Explanation:

The filter paper is moistened with the solvent that makes up the solution. This prevents the formation of multi-layer systems in the filter flask. It should adhere well to the bottom before the vacuum is applied.

The filter paper is moistened so that is stick to the funnel which doesn't let the air pass through the passage, which increases the speed of filtration.
