Any solid that sinks to the bottom of a liquid can be called a sediment.
The substance that settles out of a suspension is called a precipitate. This occurs when the particles in the suspension are large enough to no longer remain suspended in the liquid and settle to the bottom.
To pour off the liquid at the top of a container with an insoluble substance, you can carefully tilt the container while keeping the insoluble substance in place with a stirring rod or spoon. Slowly pour off the liquid from the top while ensuring that the solid substance remains in the container. Be cautious not to disturb the solid at the bottom to prevent it from mixing with the liquid being poured off.
The word for insoluble particles dispersed in a liquid is "Colloidal".
Decantation is used to separate a mixture when one component is more dense or insoluble in the mixture. By allowing the mixture to stand undisturbed, the heavier or insoluble component settles to the bottom, allowing the clear liquid to be poured off.
Actually, an insoluble substance does not have to be a solid. Think of cooking oil. It is a liquid, however, it does not dissolve in water. Hope I helped!=) -Razzi (Delilah Hope) No an insoluble substance can be solid, liquid or gas. However, trying to dissolve one liquid into another (mixing them together) is referred to as immiscible. Mostly insoluble refers to dissolving a solid or gas into a liquid.
The insoluble material that settles at the bottom of a container is typically called sediment or precipitate. It is composed of solid particles that have separated from a liquid due to factors such as gravity or chemical reactions.

The substance that settles out of a suspension is called sediment. This occurs when the particles in the suspension are too heavy to remain suspended in the liquid and eventually settle at the bottom.

"insoluble"
When a solid does not dissolve into a liquid, it is referred to as insoluble. This means that the solid remains in its original form and does not mix evenly with the liquid.
