Add water, stir til sugar dissolves, fiter repeatedly until the water is clean, slow evap to retrieve the sugar. Add the dust and sand from the filter (most will have separated pretty well, sand on bottom etc) into a cup/beaker/bucket etc and fill with water, put it in a deep tray and add water very slowly to the bucket until the sawdust has all spilt over the edge. Your sand will be in the bucket and sawdust will have overflowed into the tray.

Crystallization is one way to separate sugar from sugar solution.
How do you separate a mixture of pepper sugar and sawdust?
pepper actually floats only some goes to the bottom in a water solution so after that you would need to filter the pepper and sawdust because it is larger and then evaporate the water.
What is the method of separating iron filling and powdered sugar mixtures?
It can easily be separated by the process of magnetic separation.
Separation of sugar and water?
Salt does not desolve in pure grain alcohol. Put the mixture in the solution, then filter through filter paper or a coffee filter. then evaporate the alcohol and your left with salt in the filter and sugar in the other end.
You can separate sugar from sand because sugar is?
Soluble in water, sand is not.

Use a magnet to separate the iron filings, filter the remaining sawdust and sugar water solution, evaporate the water from the sugar water solution.

What is a separating mixture of sugar powdered iron and sawdust?
Yes - First, you pour water into the mixture, and mix thoroughly. The sugar will dissolve into the water, but the sawdust won't. Then you get filter paper and make a cone with it (fold it into a quarter then push at the sides), then put it in a funnel and put that in a beaker/pot (depends on amount of mixture). When all of the water has drained through the paper, you will be left with sawdust on the filter-paper and sugar-water in the beaker-pot. To separate the sugar from the water, heat the water up until it has all evaporated, leaving sugar crystals in the pot/beaker.
What separation technique would you use to separate bird seeds and sugar?
Mix in a little water, dissolve the sugar. Filter to separate the bird seed. Evaporate the water and the sugar crystals will reappear.

What method would be used to separate iron fillings from sugar?
A magnet will cause the iron to adhere and separate. Or adding water will dissolve the sugar and the iron can be filtered out and then the water evaporated from the sugar.
How can you separate salt and sugar already dissolve in water?
It will be difficult to separate them in something that they both dissolve into (like water or ethanol). You can try changing the temperature and the sugar may precipitate out, depending on the sugar. To get a complete separation I would evaporated the water first and just separate the salt and sugar. Then you can separate the solids by dissolving the sugar into a polar solvent like toluene. NaCl will not dissolve in toluene but all of the sugar should.
Is there a method to separate a mixture of table sugar and water?
Evaporation is one of the easier ways.
