Vinegar (acetic acid solution) is a polar substance, whereas olive oil is non polar in nature. Like dissolves like. A polar substance cannot dissolve in a non polar compound. Therefore, vinegar which is polar is not soluble in olive oil, a non polar substance. Hence, in a salad dressing olive oil separates out from vinegar.

Added salt would dissolve in vinegar solution as salt, a polar substance which is chemically, sodium chloride is an ionic substance. It can dissolve in the polar vinegar solution but not olive oil.

Just find the energy of the <span>blueviolet light with a wavelength of 434.0 nm using the formula:

E  = hc / lambda

E = energy
c= speed of light =  3 x 10^8 m/s
h = planck's constant =  6.6 x 10^{-34}  m^2 kg / s
lambda =  434 nm =  434 x 10^{-9} m

Putting these values (with appropriate units) in the above formula :

we get:  Energy, E = 4.5 x 10^{-19} J

E = 0.45 x 10^{-18} J

Now, the </span>minimum energy is 2.18×10^-{18} J but our energy is 0.45 x 10^{-18} J which is less.
<span>Means the electron will not be removed
