How can we separate a mixture containing salt, water
and sand?

Open in App

Solution

Salt is soluble in water and sand is insoluble in water.

After mixing, sand will settle down at the bottom and salt will dissolve in water.

Using a sieve or a filter, we can separate saltwater from sand.

Then, with the help of evaporation, water and salt can be separated.
