First you mix both chalk and salt in water. From the solution that you get, you can filter the chalk out because it is non soluble in water. As for the salt, all there is to do is to just evaporate the water out.

How could you separate a mixture of rice and marbles?

If we're talking about normal rice-sized rice and standard glass marbles, it's not much of a problem; it would be like separating horses from cats. So let's suppose the "marbles" are chips of metamorphic limestone, cunningly carved to resemble grains of rice. 1. Since rice is less dense that marble, we could irrigate (flush with water) the rice-marble mixture. At some velocity, the rice would be washed away while the marble would remain. 2. We could just a stream of air the same way. 3. We could expose the mixture to a colony of ants, who would carry away the rice and leave the marble.
