Detailed Solution

The process of settling down particles of a solid in a liquid is sedimentation.
The procedure of settling down heavier insoluble debris at the bottom of a liquid is referred to as sedimentation. An insoluble solid, suspended in a liquid can be separated from that liquid by letting the insoluble solid settle down at the bottom and this process is called as sedimentation. The insoluble solid that settles down is known as sediment and the clear liquid that comes up is known as supernatant. The supernatant can be poured out in a different container without disturbing the sediments and this process is called decantation.
