Salt may need to separated from sand so the sand can be used to make mortar for construction applications (like a brick wall). Salt in sand will "kill" the strength and resilience of brick or block mortar, and no one with any sense will use sand with salt in it to mix up cement. Bad idea. There may be other reasons for separating salt from sand. And it is probably best done by "washing out" that salt. Salt will, as you probably realize, dissolve in water and sand will not. A continuous wash with fresh water will remove most all the salt hiding in the sand.
What else can I help you with?
How might one separate a mixture of sand and salt?
If you don't care about losing the salt dump water in it
How might you separate a mixture of a salt and fine sand?
Salt dissolves in water, sand does not. Mix water with the solids, pour off the water, and sand is left behind, Evaporate the water by boiling it, and the salt will be left.
What separation can be used to separate salt iron and sand?
A magnet can be used to separate iron (which is magnetic) from salt and sand. Next, water can be added to dissolve the salt, leaving behind the sand. The remaining sand can be filtered out to further separate it from the salt solution.
A container contains a mixture of sand salt and pebbles.how can each substance be separated from the other?
To separate sand from salt and pebbles, use a sieve to filter out the larger pebbles first, then add water to dissolve the salt and separate it from the sand through filtration. To separate salt from sand and pebbles, dissolve the salt in water and then evaporate the water to obtain the salt crystals, leaving the sand and pebbles behind. To separate pebbles from sand and salt, use a sieve or filtration to separate the larger pebbles from the sand and salt mixture.
What methods do you think you will use to separate sand from salt?
One method to separate sand from salt is by dissolving the mixture in water to dissolve the salt, then filtering the solution to separate the sand from the saltwater. Another way is to use a sieve to physically separate the larger particles of sand from the smaller particles of salt.
How will you separate a mixture of salt and sand will it be different if the mixture consists of iron filling instead of salt explain?
To separate a mixture of salt and sand, you can use the method of dissolving the salt in water and then filtering the sand out. If the mixture consists of iron filings instead of salt, you can use a magnet to attract and separate the iron filings from the sand. This method works since iron is magnetic while sand is not.
2 ways to separate a mixture of salt sand and water?
Use filtration to separate the sand from the water and salt. Then use evaporation to separate the salt from the water. Use distillation to evaporate the water, leaving the salt behind. Then use filtration to separate the remaining sand from the salt.
How do you separate sand and common salt?
Salt is soluble in water, sand is not soluble; filter the solution.
Describe a pocedure that could be used to separate a mixture consisting of sand and salt?
To separate sand and salt, you can use the process of filtration. First, add water to the mixture to dissolve the salt. Then, pour the mixture through a filter to separate the sand, which will be left behind, from the salt solution that passes through. Finally, evaporate the water from the salt solution to retrieve the salt.
How do you separate white sand from salt?

What separate sand and salt solution?

How do you separate sand grains from salt grains?
You can separate sand grains from salt grains by combining the mixture with water to dissolve the salt. The sand will settle at the bottom of the container, allowing you to pour off the salt solution. The sand can then be dried and collected.
