4 0

<span>In a salt solution (a solution of water (H2O) and Salt, chemical formula NaCl), the positively charged Hydrogen atoms from water form bonds with the negatively charged Chloride atoms of Salt (which is the formulate NaCl), and the negatively charged oxygen atom of water (one atom per water molecule) form a bond with the positively charged Sodium ions (Na) of salt.</span>

What ultimately determines what type of solution you have? Why can’t we just use this property? Explain in terms of the tyndall

nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

The solutions are classified according to their ability to scatter light rays.

We can't just use this property because some true solutions also contain undissolved solute.

Explanation:

Tyndall effect refers to the ability of a solution to scatter light rays. True solutions do not scatter light rays while false solutions scatter light rays.

Colloid particles are not large enough to be seen with naked eyes unlike suspensions. We should not confuse a colloid with a suspension because in a suspension, the dispersed solutes are seen with naked eye.

Suppose you have been given the task of distilling a mixture of hexane + toluene. Pure hexane has a refractive index of 1.375 an

miv72 [106K]

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

Refractive index of mixture = 1.456

Refractive index of hexane = 1.375

Refractive index of toulene = 1.497

Let mole fraction of hexane = $x_{1}$
