Answer» The correct option is (b) Solid and Liquid The explanation is: Filtration is the separation of solids from liquids by forcing the liquid to flow through a porous medium and depositing the solids on the medium. A filter aid (finely divided material added to the liquid to be filtered) helps control flow and solids removal. Precoat filtration is a type of mechanical filtration that can be used to clarify liquids. Filter aids such as diatomaceous earth, perlite and cellulose enables a liquid to pass through while retaining the haze-causing particles. |
