Q

What are Alloys ?

A

Alloys are mixtures of two or more metals or a metal and a non-metal and cannot be separated into their components by physical means. But still, an alloy is considered as a mixture because it shows the properties of its constituents and can have variable composition.

Q

What are the properties of a solution ?

A

• A solution is a homogeneous mixture.
• The particles of a solution are smaller than 1
nanometer and they cannot be seen by naked eyes.
• Because of very small particle size, they do not scatter a beam of light passing through the solution. So, the path of light is not visible in a solution.
• The solute particles cannot be separated from the mixture by the process of filtration. The solute particles do not settle down when left undisturbed, that is, a solution is stable
