They can usually be separated through 2 main methods. Filtration (using filter paper so separate the liquids and solids in a heterogeneous mixture) or through boiling. Boiling is basically heating the solution until it comes to a boil; as the water evaporates your are left with the solid in the solution.
dissolution (:
dissolution
If you mean, "Why does filtering not separate a solute from a solution," then the answer is: Filtering is a mechanical process to remove physical particles of solid matter. If something is dissolved, like salt (the solute) in water (the solution) there are no physical particles of matter to remove - the salt is chemically dissolved and in solution.
The best example is the solution of sugar and water . When sugar is mixed repeatedly in water continuosly then a point comes where further it sugar dont get dissolved. Then the amount of sugar dissolved is the solution and the rest sugar is solvent .
A solution is formed from a solute dissolved in a solvent.
Filtration will remove ALL solid particles regardless of their size. To separate materials based on the size of their particles one would use a process of sieving, using a sieve stack with a smaller and smaller mesh size.
By the process of diffusion.....

A solution. A "solution" is not a process. The process of particles spreading evenly through a mixture is called dispersion or diffusion.
Mix the solution well to ensure that the sugar is dissolved. After doing that, bring the water to boil until you're just left with the sugar. We call this process "evaporation".

Dissolved particles on one side of the membrane results in the diffusion of water across the membrane due to the need to have the same solution concentration on both sides of the membrane. Water will diffuse from a hypotonic solution to a hypertonic solution.
This process is called sedimentation.
It will be transparant if it is an aqueous solution. In other words, if water is the solvent then the solution will be transparant. The process of dissolvation involves the creation of intermolecular bonds between the solute particles and the water molecules. and once dissolved the solute particles remain surrounded by the water molecules. This situation keeps the particles spaced far enough apart to allow light to pass through the solution. If a liquid besides water is used, then it is possible to have a nontransparant solution, such as crude oil.
Dissolving or going into solution.
A solution is formed from a solute dissolved in a solvent.
