Can the components of a solution be separated by filtration? Why / Why not ? Army please answer
Answers
Answer:
it can or can't because if dissolved then it can't be an if not dissolved then it can be Seperated with filtration
brainliest me I'm needy
There are two types of solution:-
Homogeneous
Heterogeneous
It is impossible to filter the components that mix and form homogeneous solution because the size of solute mixed in the solvent almost reduces to nanometer and at present time there are no such filters which can separate nanometer components.
Examples are Sugar mixed in water, Lemon juice, etc.
Whereas in heterogenous solution(solution where solvent and solute do not mix completely and which can be seen with a naked eye) it is possible and not possible also. The reason for this 50-50 is because in heterogeneous solution only the components can be filtered out only when there states are different means solute and solvent are in different state.
Example Sand in water, wax in kerosene, etc.
But if the solute and solvent are in same state then it is not possible to filter the components out using filtration method.
Example Oil in water, and many more.
