Science6 1 Quarter Practice Test Fill in The Blanks:: Decantation
________________ 13. is a process that allows the sediments (solid particles) to settle at the
bottom of the container. After the particles have settled, the clear liquid (called supernatant liquid)
is carefully poured into another container without disturbing the sediments. This is decantation. A
glass rod is used when pouring to prevent the liquid from spilling.
________________ 14. is the process of separating solid components from liquid or gas
components using a filter or filtering medium, like a filter paper. The solid particles (called residue)
remain in the filter paper while the clear liquid (called the filtrate) passes through the filter paper
and is collected in another container.
________________ 16. uses a magnet to attract magnetic substances and separate them from
non-magnetic substances.
________________ 17. is making rock salt from seawater by making the water evaporate through
heating.
