Hi CielArtistique3354 😊

Thanks fo your question!

Decantation is a process that separates immiscible substances that do not have the same density.

Centrifugation is a separation technique which, by the action of centrifugal force, makes it possible to separate 2 to 3 phases of a mixture.

The technique of sieving consists of separating the components of a mixture of solid substances using a sieve.

Filtration is a technique which makes it possible to separate the components of a mixture when one of the components is in the liquid phase and the other is in the solid phase.

Evaporation is a process by which the liquid part of a mixture is removed by turning it into gas.

Distillation is a mixture separation technique used to separate the components of a liquid homogeneous mixture or of a heterogeneous mixture involving at least one liquid phase.

Here's the file on these subjects.
