Tincture of iodine has antiseptic properties. This solution is made by dissolving :
When the solid A is added to water, it dissolves with the evolution of a lot of heat and making little explosions to form two products B and C. The properties of products B and C are entirely different from those of solid A as well as water. Moreover, products B and C cannot be reconverted into solid A and water. When another solid D is added to water, it dissolves with the absorption of a little heat to form a product E which cools down. The product E shows the properties of both, solid D as well as water. Moreover, product E can be converted into solid D and water.
(a) What type of change occurs when solid A is dissolved in water ? Why ?
(b) What type of change occurs when solid D is dissolved in water ? Why ?
(c) Name a metal which you think could behave like solid A. Also name the products B and C.
(d) Name the solid D if it is the one which is used in making ordinary dry cells.

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 ?
