<em>From the above options, the best </em><em>Thermal insulator </em><em>will be a </em><em>Plastic cup.</em>
Option (b);
<u>Explanation</u>
Thermal insulators resist to conduct energy or reduction of heat transfer when objects come across in contact with radiation or higher heat object. To conduct energy we need metal or those materials which contain free electrons in it to move from one metal to another.
Plastic doesn't have metallic character so it will resist the heat up to some threshold. Mostly this material is used in separating two current-conducting material. There are many other examples of thermal insulator such as Rubber, fabrics, paper, wood, wool.
Answer: Option (4) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
A mixture is defined as a substance that contains two or more different substance that are physically mixed with each other.
If solute particles are evenly distributed in a solvent then it is known as a homogeneous mixture.
For example, salt dissolved in water is a homogeneous mixture.
If solute particles are unevenly distributed into the solvent then it is known as a heterogeneous mixture.
For example, sand in water is a heterogeneous mixture.
Thus, we can conclude that the statement a mixture must contain at least two different substances, is correct about mixtures.
