Answer 1

Answer:

Filtration

Explanation:

Filtration is a physical separation technique that is used to separate solids from liquids or gases. The process involves the use of a filter which allows just the liquid to pass through.

In this case, the coffee beans is the solid and the boiling water is the liquid. The special piece of paper is the medium (filter) through which the coffee is collected.

The coffee coming through the special piece of paper (filter) is called a filtrate.
