if it is a mixture of oil water and sand first take the cotton balls and dip them into the water then squeeze them out in to another container till you can see little to none floating around in the water then boil the water till theres only the sand left or pour the water throe a strainer.

If the solute is a solid and the solvent is volatile, by evaporation to get the solid, or

distillation if you also want the solvent.

For some aqueous solutions, inverse osmosis process.

For small amounts of ionic solutes, through ionic exchange process.

If the solution involves two liquids you separate them by fractional distillation taking advantage of difference of volatility's.

If the solution is solid: a) if components are soluble in some solvent, they are dissolved and then separated by fractional crystallization.

b) if one component is soluble in a solvent, that separates the soluble from the insoluble.

c) some solids can be melted and then slowly cooled down and get fractional crystallization.

If mixture of gases by partial liquefaction, and for analytical purposes by chromatography.

Boil it to evaporate the solvent off (ideally use distillation so the solvent is collected) leaving the solute behind.

Do components of a solution separate on standing?

No, the components of a solution do not separate on standing. If that happens, then the mixture is heterogeneous and is not a solution.

Let it sit. Sand is more dense than water, and will sink to the bottom of the solution.
