Question

In science class, Jonathan added a small amount of sand to a beaker of water. He stirred it vigorously so that all the sand swirled around in the water. Jonathan then claimed to his classmates that he had made a solution. However, his teacher told Jonathan that he was mistaken. Why was the teacher correct?




Jonathan made a compound, not a mixture


A solid substance cannot dissolve in water to form a solution


The sand will eventually settle to the bottom and will not dissolve in the water


A chemical reaction did not take place, so a solution was not formed

Answer 1

Answer:

I am so sorry.

l don't no.

l am sorry.

Answer 2

Answer:

c) The sand will eventually settle to the bottom and will not dissolve in water.

Sand particles are insoluble in water, so when they get mixed, the sand particles gets mixed up in the liquid but doesn't get dissolved. And after sometime, if the beaker is kept, still, the sand will get accumulated in the bottom of the beaker.

Solution = Solute + Solvent

So, your answer is Opt. (C).

Hope this helps...
