उत्तर
The differences in the properties of common salt and sand that enable us to separate a mixture of these two substances are:
- Difference in the solubility of sand and salt. Salt is soluble in water, whereas sand is not. Therefore, we can separate sand from salt by taking water as solvent in the process of filtration.
- Salt is a solid that cannot vaporise. Thus, it can be obtained by the process of evaporation. In this process, all the water will evaporate leaving behind common salt.

One of the following substances is neither a good conductor of electricity nor an insulator. This substance is :
A, B and C are all liquids. Liquid A has a comparatively low boiling point. On heating, liquid A vaporises completely without leaving behind any residue. Liquid A is being used increasingly as a fuel in motor vehicles either alone or by mixing with petrol. Liquid B has a very high boiling point. It also vaporises completely on heating, without leaving any residue. Liquid B is a conductor of electricity and used in making thermometers. Liquid C has a moderate boiling point. On heating, liquid C vaporises leaving behind a white solid D which is used in cooking vegetables. The condensation of vapours from C give a liquid E which turns anhydrous CuSO4 to blue.
