Question
Chapter 4, Problem 7Q
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The reason for the use of fluted filter paper in gravity filtration should be explained.
Concept introduction:
Gravity filtration is the process that is used to separate the solids from liquids based on the particle size with the help of gravity. This method is used when the filtrate is to be retained and the residue on the filter paper is discarded. It includes the use of conical flasks, fluted filter paper, stemless funnel, and boiling chips. It is a slow process and removes only large particles from the air.

10. Explain the step in filtration technique.
vacuum filtration uses suction to speed up the filtration process?
Choose the one correct or one incorrect statement regarding filtration:
gravity filtration uses a Buchner funnel, filtering flask and negative pressure
filter paper should be wet with solvent to seal it to the funnel before filtering
the solution collected in the filtering flask is called the residue
vacuum filtration is most often used to remove impurities from a solution
the solution to be filtered should completely fill the top of a Buchner funnel
