Name the separation technique which could be used to separate mud and water without heating

Decantation

Explanation:

Decantation is a process to separate

mixtures by removing a liquid layer that

is free of a precipitate, or the solids

deposited from a solution. The purpose

may be to obtain a decant (liquid free

from particulates) or to recover the

precipitate.

Decantation relies on gravity to pull

precipitate out of the solution, so there is

always some loss of product, either from

the precipitate not fully falling out of the

solution or from liquid remaining when

separating it from the solid portion.

The Decanter

A piece of glassware called a decanter is

used to perform decantation. There are

several decanter designs. A simple

version is a wine decanter, which has a

wide body and a narrow neck. When

wine is poured, solids stay in the base of

the decanter.

In the case of wine, the solid is usually

potassium bitartrate crystals. For

chemistry separations, a decanter may

have a stopcock or valve to drain the

precipitate or dense liquid, or it may

have a partition to separate fractions.

Use of Alum and filtration process can also be administered for further purification

the ratio of the conjugate base to the acid required to attain the desired ph.
