Answer: When sand is added to water it either hangs in the water or forms a layer at the bottom of the container. Sand therefore does not dissolve in water and is insoluble. It is easy to separate sand and water by filtering the mixture. Salt can be separated from a solution through evaporation.

Answer:
The empirical formula for the compound is Na2O
Explanation:
Data obtained from the question include:
Sodium (Na) = 74.2g
Oxygen (O) = 25.8g
We can obtain the empirical formula for the compound as follow:
First, divide the above by their individual molar mass as shown below:
Na = 74.2/23 = 3.226
O = 25.8/16 = 1.613
Next, divide the above by the smallest number
Na = 3.226/1.613 = 2
O = 1.613/1.613 = 1
Therefore, the empirical formula is:
Na2O
We have that every gas satisfies the fundamental gas equation, PV=nRT where P is the Pressure, V is the volume of the gas, n are the moles of the gas, R is a universal constant and T is the Temperature in Kelvin. We have that PV/T=nR and during our process, the moles of the gas do not change (no argon enters or escapes our sample). See attached.
