Explain why it is important that there be no gaps around the edges of the filter paper during a vacuum filtration.

Vacuum filtration is a separation technique that is used to separate a solid product from a liquid. The method involves pouring the mixture of the solid and the liquid through a filter paper that is inserted inside a funnel. The filter paper trap the solid while the liquid is drawn through the funnel into the flask by a vacuum. It is very important to ensure that there is no gap around the edges of filter paper that is inserted into the funnel so that the mixture will not escape the filter paper and be poured directly into the flask below, thus messing up the separation process.

so what is the problem with your lab report and whats the subject of the lab report? i will you
