Question

Differentiate between sedimentation, decantation and filtration ​

Answer 1

Answer: SEDIMENTATION: The process of formation of sedimentary rocks. the deposition or production of sediment.

DECANTATION: It is defined as the separation process in which two immiscible liquids are separated. This is done by pouring out the clear upper layer of liquid. Separation of a mixture of oil from water is an example of decantation.

FILTERATION: It is defined as the separation process in which insoluble impurities are separated from the solution. Filtration is done with the help of filter paper.

Answer 2

${\pink{\sf\underline{Sedimentation \:and\: Decantation}}}$

⟹ These methods are used to separate heavy insoluble solid components from a liquid components present in the mixture.

⟹ Examples = A mixture of sand, rice and dal.

${\pink{\sf\underline{Filtration}}}$

⟹ This method is used to separate insoluble solid components from liquid components.

⟹ Examples = Sand and water.
