how will u separate common salt ,sulphur powder n sand from their mixture
Hi Jigisha,
The mixture contains sulphur, common salt(sodium chloride) and sand. They can be separated as follows:
- Add water to the mixture. Salt will dissolve in water. Filter the solution.
- Filterate is solution of Salt and residue contains sulphur and sand.
- Evaporate the filterate, water will vapourize leaving behind salt.
- To the residue containing sulphur and sand add carbon disulphide, this will dissolve sulphur.
- Filter this solution.
- The filterate will contain sulphur dissolved in carbon disulphide and residue will be sand.
- Evaporate the filterate, to obtain crystals of Sulphur.
If this helps thumbs up please :p
