put water in the mixture, the wood will float and the copper will sink.
:D
Copper is denser than wood.
I would separate copper strands and iron filings by using a magnet. The iron is magnetic, but the copper is not, so the magnet picks up the iron, but leaves the copper behind.

yes
Because you can separate seashells and marbles with your hands and you can't with copper sulfate

To separate copper from its ore, the process is called smelting. The copper and ore are heated and the copper turns to liquid which is then poured from the smelter.
No. Copper and oxygen are two separate elements.

A refinery separates copper from its ore.

Copper and Silver are both elements. However the copper and silver objects you find in everyday life are unlikly to be 100% pure copper or silver. These objects will be made with copper or silver alloyed to other metals to improve its properties or decrease its cost.
You can put the mixture in water where the wood will float and the the iron sink, or separate them with a magnet, where the iron will be attracted and the wood will not.
Copper rods cannot separate zinc from zinc sulphate because copper is less reactive than zinc, and cannot separate the zinc which is more reactive than copper. If you get copper sulphate and add some zinc to it, you will see solid copper appearing on the bottom of the test tube... The copper cannot push out the zinc from the solution and take its place.
