How do you separate coke and water?
distillation will always work where the water has the lower boiling point. be careful! sugar is flammable near the end of the process.
How did you separate the solids from the liquids?
Err, well Solids are called Solids because there solid (unbreakable) unless you burn (melt) the solid but this can only work with some solids eg plastic, also sometimes you can snap solids eg Chocolate bar. But most Solids are not separatable. You could also use things like magnets which sort of attach things that are metal- only works if things are metal. ((SCF)) Solids can dissolve in solutions. For examples sugar dissolve in water. Now lets take a mixture of two solids for example sand and sugar. If you mix sand with water it doesn't dissolve. However the sugar will. If you put your sand/sugar mixture in water, the sand will still be in the solid form but the sugar will be in solution (dissolved in water). To get the sand you just need to filter the solution (a bit like when you cook pasta and get rid of the water by sieving it). You will get the solid sand in on your filter paper. You also can get the sugar back. After filtering, only sugar will be remianing in solution. By evaporating the water, solid crystals of sugar will appear. Et voila! That's how you can separate two solids. When two solids dissolve in the same solvents, that becomes more complicated. As the person who answered before me said, sometimes you can use magnets....
Can you separate salt and water?
Salt and water,i believe,can be separated by evaporation which means that the water will be sacrifice.yes you can by ethier distillation or evaporationYes. Distillation is the most common technique used to separate water from any kind of salt (and other impurities).Well, yes because it's a science cateqories some kids can try thid it's a good project to work on thank you please give this a try.
How does aqua sand work?
Aqua Sand is normal sand covered with particles of a sillicon compond called trimethylhyroxysilane.
What is the limitation of simple distillation?
If the chemicals being separated have to close of boiling points, it will not work very well.
Can fractional distillation best separate a mixture of sand and sulfur?
Fractional distillation is not the best separation method for a sand and sulfur mix. It's a very poor choice as it won't work. Use a solvent for the sulfur like dimethyl ether of, say, diethylene glycol. It will take the sulfur into solution and you can wash the solution out of the sand.
How do you separate a mixture of acetone and methanol?
A distillation would probably work pretty well.
Can heat separate sunflower seeds and sand?
To separate sunflower seeds from sand you will need a fine filter, such as a screen. A screen that may work for you are the screens use in the common window.
How can mixtures separated?
the main way of separating a solution is evaporation or distillation, to separate two liquids this doesn't work. someone improve my answer.
How could you separate iron filings from sand?
You can take a magnet and put it around it and it will work

Carlos' teacher has asked him to separate a mixture of sand and iron filings. Which of these methods would correctly separate the mixture?
the correct answer would be -( magnetic attraction of one part )
Is fractional distillation of oil a process of exothermic?
Distillation need heat to work.
How does a steam distillation sloping splash head work?
There is a steam distillation but no sloping splash head?
What is the technique used to separate ethanol from a mixture of ethanol and propanol?
Distillation would work. Those two liquids have different boiling points, and heating it up to the boiling point of the lowest liquid would cause it to boil away, leaving behind the other.

What is the work of a distillery in a sugar plantation?
In a sugar plantation, a distillery is responsible for processing the sugarcane to produce ethanol or rum through the process of fermentation and distillation. The distillery converts the sugarcane juice or molasses into alcohol, which can be used for various purposes such as fuel, beverages, or industrial applications.
