Paper is cellulosic and thus polymeric. Being a polymer, the molecular weight is too high for it to be anything other than a solid.

When do we use filtration?

We use filtration when we want to separate a solid and a liquid. e.g. chalk and water The residue left behind at the filter paper will be chalk in this case, for it is a solid:)


What is filter in science?

Filtration is a process of separating a mixture of solid suspended in liquid. A filter paper is used in the process , then the mixture is poured over the filter paper , the liquid passes , but the solid particles suspended in the liquid , are stopped by the filter paper as residue. Thus , They get separated.


What is fillteration?

*Filtration - Darling, learn how to spell before you put a basic question up. Filtration is used to separate solids (Such as sand or small rocks) from liquids. It is set up using a funnel, filter paper, a stand and a beaker to hold the filtrate. The liquid is poured into the funnel, the solid is trapped in the filter paper and the liquid passes through into the beaker - the liquid is then called 'filtrate'.


Can a magnet still work through solid objects?

Depends on the solid object. Generally, yes. A magnetic material (steel, iron etc.) offers some shielding while a superconducting magnet offers I believe perfect shielding. Fridge magnets work just fine through paint, paper etc. It's the thickness of paper pushing the magnet away from the door that stop you holding up a book, not that the magnetic force is stopped by the paper.


How do you find the pH of a solid?

You can make a PH indicator solution out of blueberry juice, or you can buy litmus paper or use an indicator solution that you can buy at the store.
