Question

Two identical clear liquids were placed in separate containers labeled Sample A and Sample B. Both containers were left open until all the liquid evaporated in each. It was later observed that the container holding Sample A was empty. Meanwhile, white crystalline solids were found in the container of Sample B.

Which of the following statements is FALSE about the given situation?

Select one:
a.The white crystalline solid is soluble in the liquid present in Sample B.
b.Filtration can be used to separate the white crystalline solids in Sample B prior to evaporation.
c.The absence of residue in Sample A after evaporation implies that it could be a pure substance.
d.Sample A and Sample B both exist as one distinct phase before evaporation.
