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.

Separation of sugar and water?

Salt does not desolve in pure grain alcohol. Put the mixture in the solution, then filter through filter paper or a coffee filter. then evaporate the alcohol and your left with salt in the filter and sugar in the other end.


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.

How can separate water and salt without lossing of water?

You can separate water and salt using a process called evaporation. Simply heat the mixture of water and salt until all the water evaporates, leaving behind the salt. This way, you can separate the two substances without losing any water.


How do you separate pure salt from salt?

Dissolve the whole salt in a warm water, then filter it out. By evaporating the filtrate, we shall get pure salt. The impurities will left on the filter paper(as these are insoluble in water).


How do you separate salt water from the mixture of chalk powder mixed in water?

Pass the mixture through filter paper. The salt water will pass through leaving the chalk behind in the filter paper.


Why do you use filter paper to separate sand from water and not salt from 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.


Why can a filter paper separate sand from salt water but not the salt?

Sugar/salt molecules bond with water. songjongsuk: what he means is that the sugar/salt molecules are PART of the water, which means they are technically liquid. So they can pass through the filter paper just like any other liquid.


How would you separate gold dust from a mixture of iron filings and salt?

Mix with water, the pass through a filter paper. The salt will be dissolved in the water so it will be removed with the water, leaving the iron filings and gold dust on the filter paper. Leave this to dry then separate off the iron filings using a magnet, leaving behind the gold.


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.


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.


Why does filter paper not remove salt or sugar from water?

Filter paper is designed to physically separate solid particles from a liquid, based on size. Salt and sugar dissolved in water exist as individual molecules or ions that are too small to be captured by the pores of filter paper. To remove salt or sugar from water, processes like distillation or using a reverse osmosis filter are more effective as they can separate dissolved substances from water at a molecular level.
