1. Dissolving: Salt dissolves in water, but sand does not.
2. Evaporation: Add water to the mixture and stir until the salt dissolves. Then, gently heat the mixture. The water will evaporate, leaving the sand behind.
3. Crystallization: The evaporated water can be collected and allowed to cool. As the water cools, the salt will crystallize out of the solution, leaving you with clean salt.
