Question

A mixture of milk and water can be separated by filtration. (True or False)

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is B False

• Filtration is the method that is used to separate suspended solid matter from a liquid mixture.
• A mixture in which the composition is uniform throughout the mixture is called a homogenous mixture.
• The mixture of milk and water is a homogeneous mixture as the milk gets equally dispersed all over the mixture.
• The homogenous mixture can not be separated by physical methods.

Thus, this statement is false. A mixture of milk and water cannot be separated by filtration.
