It turns into a rock called fulgurite (fused quartz).
When sand is struck by lightning, the silica in the sand melts and fuses, forming a glass tube called fulgurite. Fulgurite is generally rare, but can be found all over the world. The fulgurite can be a variety of different colors depending on the mineral content of the sand.

How can you remove lead from sand?
Put the sand in a dish and heat it above the melting point of lead. The lead will flow to the bottom and separate from the sand. Due to the high density of the lead, the sand will float on the molten lead. When the lead and sand cool, you can separate the two.
What Made liquid by heat?
When a substance is heated, it absorbs energy in the form of heat, causing its molecules to gain kinetic energy and vibrate more rapidly. Eventually, the substance's molecular bonds weaken, allowing the particles to move more freely and rearrange into a liquid state. This process is called melting.
