A fine sieve.
With a fine mesh sieve.
A sieve is a kitchen tool. It is for say if i had pasta than i would put the cooked pasta in it and the waterwould drain out because the sieve has little holes in the bottom
Use a sieve to allow the sand to pass through, leaving the iron nails behind. Or use a magnet to attract the nails and remove them from the sand.
I have just been doing this in science! The simple way is of course to just pick out the shells ;) but the real sciencey way would be to use a sieve. This will allow the sand to go through, but leave the shells in the sieve!
The sand will fill up and burst
Sand and gold are separated by a sieve. You put the sand in with he gold and shake it. Than the sand falls throuh the holes of the sieve leaving behind he gold.
Put it through a sieve
you need to put it through a sieve
Yes you can sieve sand.
Put the mixture in water and wait for all of the salt to dissolve. Then filter out the sand and wait for the water to evaporate in the sand/water solution to get the sand and salt separately.
Wash the pebbles and sand in a sieve. This will wash through the sand and keep the larger pebbles in the sieve.
Pour the mixture through a sieve. The salt and sand will fall through the sieve, leaving just the stones. Then put the sand-salt mixture in water. Stir it until the salt is completely dissolved. Then pour it through a filter. The sand will remain in the filter, and the dissolved salt will pass through.
You would likely use a sieve and sift the material. The holes in the sieve can let the sand out while holding the stones and pebbles. If you don't have a sieve, you can put them in a container and shake the container. The larger items end up on top and you can pick them out by hand.
As long as the particles of sand and pebbles are of different size, you can separate them using a sieve (sifter). The smaller sand particles will pass through the sieve whereas the pebble molecules will not. This is the process that occurs in sifters sold as children's toys.
