Question

Name the method of separation used to separate cream from milk.


Open in App
Solution

To separate cream from milk, we can use centrifugation.

This method forces (the mixture which is taken in a centrifuge tube) denser particles to move down and lighter particles to move up when rotated using a centrifugal machine.

When milk is centrifuged this way for 20 minutes, the cream can be separated.

Therefore, centrifugation is used to separate cream from milk.
