How would a combination of pebbles and water be similar to a combination of sand and water?
A mixture of pebbles and water would be heterogeneous.
Why would you want separate a mechanical mixture?
I do not know tell me
Carlos' teacher has asked him to separate a mixture of sand and iron filings. Which of these methods would correctly separate the mixture?
the correct answer would be -( magnetic attraction of one part )
How many phases are present in a mixture of water sand and oil. How could you separate this mixture into individual substances.?
Sand would lay on the bottom, water would occupy the middle, and oil would float on the top. So, in a tall tube of all three substances, careful extraction from three heights of the tube would separate as required.
How can you separate sand and pebbles?
As long as the particles of sand and pebbles are of different size, you can separate them using a sieve (sifter). The smaller sand particles will pass through the sieve whereas the pebble molecules will not. This is the process that occurs in sifters sold as children's toys.
Is gravel and H20 a mixture or solution?
Gravel and H2O (water) would be considered a mixture. Gravel does not dissolve in water, so the two substances would remain physically separate in the container.
Is gravel a solution why or why not?
Nope... it's a mixture.
Would a screen be useful for separating a mixture of gravel and diatomaceous-earth?
yes it would. you could also separate it with a magnet then the gravel would stick to the magnet. +++ Magnetic gravel? You can separate diatomaceous earth from gravel simply by sieving. Gravel is not magnetic (unless it happens to be a magnetic ore of iron!).
How would you separate a mixture of salt gravel and power?
Salt is soluble in water; gravel is separated by filtering the solution or by decantation.Power is not a material.
Would a screen be useful for separating a mixture of gravel and diatomaceous - earth powder?
yes it would. you could also separate it with a magnet then the gravel would stick to the magnet. +++ Magnetic gravel? You can separate diatomaceous earth from gravel simply by sieving. Gravel is not magnetic (unless it happens to be a magnetic ore of iron!).
How could you seperate a mixture of sand and small pebbles?
In geology and civil engineering sand and gravel have specific meanings! Sand is material that varies in diameter from 1⁄16 mm upto 2 mm. Any material larger than this is either gravel (>2 to 4 mm), a pebble (>4 to 64 mm), a cobble (>64 to 256), or a boulder (>256 mm). As the difference between gravel and sand is the size of the grains then a sieve with a mesh equal to the maximum diameter of sand could be used to sieve the material. All the material passing through the sieve would be sand (or smaller material) and anything trapped on the sieve would be gravel or larger material.
If you have a mixture of gravel and sand and salt and iron fillings what properties of these substances could you use to separate the mixture and how would you use those properties?
You could use a magnet to separate the iron fillings from the mixture, as iron is magnetic while the other substances are not. Next, you could use water to dissolve the salt, allowing you to separate it from the sand and gravel mixture. Finally, you could use a sieve to separate the remaining sand and gravel mixture based on particle size.
How do you separate sand gravel and water?
To separate sand, gravel, and water, you can use a filtration method. Pour the mixture through a filter such as a sieve or cloth to separate the sand and gravel from the water. The water will pass through while the sand and gravel remain on the filter.
How would you separate ground pepper and pebbles?
First put the mixture in a colander and separate the salt and pepper from the pebbles. Then put the salt and pepper in water and stir it to dissolve the salt. The pepper will not dissolve, and you can remove the pepper. Then allow the water to dissolve and you will be left with the salt.
Is sand or pebbles a mixture or solution?
it's a mixture !
How do you separate pebbles from rocks?
You would screen out the larger rocks. Build a wooden frame, and use some screen that would exclude the rocks, but which would allow the pebbles to flow through. What he said works, but I consider pebbles to be small, kind of round, smooth stones. You could do what he said, or you could rake them, or depending on your situation, using your hands might be better, if you only need a few of them.
How would you separate sand from gravel into their components?
One way to separate sand from gravel is by using a sieve or screen with appropriately sized mesh openings. Pour the mixture onto the sieve and shake gently to allow the smaller sand particles to fall through while retaining the larger gravel particles. Alternatively, you could use a method called sedimentation - by pouring the mixture into water, the gravel will sink while the sand floats, making it easier to separate them.
