What is Sedimentation and Decantation??

$\huge{\underline {\underline {\mathfrak{Answer:-}}}}$

Sedimentation is a process by which insoluble, heavy solid particles in a mixture settle down on their own, when left and undistributed for some time.In order to separate out the two,the liquid has to be gently poured into another container without disturbing the settled down solid particles, or sediments. The process, of obtaining clean liquid, by pouring it into another container without disturbing the sedimentation is called decantation.

Answer 2

Answer:

Sedimentation is the process of allowing particles in suspension in water to settle out of the suspension under the effect of gravity. The particles that settle out from the suspension become sediment, and in water treatment is known as sludge.

Decanting involves pouring the liquid portion away from the insoluble solid portion. Common examples of decantation are: • Water is decanted (poured off) from cooked potatoes, carrots and peas.
