What is the process of gently pouring off the clear liquid above sediment called?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Decantation

The governing concept is decantation, a physical separation method used after a denser, insoluble solid has settled at the bottom. First, the mixture is left undisturbed so sedimentation can occur. Then the clear liquid above the sediment is gently poured into another container without disturbing the solid. This second step is called decantation, making option A correct. Melting changes a solid into a liquid, crystallisation forms crystals from a solution or melt, and evaporation removes a liquid as vapour. Decantation does not require boiling or a filter and is especially useful when the solid particles have already settled.
