Milk of Magnesia is :
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.

The best way to recover sugar from an aqueous sugar solution is :
A solid mixture contains four constituents P, Q, R and S. P consists of tiny grains and it is mixed with
cement for plastering the walls. Q is a white solid which is recovered on a large scale from sea water by the
process of evaporation. R is in the form of tiny particles of a material whose corrosion is called rusting. And
S is a white solid which is used in making ordinary dry cells.
- What could P, Q, R and S be ?
- How would you separate a mixture containing P, Q, R and S ?
