If you are filtering something you are determining what parts liquid or solid can stay and what can go. If you are reabsorbing something that means the product has been produced and will then be brought back into the producer naturally. The difference between the two is the stuff that is filtered is not necessarily always reabsorbed.

∙ 11y agofiltration- The act or process of filtering; the mechanical separation of a liquid from the undissolved particles floating in it.
diffusion- Movement of a fluid from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration. Diffusion is a result of the kinetic properties of particles of matter. The particles will mix until they are evenly distributed.

How do you purify solid organic compound?
Many methods exist: precipitation and filtration, distillation, dissolution and recrystallization, sublimation, sedimentation etc.
What can you use to separate mixtures of identify compounds?
Some methods are: distillation, ion exchange, filtration, sedimentation, solvent extraction, precipitation, chromatographic procedures and many others.
What is meant by the terms decantation and filtration?
The larger and heavier solid particles settle down leaving the clear liquid above it. ... At the same time, during decantation, there is a chance of the particles mixing back in the liquid. The filtration technique can be used to overcome this as well. Thus, filtration is better than sedimentation and decantation.
Which method would be most suitable for the separation of a mixture of salt solution and sand to obtain the salt solution?
Filtration, sedimentation (settlement), centrifuge, decanting
What is difference between GFR and filtration fraction?
the main difference between the gfr and the filtration fraction is that the filteration fraction is mainly use to determine the functional ability of kidnet the filtration fraction is inversly propotion to the plasma flow and diractly propotion to the gfr while the and it is the fraction of the reanal plasmaflow while the gfr is the total amount of the plasma filtered by the nefron of both kidneys gfr valuu is 125 ml per minute and 180 liter per day
What are the methods to separate insoluble solids from liquids?
sedimentation ,decantation,filtration
What is the method of separating a soild from a liquid soultion?
Sedimentation. Filtration. Coagulation. Flocculation
Why do you use sedimentation followed by filtration to convert river water to drinking water?
Filtration helps in removing the suspended particles while sedimentation helps in removing those particles ,settles down under gravitational pull..
What is the term for removing solids from a liquid?
There are several terms for removing solids from a liquid: filtration, settling, decantation or sedimentation.
What are 3 ways to separate solid solutes from liquid solvents?
you do something
What is the difference between sedimentation and centrifugation?
sedimentation is the tendency for particles in suspension to settle down when there is a stirring in it.this is due to there motion through the fluid in response to the force acting on them centrifugation is the process of increasing the level of sedimentation by using a centrifuge.
What are the physical method of separation?
Separation methods: filtration, centrifugation, sedimentation, freeze-drying, evaporation, decanting,
What is a separation technique for sand and water?
sedimentation is the technique (method) of separating sand and water. From H.P
What is the best method for separating?
Examples: filtration, centrifugation, crystallization and recrystallization, distillation, sedimentation, freze drying, ion exchange, etc. Filtration and distillation are most common.
What is the difference between filtration and reabsorbtion?
Filtration Filtration is accomplished by the movement of fluids from the blood into the bowmans capsule. = Reabsorption = = Reabsorption involves the selective transfer of essential solutes and = water back into the blood.
What is filtration and why better than sedimention?
Filtration is an effective method because it removes most of the dirt from a liquid whereas in sedimentation some semi soluble dirt is still left in the liquid and is not removed.
Why Filtration is a better method than simple sedimentation and decantation?
Filtration can remove solid particles as small as 1 micron. Simply decanting, or allowing solids to settle - will not remove the smallest particles.
