A simple filter would be suitable for separating sand and water. An alternative would be to evaporate the water, leaving the sand behind.

What separation technique may be used to separate a mixt and ure of sand and water and what is the explanation of the process?
evaporation of the water. Water boils at a relatively low temp. sand does not, so sand would be left behind.
What is used to separate sugar and water?
evaporation is used to separate sugar and water.
Separation method for sand and water?
The mixture of and and water is a heterogeneous mixture. There is two steps to separate: Sedimentation: The sand will settle at the bottom of the beaker Decantation: Pour the water slowly out of the container leaving the sand behind. This water is called "supernatant" liquid.
What are the physical means used to separate mixtures?
copper from sand, magnet sand from water, filter paper water from salt. evaporation
How you would separate a mixture of sand sugar and iron fillings?
Use a magnet to remove the iron, then pour what is left into water. The sugar should dissolve. pour the solution through a sieve to remove the sand and gravel. A fine sieve can be used to separate the gravel and sand.
Describe a pocedure that could be used to separate a mixture consisting of sand and salt?
Place the mixture in water and separate the sand from the water if you want the salt. alow the water to evaporate, and you have salt and sand separated.
What method of separation would be used to separate sand from water?
Simply,just get a filter paper add this mixture and as sand is insoluble in water it will be collected in the filter paper as a residue (it will not pass).However the water will pass as a filtrate so we can now take these two separately

Is distillation used to separate sand salt iron filings and water?
I dont know but i believe it is crystallization.
How would you separate a mixture of sand an salt?
Pour water into the mixture, let the salt dissolve.Then, put the wet-salty water-sand mixture through a sifter/filter.Take out the sand from the filter and dry it. COMPONENT 1 - SANDBoil the salt water solution and evaporate the water. The residue will be salt. COMPONENT 2 SALTDissolve the mixture in water first, before filtering the resultant solution. The residue is the sand, while the filtrate is the salt solution.
How are meshes and sand sieves used in water treatment works?
Meshes and sand sieves are used to separate insoluble (non dissolvable) particles from contaminated water (eg. lake, sea water) in preparation for further treatment. An answer by a 13 year old girl :)
How was a rocker box used?
To separate gold from sand
What apparatus used to separate sand and water mixture?
Sieving is an adequate method.
How can physical properties be used to separate iron sand salt and water?
Use a magnet to remove the iron, a filter or screen to remove the sand, and a still to remove the salt.
What is used to separate sugar and water?
evaporation is used to separate sugar and water.
How can the crystalline substances be removed?
This sounds like a physical separation question where the student receives a beaker of sand and salt or sand and sugar and is asked to separate the two substances. The technique is to filter the mixture with water. The sand stays in the funnel, but the salt or sugar crystals dissolve in the water and are pulled through to the flask below. If you need to separate the salt or sugar from the water used for filtration, use a hotplate and evaporation dish to boil away the water.
