Solution

The correct option is C Sand
If you have a mixture of salt and sand, then by placing the mixture in water, salt dissolves but the sand remains. When this new mixture is then filtered, the salt in the salty water solution passes through the filter paper to form the filtrate and the sand remains as the residue.
