Place the rest of the material in a shallow strainer that does not allow anything but water to pass through. pour water over the strainer, and then allow it to fill up to the brim, clearly catching all 128 ounces in a container. The salt will have dissolved in the water, where you can use heat, or natural dehydration to get rid of the water and retain the salt.  *Viloa* three grains separated.

3. Use a magnet to get all the iron fillings out.
4.Evaporate the water from the salt by boiling.

2) Pour the mixture in a beaker and cover with water. Stir well.
3) Pour the contents of the beaker through a filter to collect the sand while catching the water in another beaker.
4) Transfer the water to a shallow pan and allow to evaporate to collect the salt.]]> 2021-02-10 23:21:43 UTC https://padlet.com/melissabrichacek/83znluymp8e14gun/wish/1190110348 1. Drag a magnet back and forth in the mixture to attract the iron filings. Place the iron filings in a beaker. https://padlet.com/melissabrichacek/83znluymp8e14gun/wish/1190110551 2. In beaker two, add 100 mL of water with a graduated cylinder. Pour the remaining mixture into the beaker and stir for 1 minute.
3.  In a third beaker, place a funnel lined with filter paper. Pour the contents of beaker 2 through the filter.
4. Remove the filter paper be careful to not spill any of the solid that it contains.
5. Now place the third beaker on a hot plate and bring to a gentle boil. Allow all of the water to evaporate. Leave the remaining solid in the beaker.]]> 2021-02-10 23:21:50 UTC https://padlet.com/melissabrichacek/83znluymp8e14gun/wish/1190110551 Get a magnetic wand and sift it through the mixture, gathering the iron. rblake4 https://padlet.com/melissabrichacek/83znluymp8e14gun/wish/1190110634 Pour the remaining mixture into a beaker, add water, stir, until the salt is dissolved.

Get a coffee filter or cheese cloth and pour the mixture through the filter, into a larger beaker.  
Collect the coffee filter or cheese cloth, and spread that out to dry. This is your sand.

The liquid that has come through the filter can be left to evaporate or can be put on a medium burner to boil away the water.  You should have a solid mixture remaining, which is your salt, ]]> 2021-02-10 23:21:52 UTC https://padlet.com/melissabrichacek/83znluymp8e14gun/wish/1190110634 Work on the iron filings first. Use magnets to separate the iron from the sand and salt. chickman12 https://padlet.com/melissabrichacek/83znluymp8e14gun/wish/1190110830 2021-02-10 23:21:59 UTC https://padlet.com/melissabrichacek/83znluymp8e14gun/wish/1190110830 Use a magnet to remove all the iron filings. https://padlet.com/melissabrichacek/83znluymp8e14gun/wish/1190111782 Mix the salt and sand mixture with water to dissolve the salt.
Use a filter/strainer to remove the sand.
Evaporate/boil the water away from the salt.

Wave magnet above the mixture. use a filter to separate the smaller particles. https://padlet.com/melissabrichacek/83znluymp8e14gun/wish/1190112297 2021-02-10 23:22:50 UTC https://padlet.com/melissabrichacek/83znluymp8e14gun/wish/1190112297 Sand and Salt chickman12 https://padlet.com/melissabrichacek/83znluymp8e14gun/wish/1190112732 You could start by trying different sizes of strainers to see if the salt and sand are different sized granules.

boil water to separate water and salt

I would follow the same separation as everyone else. Would probably mass the mixture prior to separation so I could verify the quantities at the end... https://padlet.com/melissabrichacek/83znluymp8e14gun/wish/1190122321 2021-02-10 23:28:31 UTC https://padlet.com/melissabrichacek/83znluymp8e14gun/wish/1190122321 I would use a magnet and an index card to remove the iron. Then I would dissolve the salt in water. Then strain out the sand. Then boil the water to retrieve the salt. teresajackson1 https://padlet.com/melissabrichacek/83znluymp8e14gun/wish/1190124258 2021-02-10 23:29:37 UTC https://padlet.com/melissabrichacek/83znluymp8e14gun/wish/1190124258
