Question

When a crystal of potassium permanganate is placed in a beaker containing water,its purple colour spreads throughout the water. what do you conclude from this observation about the nature of potassium permanganate and water?

Answer 1

due to the process of diffusion the crystal of potassium permanganate gets dissolved in it and the purple colour of potassium permanganate gets spread in water

Answer 2

When 2 or 3 crystals of potassium permanganate are dissolved in water. They get mixed with water as water and crystals have space between them and we can say that particles of matter are very small.
