Boiling a salt solution will have the same effect as natural evaporation, but will be much faster. The water will boil off and leave the salt behind.

Boiling is a faster process compared to evaporation for separating a salt solution because it increases the rate of evaporation. It also allows for the collection of the vapor and condensation back to recover the dissolved salt. Additionally, boiling can help to remove volatile impurities that may be present in the solution.
Both evaporation and boiling involve the transformation of a liquid into a gas. However, evaporation occurs at the surface of a liquid at any temperature, while boiling specifically happens when the liquid reaches its boiling point and bubbles form throughout the entire volume of the liquid.
No, kerosene in water is not a true solution. Kerosene is immiscible in water, which means that they do not mix together to form a homogeneous solution. Instead, kerosene forms separate droplets in water due to differences in their polarities.
When CaCl2 and MgSO4 are mixed, they will not form a new compound. Instead, they will remain as two separate compounds in the solution.
No, oil and water in a beaker would not be classified as a solution. Oil and water are immiscible, meaning they do not mix together to form a homogeneous solution. Instead, they separate into distinct layers due to differences in polarity.
No, distillation is not suitable for separating sand from sugar since both substances do not have different boiling points. Distillation relies on differences in boiling points to separate substances, so sand and sugar cannot be separated using this method. Instead, methods such as filtration or dissolution followed by filtration would be more appropriate for separating sand from sugar.
