For a ternary mixture, in which equilateral triangular co-ordinate is used in leaching and extraction, a _______________ of the equilateral triangular co-ordinates?

Correct answer: D. Pure component is represented by the apex

  • A. Binary mixture is represented by the apex
  • B. Binary mixture is represented by any point inside
  • C. Ternary mixture is represented by the sides
  • D. Pure component is represented by the apex

Explanation

In an equilateral ternary diagram, each apex represents a pure component, each side represents a binary mixture, and interior points represent ternary mixtures. Thus, a pure component is located at an apex.
