1.

2.Distinguish between homogeneous andheterogeneous mixtures.Describe the processes of sedimentation and decantation with the help of anexample.​

Answer»

Explanation:

HOMOGENEOUS mixture is a solid, liquid or gaseous mixture that has the same proportions of its components throughout any given sample. Conversely, a heterogeneous mixture has components in which proportions vary throughout the sample.

Sedimentation is defined as the separation process in which solids are separated from the liquid. All the solids SETTLE down at the bottom of a beaker and on TOP, a clear LAYER of liquid is obtained. Decantation is defined as the separation process in which TWO immiscible liquids are separated.
