Science Lab Experiment: Filtration


Demonstration: The Filtering of Solutions

Object: To separate a solute from the solvent.

Materials: beaker, copper sulfate solution (blue), filter paper, funnel

Diagram:
filtering of solutions


Method: The blue copper sulfate solution was poured through the filter paper into the funnel.

Observations: It was observed that the blue copper sulfate solution passed through the filter paper with no change in colour.

Conclusions: The solute could not be separated from the solution by filtration.
