Answer:

There are some physical separation methods that can help

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, given that the silver chloride is unsoluble in water it can be separated by physical means. Such as:

1) Filtration: this is the best option if you want to keep the water and not he salt.

Note: you can separate the salt from the filter by calcination

2) Centrifugal force: by applying centrifugal force to a test tube with the mixture, the unsoluble salt will precipitate.

3) Evaporation: if your product of interest is the salt, you can always apply heat to evaporate all the water. The salt will remain in the test tube.

Answer:

As the silver chloride is an insoluble compound in water, I can apply heat to water to make it evaporate and recover the chloride. You can also apply a filtration process to remove the liquid or centrifuge so the chloride can precipitate and remains at the bottom of the tube
