What do you understand by (a) sedimentation, (b) decantation, and (c) condensation?
Answers
Answer:
SEDIMENTATION
It is the process of allowing the solid particles of mixture to settle down.
DECANTATION
It is the process of pouring out the left over part of the mixture to pour out in the other container without disturbing the sediments.
CONDENSATION
It is the process of converting gas to the liquid stare by cooling it down.

Answer:
a) Sedimentation: It is defined as the separation process in which solids are separated from the liquid. All the solids settle down at the bottom of a beaker and on top, a clear layer of liquid is obtained. Sedimentation is a process by which heavier impurities present in liquid normally water settle down at the bottom of the container containing the mixture. The process takes some amount of time.
b) 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.
c) Condensation: It is the process of a substance in a gaseous state transforming into a liquid state. This change is caused by a change in pressure and temperature of the substance.
