sand is opaqe,water is transparent
First add the sand to water.
Then filter the sand from water by a filter paper. This process is called filtration.
Filtration is the process by which an insoluble solid is separated from a liquid.
Sand will remain as residue on the filter paper and the water will be in in the beaker.
Sand will be wet, so leave the sand outside so that the water will evaporate.
Sedimentation - The process by which heavy particles settle down and get separated from the liquid is known as sedimentation.
The sand settles at the bottom and the water will be on top, although this method will only allow the layers to get separated. So you won't get the sand and water in separate beakers.
Decantation- Pouring out the clear liquid leaving behind the sediment is known as decantation.
First add the sand to water. The mud will settle at the bottom of the beaker. The water will be on top, so now pour out the liquid to another beaker.
You must be careful while doing this step, because if you disturb the solution the sand will get mixed with water. Then again you have to wait till the sand settles down at the bottom of the beaker.
Let it sit. Sand is more dense than water, and will sink to the bottom of the solution.
by filtration
- Put this mixture in water and vigourously stir.- Salt is dissolved.- Sand is settled.- Poppy seeds float.
get a strainer to get the sand out silly :)
add all the components and mix them in a glass. strain the water from strainer in other glass and the sand will be separated. boil the water until it evaporates fully. water will be separated and the salt will be left.
A simple filter would be suitable for separating sand and water. An alternative would be to evaporate the water, leaving the sand behind.
Yes, separating sand from water be done by distillation.
In solution, the salt will be dissolved in the water, the sand and iron will settle to the bottom of the container. Separate out the water, evaporate the water and the salt will remain, separate the sand and iron filings with a magnet.

You can separate them by filtration and it would help because when you add water the sand would stay because you would have to add cold water so that the sand will stay and the salt will go through.

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.

You just need to use filter paper. use the filter paper than just pour the water and sand on the filter paper. the sand will go to the filter paper while the water will go straight to the beaker or anything below it. That is how you separate it. To separate sand and water you could pour the mixture through a filter. The water would pass through the filter but the sand would remain on top of the filter. If you didn't need to save the water you could evaporate the water and leave the dry sand behind. Or allow the sand to settle and carefully pour off the water first. Then allow the remaining water to evaporate.
