Mark as brainlist and please like my answer

Explanation:

So the solid component which is insoluble in the mixture settles down due to gravity. Decantation is the process of separating a liquid from a solid by gently pouring the liquid into another container so as not to disturb the solid of the first container.

Answer 2

Answer:

When there is a need to separate a solid-liquid mixture, on occasion it is possible to pour off the liquid while leaving the solid behind. This process is called decanting, and is the simplest separation method. Decanting is often used to remove hydrated sodium sulfate (Na2SO4) from an organic solution.
