Question

define sediments and supernatant with one example of each​

Answer 1

$\huge{ \underline{ \mathbb{ \blue{ Supernate}}}}$

In chemistry, the supernate is the name given to the liquid found above a precipitate or sediment. Usually, the fluid is translucent. The term is best applied to the liquid above a precipitation reaction, after the precipitate has settled out, or to the liquid above the pellet from centrifugation. However, it may be applied to describe liquid after sediment has settled out of any mixture.

$\huge{ \underline{ \mathbb{ \blue{Sediment}}}}$

Sediment is any particulate matter that can be transported by fluid flow and which eventually is deposited as a layer of solid particles on the bed or bottom of a body of water or other liquid. Sedimentation is the deposition by settling of a suspended material.
