Detailed Solution

The above statement is true.
The process of sedimentation and decantation can separate sand and water. When the heavier component, sand in a mixture settles after water is added to it, the process is called sedimentation. The sand settles at the bottom of the container and the clear water rises. This clear upper liquid (water) is free from any residue. The pouring of this clear upper liquid into another container is called decantation. So, a mixture of sand and water can be separated using the methods of sedimentation and decantation.
