For the first question, salt is soluble while sand is insoluble or not dissolvable in water. The salt should have vanished or melted, but the sand stayed noticeable or visible, making a dark brown solution probably with some sand particles caught on the walls of the container when the boiling water was put in to the mixture of salt and sand. The solubility of a chemical can be disturbed by temperature, and in the case of salt in water, the hot temperature of the boiling water enhanced the salt's capability to melt in it.
For the second question, the melted or dissolved salt should have easily made its way through the filter paper and into the second container, while the undissolved and muddy sand particles is caught on the filter paper. The size of the pores of the filter paper didn’t change. On the contrary, the size of the salt became smaller because it has been dissolved which is also the reason why it was able to go through the filter paper, while the size of the sand may have doubled or even tripled which made it harder to pass through.
Barium is a chemical element with symbol Ba and atomic number 56. It is the fifth element in group 2 and is a soft, silvery alkaline earth metal. Because of its high chemical reactivity, barium is never found in nature as a free element. Thanks and I hope it helped.
Pure substances cannot be separated into any other kinds of matter, while a mixture is a combination of two or more pure substances.
A pure substance has constant physical and chemical properties, while mixtures have varying physical and chemical properties.
<u>Explanation:</u>
A matter which cannot be separated into any other kind of matter using the chemical or physical process is called pure substances. A pure substance has the same color, composition, and texture.
An element consisting of a single compound with a definite composition, physical and chemical properties are called pure substances.
A combination that has as of many substances that are not united using a chemical procedure or any process is known as mixtures. A mixture does not exist in fixed proportions, and most of the natural substances are mixtures.
