Miscibility of Fluids in Chemistry

Miscibility of Fluids in Chemistry On the off chance that you add 50 mL of water to 50 mL of water you get 100 mL of water. Likewise, on the off chance that you include 50 mL of ethanol (liquor) to 50 mL of ethanol you get 100 mL of ethanol. Be that as it may, in the event that you blend 50 mL of water and 50 mL of ethanol you get around 96 mL of fluid, not 100 mL. Why? The appropriate response has to do with the various sizes of the water and ethanol particles. Ethanol particles are littler than water atoms, so when the two fluids are combined the ethanol falls between the spaces left by the water. Its like what happens when you blend a liter of sand and a liter of rocks. You get under two liters complete volume in light of the fact that the sand fell between the stones, isn't that so? Consider miscibility mixability and its simple to recollect. Liquid volumes (fluids and gasses) arent essentially added substance. Intermolecular powers (hydrogen holding, London scattering powers, dipole-dipole powers) likewise have their influence in miscibility, however that is another story.
