A:
Q Can sugar be separated from water by freezing in the same manner as salt?
A Yes, I don’t see why not.
Q Could Maple sap be condensed in this way?
A Yes, I don’t see why not.
Q Could ice be used as a semipermeable membrane?
A. That sounds pretty impractical since ice is fragile, but there must be some instance where it would work. I believe protons travel much more easily through ice than do other ions.
