Salt can be separated from its solution (salt dissolved in water), because
(a) mixing of salt in water is a change that can be reversed by heating and melting of salt
(b) mixing of salt in water is a change that cannot be reversed
(c) mixing of salt in water is a permanent ‘ change
(d) mixing of salt in water is a change that can be reversed by evaporation.
Correct Answer: (d) mixing of salt in water is a change that can be reversed by evaporation.
Explanation: Salt can be separated from its water solution by evaporating the water. Hence mixing of salt in water is a reversible change.
