उत्तर
We will separate a mixture of common salt, sulphur powder and sand by the procedure based on the solubility of these compounds.
Sulphur is soluble in carbon disulphide but insoluble in water. Common salt is soluble in water but insoluble in carbon disulphide. Sand is insoluble in both.
When sand, common salt and sulphur is added to water and stirred vigorously, common salt will dissolve in water but others will not. The solution is then filtered using a filter paper. Filtrate containing common salt is subjected to evaporation to obtain salt.
The residue left on the filter paper contains sand and sulphur. Now, this residue is dissolved in carbon disulphide. Here, sulphur dissolves but sand remains undissolved. This is filtered again to leave behind sand as residue and sulphur solution as filtrate. The filtrate is then subjected to heating to evaporate carbon disulphide and obtain sulphur.

There is a large group of materials P which can be divided into three groups Q, R and S on the basis of their properties. The substances belonging to group Q can be solids, liquids or gases. The solids belonging to group Q are usually electrical insulators. Most of the substances of group R are solids which are good conductors of electricity. The substances belonging to group S are neither insulators like Q nor good conductors like R. The properties of S are intermediate between those of Q and R.
