Question

How can we separate cream from milk?

Answer 1

Centrifugation method:-

• It is a type of system which uses centrifugal force to isolate the individual components of a liquid, fluid, and even gases.
• By spinning the fluid at high speed in a bottle it separates fluid of different densities from the solids, it is achieved.
• For example, separating cream from milk

Separating cream from milk:-

• Separation of cream from milk can be done by centrifugation method.
• The milk is rotated at a very high speed in order to carry this method.
• Since the cream is lighter than milk, thus it floats over the heavier and skimmed milk.
• This happens because when milk is rotated at a very high speed due to this the centrifugal force acts on the milk.
• Thus this separates the milk from the cream.
