Worked practice questions

A sieve analysis is used to assess a granular material's what?

  1. Boiling point range
  2. Electrical charge level
  3. Nutrient value profile
  4. Particle size distribution
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: D. Particle size distribution

1. Recall the idea: Sieve analysis, also called a gradation test, gives particle size distribution. 2. The correct choice is: Particle size distribution. 3. The other options describe different methods or properties and do not fit this fact. _Source: Wikipedia, Sieve_

In filtration, what is the fluid that passes through called?

  1. Residue
  2. Oversize
  3. Filtrate
  4. Cake
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: C. Filtrate

1. Recall the idea: The fluid that passes through the filter is the filtrate; solids left behind are oversize. 2. The correct choice is: Filtrate. 3. The other options describe different methods or properties and do not fit this fact. _Source: Wikipedia, Filtration_

Solid particles that cannot pass through a filter medium are called what?

  1. Filtrate
  2. Oversize
  3. Solvent
  4. Eluate
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: B. Oversize

1. Recall the idea: Particles too large to pass are oversize; the fluid is the filtrate. 2. The correct choice is: Oversize. 3. The other options describe different methods or properties and do not fit this fact. _Source: Wikipedia, Filtration_
