    Solution

    Explanation: Raw materials often occur in sizes that are too large to be used and, therefore, they must be reduced in size. This size-reduction operation can be divided into two major categories depending on whether the material is a solid or a liquid. If it is solid, the operations are called grinding and cutting, if it is liquid, emulsification or atomization. All depend on the reaction to shearing forces within solids and liquids.
