- Yes, the mixture of puffed rice and chana dal can be separated by winnowing.
- Winnowing is a method used to separate heavier and lighter components of a mixture by wind or by blowing air.
- Puffed rice is lighter than chana dal. When the mixture is dropped from a height, the lighter puffed rice will be carried away by the wind, while the heavier chana dal will fall straight down, forming separate piles.
