Question

A mixture of milk and water can be separated by sedimentation and decantation.

2. Sedimentation is the process of settling down particles of a solution under the effect of gravity whereas decantation is the process of separating liquids that are immiscible or a solution of liquid and a solid mixture.

Therefore, the given statement is false.
