Answer 1

Answer:

Sugar

Explanation:

Nisha's list:                               Amol's list

  Jute                                          Vinegar

  Wood                                       Lemon juice

  Rubber                                   Cooking soda

Nisha's list is made up of things that can be derived from plants. From the list given, oil, sugar and cotton can also be obtained from plants.

Most plant materials are organic matter.

Amol's list is made up of things that can dissolve in water. Sugar and table salt can also be dissolved in water.

Water is able to dissolve these materials because they are polar compounds. One rule of solubility is that like dissolves like.

New list:

Nisha's list:                               Amol's list

  Jute                                          Vinegar

  Wood                                       Lemon juice

  Rubber                                   Cooking soda

  Sugar                                       Sugar

                                   

Only sugar from the list can be added to both lists. It can be obtained from plant and can also dissolve in water.
