The solid can simple be called solid. The liquid collected in the buchner flask is the filtrate
Turning off the water pump when washing a solid in a buchner funnel prevents the loss of the solid during the washing process. The suction created by the pump can pull the solid out of the funnel if the pump is left on.
A Buchner funnel is commonly used in laboratories for separating solids from liquids through vacuum filtration. It consists of a perforated plate and a flask below to collect the filtrate, which allows for the liquid to pass through while retaining the solid material on the plate.
The Nobel Prize in Chemistry 1907 was awarded to Eduard Buchner for his biochemical researches and his discovery of cell-free fermentation.
I used a funnel to transfer the liquid into a bottle.
