What are three ways to separate the substance in a mixture?

You can separate the substances through filtering, evaporation, and distillation. For example, if you have salt, powdered sulfur and water combined and you want to separate everything, you would mix it all together. Then put filter paper of a cone tube and pour the mixture over it and into a cup. The sulfur granules would stay on top of the filter paper, while the salt dissolves with the water and is poured through with the water. Boil the water until it evaporates, and all that you are left with is salt.
