Silicon Dioxide (the primary component of typical window glass) with some other mineral elements...none of which appreciably dissolve in water... Salt, on the other hand, readily dissolves in water (to a greater degree with increasing water temperature). Thus, to "separate" sand from salt...the easiest way is simply to put the sand in some kind of filter (coffee filter?) and run hot water over it while mixing it around (to make sure you have "extracted" all of the embedded salt). If you simply want to "clean" the sand, this would work fine and you could just let the saltwater run into the drain. If, however, you are trying to "extract" the salt and retain it for some purpose, you would have to catch the hot saltwater runoff from the process in some type of vessel and then simply either allow the water to evaporate or boil it off and the salt crystals would remain in the vessel.
