Evaporation of the water?
you cant:P
Oil and water will not mix as water is a polar substance and oil is nonpolar. Polar substances will only dissolve other polar substances or ionic substances, but not nonpolar substances. Thus, they stay separate, and water is more dense then oil, which is why the oil floats (same principals as to why anything floats)
Not really, The best way is to use a separating funnel.
On the basis of their solubility in particular substances.

The molecules of a dissolved substance are surrounded by water molecules and are not visible as separate substances.
A substance that is chemically combined cannot be separated physically.In some situations, you can and can't separate combined substances physically. For example, you can separate sand from rocks physically, but you cannot separate water and ice cream, even though the substances did not undergo a chemical change, because the water soaked into the ice cream.

coffee grounds, water, oil, and salt. We have access to all of the high school lab equipment, but were given no directions on how to separate these substances. I know how to separate salt from water by evaporation, but I have no clue how to separate any of the others.
Yes, Through evaporation. Put chems in water, disolve and evaporate the water.
If you think about it, you can figure it out. Does one of the substances float in water and the other one sink?
Ys, the process is called decantation.
1) To separate bacteria and dirt from water 2) To ensure that air is free of dust and other substances

The water is heated and vaporizes, but the substance dissolved in it can't evaporate and is left behind.
