59
Q

List the points of differences between homogeneous and heterogeneous mixtures.

A

Homogeneous mixture
Its constituent’s particles cannot be seen easily.
There are no visible boundaries of separation in a homogeneous mixture.
Its constituents cannot be easily separated.
Examples: Alloys, solution of salt in water etc.
Heterogeneous mixture
Its constituent particles can be seen easily.
Have visible boundaries of separation between the constituents.
Its constituents can be separated by simple methods.
Examples: Mixture of sand and common salt, mixture of sand and water etc.

60
Q

How are sol, solution and suspension different from each other?

A

Solution or true solution is homogeneous.
NO Tyndall effect.

Sol or colloidal solution is heterogeneous.
Tyndall effect.
Cannot be separated by ordinary filter paper.
It may be transparent or translucent.

Suspension :
Suspension is also heterogeneous.
Tyndall effect.
It may be transparent or translucent.
Separated easily by filter paper.(because of large particles)
Examples: Mixture of sand in water, mixture of chalk in water.

64
Q

Which of the following will show ‘Tyndall effect’?
i. Milk

A

Milk- yes
Salt solution -no

65
Q

To make a saturated solution, 36 g of sodium chloride is dissolved in 100 g of water at 293 K. Find its concentration at this temperature.

A

Mass of sodium chloride (solute) = 36 g
Mass of water (solvent) = 100 g
We know that, mass of solution = mass of solute + mass of solvent
= 36 g+ 100 g= 136 g
Concentration (mass percentage) of the solution
Mass of Solute/Mass of Solutionx 100
= 36g/136 g x 100 = 26.47%
