Sugar and water are separated by crystallisation. Though there are other methods this is the easy and obvious one.

What is a substance that can be be separated by physical means?
It wouldn't be a single substance, it would be a mixture.
Suppose you were given an unknown liquid and asked to determine if it was an element a compound or a mixture What would you do How would this help you find out what it was?
If I was given an unknown liquid and asked to determine if it was an element, a compound, or a mixture I would heat the unknown liquid up to see if any compounds separated from the unknown liquid. After that I would get a microscope and look to see if it is a pure element. Then I would get a Platelet separation machine and put the liquid in the machine to see if the liquid separated. Thats how I would determine if the an unknown liquid is an element, a compound, or a mixture.
Which process would be most appropriate to separated a mixture?
Filtration. :)
What is the density in siltstone?
Silt is a mixture, not a pure substance. The density would depend on the mixture of minerals that make up the silt. Sand (quartz) has a density of about 2.5 g/cm3. If the silt is mostly sand then that would be a good approximation of the density.
Which separation technique would you use to separate the mixture of sodium chloride and water?
Evaporation
Is a salad a heterogeneous mixture?
Yes. Salad is a heterogeneous mixture. Though it uses many differnet ingredients they never combine and can be separated. An apple pie would be an homogeneous mixture because the ingredients combine when baked and can't be separated.
Apply Concepts and enspIn general when would you use filtration to separate a mixture When would you use distillation to separate a mixture?
- Filtration is a method of separation when we want to separate solids from a liquid.- Distillation is a method of separation when we want to separate the components of a liquid mixture, relying on the differences between boiling points.
Would it be possible to separate the mixture of iron and silver by heating it?
Iron can be separated with a magnet.
An example of a solution being a mixture?
An example of a solution being a mixture would be muddy water or saltwater because they can be physically separated.
What is a liquid-liquid solution that can be separated by distillation?
A liquid-liquid solution that can be separated by distillation would be alcohol and water. Water will boil at a higher temperature allowing separation.
What physical separation would allow to separate a mixture of muddy water?
It is possible to filter mud out of water.
What is the position of zero force if a positive and negative charges are separated by a distance?
The position of zero force if positive and negative charges are separated by a distance would be at half of the separation distance.
