3.One liquid mixes with another to form an homogeneous solution. Explanation Miscibility occurs when two liquids with the same intermolecular interactions are combined successfully to form a homogeneous solution. A liquid is said to be miscible if it dissolves in another liquid in all proportions. Immiscible liquids cannot dissolve completely. Solubility in liquids is highly dependent on polarity such that polar liquids will mix successfully. |
