प्रश्न
What difference in the properties of common salt and sand would enable you to separate a mixture of these two substances ?
उत्तर
The differences in the properties of common salt and sand that enable us to separate a mixture of these two substances are:
- Difference in the solubility of sand and salt. Salt is soluble in water, whereas sand is not. Therefore, we can separate sand from salt by taking water as solvent in the process of filtration.
- Salt is a solid that cannot vaporise. Thus, it can be obtained by the process of evaporation. In this process, all the water will evaporate leaving behind common salt.

There are three substances X, Y and Z. The substance X does not have a fixed melting point or boiling point and it still shows the individual properties of its constituents. The substance Y is a pure substance which occurs in nature as such. The substance Y has a fixed melting point and boiling point but it cannot be broken down into simpler substances by any chemical means. The substance Z is also a pure substance whose properties are entirely different from those of its constituents. The substance Z can, however, be divided by electrolysis into two substances which belong to the same class of substances as Y.
