Describe a solution and tell if the parts are mixed chemically or physically.
ANTONII [103]
Hey there! Let's get that problem solved! 

First: Let's define, "solution." 

Solution: <span>a liquid mixture in which the minor component (the solute) is uniformly distributed within the major component (the solvent).

Next: Ask yourself, "can a solution be taken apart?" 

In some cases, yes. It can. 

The solution of salt water for example, can be physically separated by evaporation. (place salt-water in a pot on a heated stove, place the cover to the pot on the opening, wait a few minutes, remove the top, and you can (and taste) the water without the salt!)  </span><span />

Why doesn’t a broken wineglass spontaneously fix itself, from a thermodynamic point of view?
Alla [95]
The answer is the option<span> 3.) Fixing a wineglass requires a large decrease in entropy.



Entropy is a termodynamical variable and it is defined as the degree of disorder of the system.



As per the second law of thermodynamics the spontaneous changes only occur when the entropy increases.



</span>Fixing the broken glasses by itself meant to decrease the entropy spontaneusly which violate the principle or second law of thermodynamics. So, it is not possible.
