Hello. Since your question has multiple sub-parts, we will solve the first three sub-parts for you. If you want the remaining sub-parts to be solved, then please resubmit the whole question and specify those sub-parts you want us to solve.
(a) crushed ice and crushed glass
The mixture of crushed ice and crushed glass can be separated by heating the mixture at a temperature around 100°C, which is the boiling point of water. At this temperature, crushed ice will start melting and then vaporizes. But, the boiling point of the glass is about 1400°C, so it will not vaporize. Thus, crushed ice can be separated from the crushed glass by the heating process.
