Filtering is a method used to separate mixtures of a solid and liquid. A filter works like a sieve. A filter separates soluble and insoluble substances. It has tiny holes that let through very small particles but not bigger particles
The liquid and the soluble substances dissolved in the liquid pass through the holes.
Insoluble solid particles are too big to pass through and stay behind.
