It maybe... there are other techniques such as crystallisation, but this one is the best for me

Would filtering be suitable to separate the substances oil and water?
Not really, The best way is to use a separating funnel.
Is an ice cube melting the best example of evaporation?
No, boiling water is the best example of evaporation along with any form of steam production. Answer In relation to the ice cube which will first produce water. It will be the water that evaporates. When an ice cube is placed in a warm room it becomes coated with a layer of water, it is no longer a true ice cube.
When water leaves the surfaces of plants to enter the atosphere what is the best and most specific term that is applied to describe this process?
evaporation
How do you separate a solid and liqiud that form a solution?
There are many ways to separate a solid from a solution, one way is to let the contents of the solution settle or to separate, after separation, from a solution of the residue in evaporable materials and/or solvents with the addition of up to 20% by weight of high-boiling hydrocarbons that are inert under evaporation conditions of the evaporable materials, heating the mixture to evaporation temperature under vacuum, whereby the evaporable materials evaporate, are drawn off and condensed, and the residue is obtained as a free-flowing solid, the residue solution being introduced onto a stirred bed of granular solid material kept at the evaporation temperature.
What is the best part of the water cycle?
the water cycle has seven parts to it, yet the most important process is precipitation, because it brings the water back down to earth to restart the cycle. after all, without the water the would be no water cycle
What would be the best method to separate these substances Given a homogeneous liquid mixture of sodium chloride (salt) and water?
Heating the solution water is deleted by evaporation.
Would evaporation be the best way to separate rice from water?
Not really if there is a lot of water. Pass it all through a fine mesh (= a "sieve"). That gets rid of the excess water, but leaves the rice wet or damp. Leave it open to the air to dry off (evaporation), perhaps warming slightly to speed it up.
What is a suitable method for separating salt from seawater?
Allow the water to evaporate, leaving behind the salt would be effective for separating salt and water in a mixture.
What property chemical or physical would best describe the process of water evaporating from the oceans to begin the water cycle?
evaporation is a physical change
What is a solute best recovered by evaporation of water?
Milk. Yes.
What is the best measurement in an evaporation experiment?
ammount of water evaporated.
What science equipment would be best to use during an investigation about evaporation where a hot plate is being used to evaporate water?
safty gloves
What is the best explanation for the process of transpiration in plants?
It is the evaporation of water from leaf stomata, which helps in xylem transport
What could best be used to accomplish recovering the salt from a mixture of salt and water?
Evaporation
Is sugar best separated by evaporation or filtration?
Both - add water, dissolve, filter, evaporate the water off.
Would filtering be suitable to separate the substances oil and water?
Not really, The best way is to use a separating funnel.
How could you calculate the evaporation rate in a farm based on the humidity and temperature?
(From discussion) From a chemical engineers point of view to calculate it you would need to know the amount of rain that had fallen, the temperature changes throughout the period of evaporation. The mass of water in each kg of topsoil. the surface area of the farm. Then look into whether crops increase the rate of evaporation due to the increase in surface area. The best way to measure the evaporation would be a ground probe that tells you the soil composition that is water.
