Could someone tell me what would be the best way to separate these 3 solids. Potassium Nitrate, Sodium Chloride (Salt), and sand, all of which are in water. :confused: Any insight would be helpful thanks.

Well filter the sand, lol

I think about the others

 

Id wait a day b4 getting a ful answer as it isnt that busy around here, :)

Well, I have to get each of these by themselves, Pottasium Nitrate is 100% soluble in water at 60 degrees celcius, so if the sand was alone in that it would work, but salt is only 38% soluble in water so filtering wouldnt work...

how exactly would that work
