Question
Martha places liquid substances in two separate containers. When she mixes these substances in the same container, a solid forms and settles at the bottom of the container.

The appropriate response is:
**The two liquids react chemically and form a substance that is not soluble in water.**
When two liquids are mixed and a solid (precipitate) forms, it is often due to a chemical reaction that produces an insoluble substance. This solid then settles at the bottom of the container.
