How can i seperate sugar and salt from water without using any lab apparatus?
chemistry seperation techniques
Answer:
you need to do a selective precipitation. evaporate the solution until you are left with the mixture of salt and sugar. then dissolve the crystals a volitile organic solvent such as acetone (nail polish remover), ethyl alcohol or isoporpanol (commonly sold as Isopropyl rubbing alcohol). as the salt is much less soluble in the solvent, only the sugar will dissolve. then, you should just be able to evaporate the remaining sugar out of the solution (be careful of the fumes, both inhalation and flamability issues!)
if you want the sugar an salt to keep together, jsut boil the water till its all gone- it will leave crystals in the bottom, if you want hte water, i have no clue watsoever, sorry, but it is near impossible.
