Use a magnet to remove the iron filings. Filter the remainder to separate the insoluble chalk powder from the water. Wash and dry the iron filings as they will be contaminated. Dry the chalk powder to remove traces of water.

How do you separate a mixture of sand salt chalk dust and amp iron filings.?

First remove iron filings with a magnet. That leaves sand, salt and chalk dust. Add water which dissolves the salt, and filter leaving the sand and chalk dust on the filter paper. Put that back in water and add acid to dissolve the chalk dust (CaCO3) leaving the sand as a solid. Filter to obtain the sand. The chalk dust will now be in the acid as CO2 and H2O and the Ca salt of the acid.

One way to separate iron powder and sulfur powder is by using a magnet. Since iron is magnetic, you can attract and separate the iron powder from the sulfur powder. Another method is to use a technique called sublimation, where the sulfur powder is heated to convert it into a gas, leaving behind the iron powder.
