What is Sedimentation ?

Answer :- 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.

What is Decantation ?

Answer :- Decantation is a process for the separation of mixtures of immiscible liquids or of a liquid and a solid mixture such as a suspension. To put it in a simple way decantation is separating an immiscible solution by transferring the top layer of the solution to another container.
