Sample questions

1. Which of the following BEST describes the process of clarification in the context of separation techniques?

a.A mechanical process that uses a porous filter to separate components of a mixture.

b.A process where the residue retained on the filter medium is called the slurry.

c.A technique that relies on centrifugal force to separate components by density.

d.A filtration process where the amount of solid to be filtered is less than one percent.

2. In filtration, the term 'filter cake' refers to which of the following?

a.The porous material that retains the solids.

b.The solids retained on the filter medium.

c.The liquid that passes through the porous material.

d.The mixture of solids and liquids to be separated.

3. Which of the following factors is inversely proportional to the rate of filtration?

a.The pore size of the filter medium.

b.The surface area of the filter medium.

c.The positive pressure applied to the slurry.

d.The viscosity of the fluid being filtered.

4. A technician observes that a filtration process is proceeding very slowly due to a highly viscous syrup. Which of the following actions would be MOST appropriate to increase the filtration rate, assuming the syrup is not thermo-labile?

a.Decreasing the pore size of the filter medium.

b.Reducing the temperature of the syrup.

c.Increasing the thickness of the filter cake.

d.Applying a negative pressure below the filter medium.

5. Which of the following statements about the mechanisms of filtration is CORRECT?

a.Entanglement is a surface filtration mechanism where particles hit and stick to the filter medium.

b.Impingement is a depth filtration mechanism where particles get trapped in a meshwork.

c.Straining or sieving is a surface filtration mechanism with a high tendency for filter medium blockade.

d.Autofiltration occurs when electrostatic charges attract particles to ionizing wires in the filter medium.
