How much and how fast? A cup of sand in a quart of water? Grab a sieve, put a paper towel in it and pour the mix slowly into the sieve and allow the water to drain away. After ten minutes or so, recover the damp sand, spread it on a baking sheet and let it air dry. In a hurry? Pop it in the oven for a few minutes at a couple or three hundred degrees.
Some methods are possible:
- filtration
- sedimentation
- centrifugation
- evaporation
A fine sieve.
On its own, no. Water is not a component of sand. If the sand is wet, then the water there can become water vapor, but that's true of water anywhere.
You can separate sand from water by evaporation or by filtration.
A cup of sand, sand sinks in water, thus its heavier.
Soluble means something will dissolve. Sand does not dissolve in water, salt does.
because wet sand is cold from the cold water that makes it wet, and dry sand is in the sun and the water cant reach all the sand.
evaporation of the water. Water boils at a relatively low temp. sand does not, so sand would be left behind.
The mixture of and and water is a heterogeneous mixture. There is two steps to separate: Sedimentation: The sand will settle at the bottom of the beaker Decantation: Pour the water slowly out of the container leaving the sand behind. This water is called "supernatant" liquid.
sedimentation is the technique (method) of separating sand and water. From H.P
Simply filtration. In these types of separation questions, please think of the different properties of the substances you want to separate. In this case, Sand doesn't dissolve in water, so if you filter the mixture, you will get sand as the residue and water as the filtrate.
- Sand is separated by filtration- Kerosene is separated by decantation (or with a special separation funnel) from water
No, separating sand from water is a physical process as the chemical identities of the sand and water remain the same.
mix the salt and sand into a glass of water. The sand would settle at the bottom of the glass, and the salt would dissolve into the water. pour off the salt water, wait for the water to evaporate, and you will be left with salt, and sand.
copper from sand, magnet sand from water, filter paper water from salt. evaporation

Sand and water do not react, they simply mix. This is a physical process.
Sand is a lot denser than water and sinks to the bottom, so it is relatively easy to pour off the water which is on top. You won't get every drop, that way, but you can easily get most of it.
No. Condensation is the process in which a gas turns into a liquid. You can filter the sand from the water using a funnel and filter paper, and then let the water evaporate from the wet sand you get from the filtration.
