Question

What is sedimentation ? ​

Answer 1

$\huge\mathfrak\purple{Answer}$

Sedimentation is a process in which heavier particles of an insoluble solid in a liquid settle down. The solid particles called sediments settle down during sedimentation forming a layer.

Answer 2

Explanation:

Sedimentation is the tendency for particles in suspension to settle out of the fluid in which they are entrained and come to rest against a barrier. This is due to their motion through the fluid in response to the forces acting on them: these forces can be due to gravity, centrifugal acceleration, or electromagnetism
