How will you separate a mixture containing sand, common salt and sulphur?
Separation of a mixture of sand, common salt i.e.; Sodium chloride and Sulphur :
Step-1: Addition of Carbon disulphide in the mixture
Step-2: Addition of water to the residue obtained in Step-1
Step-3: Evaporation of filtrate obtained in Step-2
Thus, the three components get separated based on their solubilities in the solvent of choice.
