प्रश्न
Describe in your own words, what happens to the particles when salt dissolves in water.

उत्तर
Both salt and water are made up of tiny particles that are invisible under the microscope. When salt dissolves in water, the tiny salt particles occupy the spaces between the water particles and mix with them, thus giving a salty taste to the water. When we mix salt with water there is no increase in the volume of water, as the salt particles take up the inter-molecular spaces of water.

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.

- What type of substance could Z be ? Name one substance like Z.
