Final answer:

No, ice and water cannot be separated by filtration.

Step-by-step explanation:

Ice and water cannot be separated by filtration. Filtration is a method used to separate a heterogeneous mixture of a solid and a liquid, where the liquid passes through a filter paper while leaving the solid particles behind on the filter. However, ice and water are both forms of the same substance, H2O, and are not a mixture of different substances. Therefore, they cannot be separated by filtration.
