can someone answer this sorta science question?

Question

how do you separate:
vinegar & oil, sugar dissolved in water, charcoal & sugar, baking soda in water, and salt & water... if not where is a good site to visit?

Answer 1

Vinegar and oil normally don't mix so you can wait for them to separate and skim off the two solutions. Then boil each solution and you will have the sugar left.

Salt and water is easy to separate because you can just boil off the water and you will only have salt left.

Charcoal, sugar and baking soda in water is more difficult, first I would boil the water and dry it out, which leaves only the charcoal, sugar and baking soda. I forget which chemicals are exact but doesn't baking soda and vinegar equal a foaming volcano; which could remove the baking soda, if not then a visual sort since charcoal is black. I also don't think charcoal dissolves in water so you can take the solution of sugar, water and baking soda and then strain it to get rid of the charcoal. Then you might be able to use the vinegar to get rid of the baking soda leaving the sugar.

You can't burn the charcoal and sugar because sugar might burn as well.

Answer 2

Vinegar and oil: Decant the oil from the vinegar.

Charcoal and sugar: Add water. Filter charcoal from sugar solution. Evapoirate sugar solution.

The same for baking soda or salt in water. Evaporate the water.
