A strong magnet or electromagnet can be used to hold the iron oxide(rust) in place as the water is poured off. Care should be taken to bring all of the rust near the magnet in order to collect it all.

How can physical properties be used to separate iron sand salt and water?
Use a magnet to remove the iron, a filter or screen to remove the sand, and a still to remove the salt.
What are the steps to separate iron filings sand and salt?
Hold a magnet over it and the iron will fly out of the salt and stick to it, and the salt will stay there.
How do you separate iron powder and salt?
Mix the salt and powder together in water until the salt dissolves. Pour the mixture through filter paper to separate the powder from the water. Boil the water so it evaporates and leaves the salt behind. If the powder is iron, you can use a magnet to separate them rather than mixing in water.
A homogeneous mixture contains the following substances mothballs salt iron fillings and sand how will you separate one from another?
Use a magnet to remove the iron, then distill the water, leaving the salt behind as the water is condensed into another container.
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.
How do you separate iron filings salt water and salt?
Help me
What is the reaction of adding Iron oxide to an acid?
salt and water. Salt depends on acid
How would you separate a mixture of water sand salt and iron filings into its four components?
In solution, the salt will be dissolved in the water, the sand and iron will settle to the bottom of the container. Separate out the water, evaporate the water and the salt will remain, separate the sand and iron filings with a magnet.

Is FeO a salt?
Yes, FeO is a salt.
What do you use to separate salt iron filings and water?
A magnet.
How do you separate iron nails and salt?
One way to separate iron nails and salt is by using a magnet. Since iron is magnetic, you can move a magnet over the mixture and the iron nails will be attracted to the magnet, allowing you to separate them from the salt. Another method is to dissolve the mixture in water, as salt dissolves readily, and then use filtration to separate the solid iron nails from the dissolved salt solution.
What makes salt water rust a nail?
The Oxygen in the water reacts with the iron in the nail, making Ferrous Oxide
How do you separate iron filling from salt and sand?
Clearly, a magnet will separate the iron filings from the mixture, leaving just the salt and sand. Then you could run water through that to dissolve the salt, leaving just the sand. If you collect the water and evaporate it, you'll be left with the salt.
Can you separate the salt and iron fillings?
Yes. You can add water to dissolve the salt (the iron will not dissolve). Then pour off the solution, leaving the iron filings behind. If you want to now retrieve the salt, you can just evaporate the water.
How will you separate a mixture of salt and sand will it be different if the mixture consists of iron filling instead of salt explain?
we can separate salt and sand by solving the mixture into water salt is soluble but sand is not .
How do you separate salt and iron shaving?
I can think of two ways: 1. Pour in some water. The salt will dissolve and the iron won't, then filter out the water. 2. Grab a magnet. The iron will stick to the magnet, the salt won't. Chemistry is fun!
