Because sand is a solid and will be retained by the filter, whereas water is a liquid which will pass through the filter.
The sand is not soluble in the water so it will remain a solid, rather than dissolving.

What properties will you use to separate sand and water?
Sand is insoluble and can be separated by filtration.
When would you use filtration to separate mixtures?
When one can pass through the filter and the other cannot e.g. sand and water, flour and water.
What method of separation would you use to separate water and a fine sand and how?
Separating the nails from the sand is to use a magnet. This works .... and water in a sealed jar, the sand spreads through the water ...... to be crushed to a fine powder before the copper ore.
How would you separate sand an water?
Add them to water. The salt will dissolve, then you can pass the mixture through a filter and separate the sand out. The water can then be heated, it will evaporate and leave the salt behind.
How will you separate a mixtute of salt sand and water?
To separate a mixture of salt, sand, and water, you can use the process of filtration and evaporation. First, pour the mixture into a filter paper or a fine mesh to separate the sand from the water. Then, heat the saltwater solution to evaporate the water, leaving behind the salt crystals.

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

How would you separate the sand and salt from a sample of sea water?
<p>You can separate the sand by filtration, but still the salt (mainly sodium chloride) is dissolved in the water. Then, you can separate the salt from water by distillation. The liquid you collect after water vapor is chilled is distilled water. You can use other methods to separate sand as sedimentation (usually slower than filtration) and salt as reverse osmosis.<p>

What methods do you think you will use to separate sand from salt?
Add water, separate the water from the sand. Let the water evaporate.
Can you separate the cornstarch from water without using filter paper why?
The only way to separate cornstarch and water is my filtration so you would have to use filter paper or something similar.
Which physical property can you use to separate sand and sugar?
Use water. Mix it around, the sugar will dissolve into the water. Use a siv to separate the water and the sand, put the water in a container and wait for the water to evaporate: leaving sugar and sand.
What is the use of sand in water filtration?
It removes the particles of all the other substances in the water like pollutants....
How do you separate sawdust and pumice?
