What substance cant be separated by filtration?

A solution, such as saltwater, cannot be separated by filtration because the solute (salt) is dissolved at the molecular level in the solvent (water). Filtration works by trapping larger particles while allowing smaller particles or dissolved substances to pass through, so dissolved substances remain in the solution. In contrast, substances like sand or gravel can be separated by filtration because they are solid particles that do not dissolve in the liquid.


When salt is dissolved in water what would water be?

When salt is dissolved in water, the water becomes a solution. The salt particles disperse throughout the water, forming a homogeneous mixture. The properties of the water, such as boiling point and freezing point, may change due to the presence of the dissolved salt.


Why cant you just evaporate a liquid to find out which substances were dissolved in it?

Evaporating a liquid to identify dissolved substances can be problematic because the process may alter or destroy some of the compounds, making identification difficult. Additionally, if the dissolved substances have similar boiling points or form azeotropes, they may not separate cleanly during evaporation. Furthermore, some compounds may decompose upon heating, leading to misleading results. For accurate identification, techniques like chromatography or mass spectrometry are often preferred.

What 3 ways can substances enter and leave a cell?

Substances can move in and out of a cell in several ways. Diffusion is when a substance will distribute itself in or out of a cell until the distribution on both sides of the cell is balanced. Active transport is when a cell transports a substance across the cell membrane that would not normally be able to pass through. Osmosis is the movement of water from areas with few dissolved dissolved substances to areas with high dissolved substances.

Why cant salt and baking soda dissolve in room tempurture water?

Assuming you are talking about 'normal' tap water, they can, just not in as high a concentrations as with warmer water As a test: Mix some salt in water, let it settle, have a taste... does it taste saltier? If so, salt has dissolved into it
