How is salt separated from sea water?

Salt can be separated from seawater through a process called evaporation. When seawater is left to evaporate, the water will turn into vapor and leave the salt behind, which can then be collected. This method is commonly used in salt production.


How is sodium hydroxide manufactured?

Sea water is a free and rich source of sodium chloride. Electrolyzing a sodium chloride solution is a popular method of manufacturing sodium hydroxide. The same method is used in industrial method, and another advantage is that the manufacturing of two other important substances, namely hydrogen and chlorine gases.


If you had a bucket that contained a mixture of sand and sea shells how might you use the physical properties of the seashells to separate them from the sand?

One method is to use the difference in density between the sand and sea shells. You can fill the bucket with water and let the shells float while the sand sinks to the bottom. Another method is to use sieving where the sea shells are larger and can be separated from the smaller sand particles using a sieve.


At what temperature does sea water boil?

Sea water boils at a higher temperature than fresh water due to the presence of salt. The boiling point of sea water is typically around 212°F (100°C), but can vary slightly depending on the salinity of the water.


Which is the best example of a solution blood or sea water or milk or paint?

Blood is the best example of a solution, as it is composed of a solvent (plasma) and solutes (such as red and white blood cells, platelets, and proteins) that are uniformly distributed throughout. Sea water, milk, and paint are colloids or suspensions, which do not meet the strict definition of a solution.
