Is Matter Around Us Pure?

Question:

Give examples of liquids that are
(i) completely miscible
(ii) partially miscible
(iii) practically immiscible

Answer:

(i) Liquids completely miscible: mix in all proportions. e.g. alcohol and water (ii) Liquids partially miscible: dissolve in each other to a limit. e.g. ether and water (iii) Liquids practically immiscible: e.g. benzene and water
