What is sintered glass and its porosity?
Sintered glass is a glass mesh used for filtration. It can be used instead of filter paper, and in fact is preferable to filter paper. Its other advantage is that it is permanent so you can get various different pieces of glassware with sintered glass in it e.g. an enclosed filter suitable for filtration under nitrogen. As for the porosity.... Porosity of sintered glass is labelled by integers from 0-5 (viz. 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5) where 0 has a pore size of 160-250 micrometres and is considered course filtration, that is fluid will pass through it quickly and some finer solids will pass through. Whereas, porosity 5 has a pore size of 4-10 micrometers so even ultrafine solids will not pass through and liquids will drop through. I hope this is clear, makes sense and is helpful.
What is the effect of increasing particle size of percent of pore?
When the pore size is increased it allows more fluids and solutes to pass through which is why the filtration rate increases. This means that the pore size and the filtration rate are directly proportional.
How many electrons does glass have?
Glass, just like any other physical material, has both of them, nortmally in equal numbers. When a sample of glass picks up extra electrons, it appears to be negatively charged, whereas when some of its electrons are stipped away, it appears positively charged.
How much does a glass cup hold?
It depends on the size of the cup. What a cup is made of says nothing about its capacity. For instance, a one-cup measuring cup holds one cup, whether it is made of metal, plastic, or glass.
What is the difference between coffee filter and laboratory filter paper?
There is no difference between a regular laboratory filter and a regular coffee filter. It's only different when you use more expensive laboratory filters with a specific small pore size or special coating
What pore size is related with porosity 2 of sintered glass filter?
The pore size is the average 100 micrometers.
What is porosity and pore size in glass?
No, glass is not porous

What generally happens to the porosity of sediments as they are turned into rock?
Due to the processes of compaction and cementation the pore spaces are generally reduced in size or in-filled with other minerals. This acts to reduce the porosity.
What factors affect porosity?
The larger the particle size, the higher the porosity. Also keep in mind that angular particles have a higher porosity than round particles. *Good way to remember porosity is that the spaces between particles are "pore-like."
What factors control the porosity of an aquifer?
size of the particles in the material shapes and uniformity of the material amount of cementing agent in the pore space of the material All of the above are correct.
What is porosity in relation to groundwater?
Porosity is a measurement of the ratio of pore space to solids in a given volume of material. The pore spaces form in soils and rocks due to the gaps between the individual clasts or grains that aggregate to form them. Compaction and consolidation (where the soil or rock is compressed) can force the grains closer together and so reduce the size of the pore spaces and so decrease the porosity. Below the phreatic surface or water table, these pore spaces are normally filled with water (there are exceptions however for simplicities sake it is a reasonable assumption). The larger the porosity of a rock or soil, the more space per unit volume there is to store groundwater. Also the larger the interconnections between the pore spaces and the greater the number of interconnections, the more permeable the material will be to the movement of groundwater. Porosity is a dimensionless quantity which is calculated by dividing the volume of void space by the total volume of the material in question. There are a number of methods of determining the value of the porosity of a material and for more information please see the related link.
What is the measure of the amount of space between rock particles?
A piece of sand on the beach in Miami and onh on a beach in Japan have the whole earth between them.
What is the relationship between porosity bulk density and particle density?
If you were to graph particle size and porosity, it would be a constant slope (horizontal line).Porosity is not affected by particle size.
How sorting affects porosity?
more sphericity,more porosity good sorting ,more uniform size and more will be the porosity porosity doesnot depend on size of grain
Which will hold more sand gravel or dirt?
sand has more porosity because sand has a very smaller particle size than dirt. relatively, the smaller the particle size, the higher the porosity. clay has the highest porosity than other soils. sand has high porosity. dirt has low porosity
What is the effect of increasing particle size of percent of pore?
When the pore size is increased it allows more fluids and solutes to pass through which is why the filtration rate increases. This means that the pore size and the filtration rate are directly proportional.
