The video tutorial demonstrates how to separate a mixture of salt and sand using filtration and evaporation. It explains the process of dissolving salt in water, filtering out sand, and then evaporating the water to retrieve the salt. The tutorial highlights the scientific principles of solubility and filtration, and provides real-world examples of salt extraction through evaporation in salt flats.

What are the two main methods used to separate salt from sand in the experiment?

• Filtration and evaporation

• Filtration and distillation

• Distillation and crystallization

• Evaporation and condensation

What is the first step in the separation process of salt and sand?

• Filtering the mixture immediately

• Heating the mixture directly

• Mixing salt and sand in a beaker

• Adding cold water to the mixture

What is the residue left on the filter paper after filtration?

• Salt

• Water

• Salt solution

• Sand

Why does salt dissolve in water while sand does not?

• Salt is soluble in water, sand is not

• Salt is less dense than sand

• Sand is more reactive than salt

• Sand is soluble in water, salt is not

What happens to the salt solution when it is heated?

• The salt dissolves further

• The solution becomes more concentrated

• The water evaporates, leaving salt behind

• The salt evaporates with the water

How is salt traditionally obtained in the salt flats of Peru?

• Through solar evaporation

• By using chemical reactions

• By boiling seawater

• By mining underground

What natural resource is used to evaporate water in salt ponds globally?

• Geothermal heat

• Solar heat

• Tidal energy

• Wind energy
