In order to separate sand and salt without filter paper you need to place mixture in container with an excess of water. You use an excess of the solvent so that you decant the salt water with a pipette or what ever you are using. Remember you will want to stir the mixture so salt goes into solution. You can repeat adding water to your liking and removing more salt water and then dry the sand.

Which of these could you use to separate a mixture of sand and salt?

Salt is soluble in water where as sand is not. Using a fine paper filter in a funnel the salt can be removed from the sand by rinsing the mixture with water and then the salt can be retreived by evaporating the water. Hope I'm not doing your homework for you


How do you separate a mixture of charcoal from salt?

put this mixture in water. salt will dissolve in water. now filter this solution with a filter paper. we will get particles of charcoal on the filter paper as residue. now heat the solution of salt and water .the water will evaporate leaving behind salt. thus the mixture of charcoal and salt is separated.


How do you separate broken Glass water and salt?

You filter the mixture using a filter paper. By this the salt solution will get separated from glass bits. Then you take the salt solution and heat it. The water will get evaporated leaving salt behind.


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.

Because the salt dissolves in the water whereas sand does not.


Why salt can't be separated from salt water by using filter paper?

The dissolved salt will go right through. Anything dissolved in water can't be separated out using filter paper. However, if you evaporate off the water, the salt remains in the container, and you can separate it that way.

Consider a mixture of sand salt and water how can you make use of the differences in properties of these materials to separate them?

Filter out the sand using filter paper. Boil away the water. You are left with salt.


Why do you separate a mixture of salt water and sand?

Since salt is soluble in water then you have to separate the mixture from sand first and this is done by filtration. The sand will be left in the filter paper and the filtererd solution would be that of salt and water. To get the salt you would then have to heat the solution and the water will evaporate leaving the salt behind.Filter Paper


How can you separate sand water and salt?

Separate the sand grains using a fine mesh. Separate salt from the water by using evaporation (leaving the salt crystals behind), and condensation (turning the evaporated water vapor back into a liquid).


How do you separate sand from the salt?

Put the sand and salt mixture into a beaker of water. Put more water or raise the temperature of the water until the salt completely disappears. Pour everything in the beaker onto a piece of filter paper. The sand will stay on the filter paper while the water and salt solution will pass through the filter paper. To obtain the sale, simply boil the water and the remaining solid after all the water boiled is salt.


Can you separate salt and water with paper?

You cannot do it with paper.


How would you separate a mixture of sand and salt?

Evaporation is recommended. Firstly, put salt and sand into water and stir well to dissolve the salt. Secondly, filter out the sand from the salt solution using a filter funnel and filter paper. Thirdly, place the beaker of salt solution on a Bunsen burner until it evaporates fully and only salt crystals are left. Lastly, heat the salt crystals and sand until it is dry.
