In order to separate the mixture of salt and water you have to put them both into a shallow container (lots of surface area) and let the water evaporate. If you're interested in savaging the fresh water, then you must use a still (distilling device) that first evaporates the water and then condenses it. Or you could set up a homemade apparatus to collect the water. Put the saltwater at the bottom of a pot, then put a cup in the center making sure no saltwater gets in the cup. Put the lid on the pot upside down so the handle points at the cup. The water will evaporate leaving the salt and then in will hit the top, condense, and roll down to the handle where it will drop into the cup.
salt and water are basic mixtures

they can be easily separated by the method of evapration

put the salt water in the hot sun

the water will be evaprated and you will be left with salt!

Yes, a mixture of salt and water can form a solution. When salt is dissolved in water, the salt particles separate and disperse evenly throughout the water, creating a homogenous mixture. This mixture is called a saltwater solution.


What is a good hypothesis for can you separate salt from water by freezing?

A possible hypothesis could be: "If salt is mixed with water and the solution is frozen, then the salt will not separate from the water, as both salt and water will freeze together into a solid."
