How will you separate a mixture of cooking oil (groundnut oil) and water ?
Advertisements
उत्तर
We will separate cooking oil and water by using a separating funnel as cooking oil and water are two immiscible liquids. Due to the difference in the densities of the two liquids, cooking oil, being lighter than water, floats over it and forms the upper layer, whereas water forms the lower layer. On opening the stop-cock, the lower layer of water comes out first and is collected in a beaker. Cooking oil is left behind in the separating funnel.

Is air a mixture or a compound ? Give three reasons for your answer.
Three mixtures A, B and C are obtained by stirring three different solids in water taken in separate beakers. When mixture A is allowed to stand for some time, then its particles settle at the bottom of the beaker. When a beam of light is passed through mixture A in a dark room, the path of light becomes visible when observed from the side of the beaker. When mixture B is allowed to stand for a considerable time, even then its particles do not settle down. Mixture B, however, scatters the beam of light just like mixture A. The particles of mixture C do not settle down on keeping and it also does not scatter a beam of light passing through it.
