Answer 1

The most effective way to separate a solid substance that has dissolved in water is to boil the water away, leaving the substance behind in the beaker. This method works because the dissolved substance (if it remains solid upon heating) will be left behind after the water evaporates.

So, the correct answer is: Boil the water away, leaving the substance behind in the beaker.
