Answer 2

Filtration is a method to separate the components of a mixture of a liquid and an insoluble substance. (Option b)

• When using this method, a mixture is poured through a filter to segregate the elements mixed.
• This is useful when one of the elements is not soluble in the other and is big enough to not go through the filter.
• Such filters can be a sieve, fine cloth, filter papers, etc.
• This is an important method when it comes to separating a mixture's elements.
