Clay soil can hold water and nutrients well, but it can also have poor drainage which can lead to waterlogged conditions that suffocate roots. This can result in stunted plant growth as roots struggle to access oxygen and nutrients. Additionally, clay soil can become hard and compacted, making it difficult for roots to penetrate and grow. Amendments such as organic matter can help improve clay soil structure for better plant growth.
Sandy soil typically drains water quickly and may not retain enough nutrients for plant growth. As a result, plants planted in sandy soil may struggle to access sufficient water and nutrients, leading to stunted growth and potential wilting. Amending sandy soil with organic matter can improve its water retention and nutrient content, supporting healthier plant growth.
Mixing clay and sand in a test tube will result in a heterogeneous mixture, as the clay particles will not dissolve in the sand. The two components can be physically separated by techniques such as filtration or sedimentation.
That mixture is called adobe. Adobe is a traditional building material made from a combination of clay, sand, and straw or plant fibers. It is shaped into bricks or blocks, which are then dried in the sun until they harden.
Some plants don't mind clay soil. But many plants do not. They get too much water around the roots and rot.
It would probably die as it is an alien environment.
No.
Because soil has nutrients that clay and sand don't have

Clay soils don't furnish enough aeration for plant roots, they basically sufficate.

Depends entirely what sort of lily and the requirement for that particular plant. Roses normally prefer slightly heavy, clay-type soils in a full sun position. If you can find a lily that requires the same soil, location and water requirements then there is no reason why they cannot be planted together.
When planting a daffodil bulb, you have to find a site with full sun or part shade with somewhat fertile and well-drained soil. Plant the bulbs in the fall about 3-6 inches apart. Bear in mind that they will soon be crowding each other. Generally planting is done in the fall, but late winter is OK, too, as long as the ground is not frozen. The bulbs need to be 2 times as deep as the bulb is high. A 2-inch long bulb should be planted 4-inches deep. If the winters are severe, 3-inches of soil above the bulb tip is recommended. In clay soils, don't plant as deeply as in sandy soil. If planted too deeply, the bulb will produce long stems and few flowers.
clay acts as an insulator because its an non-metal and there are no free electrons in it whereas cooking untensils are made of metals with free electrons therefore they can conduct the heat unlike clay :) + the clay will melt if it was over heated
There are many varieties of pine trees. I'll assume we are talking about the White Pine; most popular in the temperate zone. They like well drained, slightly acidic, moderately fertile soils, planted in full sun. Stay away from heavy clay soils. Or if planted in heavy clay soils plant the tree in a mound above the adjacent finished grades to provide better drainage away from the root system. Most pines will do best with these conditions.
