Question

Which of these statements is/are true?

• A. The components of a suspension can be separated by filtration.
• B. The particles of a colloid can pass through a filter paper.
• C. The constituents of a compound can be separated by physical methods.
• D. Both (A) and (B).

Answer 1

The correct option is D Both (A) and (B).

Components of suspension are large enough to be filtered by filter paper.

Colloidal particles are small enough and cannot be seen through the naked eye. They easily pass through filter paper.

Constituents of compounds can only be separated by chemical methods.

Hence, option D is correct.
