Detailed Solution

The size of holes as compared to the particles of the insoluble solid for filtration of the filtering device should be smaller.
Filtration is the method to separate insoluble solids from solution by using a filtering device. The insoluble solid is retained on the filter paper, and clear liquid passes through it. For example, Clearwater can be separated from the muddy water by the process of filtration. In this process, we can use filter paper or cotton cloth. We pour the muddy water on the filter paper or the cotton cloth, the clean water passes through the tiny holes of the filter or cloth, and the larger mud particles will remain on the filter. Therefore, the size of the holes of the filtering device should be smaller as compared to the particles of the insoluble solid for filtration.
