Hey
here's your answer !!

The solids which when kept in open , form a solution ( saturated solution ) after some time are called deliquescent substances.

------

The property by the virtue of which a solid kept in open absorbs moisture from the atmosphere until it forms a saturated solution is called deliquescency.

An Example of a deliquescent salts is magnesium chloride .

Magnesium chloride is present is common table salt. Hence during the rainy season , the table salt absorbs moisture from the atmosphere and becomes watery.

NOTE : SODIUM CHLORIDE IS NOT DELIQUESCENT .

Hope it helps !!

Hey your answer...

The solids which when kept in open , form a solution ( saturated solution ) after some time are called deliquescent substances. The property by the virtue of which a solid kept in open absorbs moisture from the atmosphere until it forms a saturated solution is called deliquescency.

So, the example is FeCl3, MgCl, etc.

Hope this helps you!!!!
