<span> purity of the substance is usually the main error (for example: water with impurities will have m.p. less than 273K or 0 degree celcius while it's b.p. will be greater than 373K or 100 degree celcius). </span>
<span>-> air/ room temperature (it takes longer to cook in mountains and shorter at beaches) </span>
<span>-> parallax error (error by determining the meniscus of the thermometer) </span>
<span>and many more..</span>

Which solution is a homogeneous mixture? sand and water salt and water salad dressing soil
Over [174]

Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A solution whose constituent particles are uniformly distributed in the solution  is known as a homogeneous solution.

In a homogeneous solution, particles of one solute completely dissolves in the solvent. This solution is also known a true solution.

When sand and water are mixed together then after a certain interval of time sand particles will settle at the bottom. Therefore, they do not dissolve in water. So, it is not a homogeneous solution.

When salt and water are mixed together then the salt particles will dissolve in water. Therefore, it is a homogeneous solution.

Salad dressing is not a homogeneous solution as it contains different solutions like oil, lemon juice etc which does not dissolve when mixed together.

On the other hand, soil is also not a homogeneous solution because we can visualize the distinct layers present in a soil. These layers when mixed in a solution does not dissolve so they did not form a homogeneous solution.

Thus, we can conclude that out of the given options, salt and water is a homogeneous mixture.

What is the frequency of radiation whose wavelength is 2.51 x 10 -7m?​
hodyreva [135]

The frequency of radiation : 1.2 x 10¹⁵ Hz

<h3>Further explanation </h3>

Radiation energy is absorbed by photons

The energy in one photon can be formulated as

\large{\boxed{\bold{E\:=\:h\:.\:f}}}

Where

h = Planck's constant (6,626.10⁻³⁴ Js)

f = Frequency of electromagnetic waves

<h3>f = c / λ </h3>

c = speed of light

= 3.10⁸  m/s

λ = wavelength

Wavelength-λ is 2.51 x 10⁻⁷m

The frequency :

\tt f=\dfrac{3.10^8}{2.51\times 10^{-7}}=1.2\times 10^{15}
