How will you separate a mixture containing sand and sugar?



The filtration method can be used to separate a mixture of sand and sugar. Sugar dissolves in water but sand does not. These properties of sugar and sand allow them to get separated by filtration.


(Extra information: In the filtration method, suspension can be filtered using a filter paper leaving sand as residue on the filter paper. The filtrates contain sugar only, so it can be recovered from there.)
