Describe the method of centrifugation using an appropriate example.
The one who will answer my question first, I will that person as the Brainlest answer.

Answer:
The method of separating denser particles and lighter particles from a mixture by using a centrifuging machine is called centrifugation. If we take some milk in a centrifugation machine and spin it rapidly, the cream separates from the milk because cream is less dence than milk.

CENTRIFUGATION - DEFINITION
Centrifugation is the process where a mixture is separated through spinning. Centrifugation uses a centrifuge.
WORKING OF A CENTRIFUGE - DEFINITION
Centrifugation is sedimentation of particles under the influence of the centrifugal force and it is used for separation of superfine suspensions.The centrifuge holds the top of the tubes(in which a mixture is put), and the bottom is allowed to angle out. As it spins, the larger particles would get flung out further, and smaller particles would stay closer to the center.
APPLICATIONS OF CENTRIFUGATION - DEFINITION
Separation of cream from milk.
Extraction of a pure sample of blood serum from blood, for testing purpose.
METHOD OF SEPARATING CREAM FROM MILK - DEFINITION
A separator is a centrifugal device that separates milk into cream and skimmed milk. Separation was commonly performed on farms in the past. Most farmers milked a few cows, usually by hand, and separated milk.

Milk is a suspension of tiny droplets of oil (cream) in a watery liquid. The process of centrifugation is to separate cream from milk. The milk is put in a closed container in big centrifuge machine.When the centrifuge machine is switched on, the milk is rotated (or spun) at a very high speed container Due to this the milk separates into 'cream' and 'skimmed milk .The cream, being lighter, floats over the skimmed milk.It can then be removed. Thus, cream is separated from milk by centrifugation.
