State whether the statement is True or False.

A mixture of milk and water can be separated by filtration. 

Filtration is used to remove solid particles from a liquid or a gas through a medium that allows the transfer of only fluids. In process of filtration, two insoluble components are separated by the use of a strainer or filter paper.

Thus, with strainer and filter paper, even the smaller impurities can be removed,  The solid substance left on filter paper is called a residue, and the clear liquid obtained after filtration is called the filtrate.

A mixture of milk and water is a homogenous solution A homogeneous solution is a solution with the same properties and concentrations across masses. As there is no solid insoluble impurity in the given mixture, therefore, it can't be separated by filtration.

Hence, the given statement is FALSE.
