Question

Filtration as a method of separation can be used for mixtures that are:

• A. Homogeneous and liquid-in-gas mixtures.
• B. Heterogeneous and liquid-in-gas mixtures.
• C. Homogeneous and solid-in-liquid mixtures.
• D. Heterogeneous and solid-in-liquid mixtures.

Answer 1

The correct option is D Heterogeneous and solid-in-liquid mixtures.

Filtration is a separation method. This is a more common method of separating an insoluble solid from a liquid. An example of such a mixture is sand and water.
Hence, option (D) is the correct answer.
