Give reason why copper metal is used for making electric wires.
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.

100 mL of water at room temperature of 25°C is taken in a beaker and a little of solid S is dissolved in it by stirring to obtain a solution X. More and more of solid S is added to the solution with constant stirring, while keeping the temperature of solution constant at 30°C. After some time it is observed that no more solid dissolves in water and at the same time some solid is also left undissolved at the bottom of the beaker.
- The contents of beaker are filtered through a filter paper to obtain solution Y in the form of a filtrate.
- What name is given to solutions like X ?
- What name is given to solutions like Y ?
- What will you observe if the solution Y at 30°C is cooled down to 10°C by keeping the beaker in crushed ice ? Why ?
