But a glass can be considered to b consisting even smaller units. Salt is a type of granular substance. But glass is not a chip-like substance. Then?

I don't get it salt and grain chip and glass all are confusing!

Karthik said:   1 decade ago
I don't understand this.

Jashwanth said:   1 decade ago
I too think the same, all other options have some relation except option D, So 'D' is the answer (may be).

Grain of salt means a small amount of salt. Similarly a chip of glass means a small parts of glass.

Grain and chip almost have the same meaning.

Saran said:   1 decade ago
Here grain refers to rice grain as sme small part of salt and simillarly chip can be part of glass.

Ridhi said:   1 decade ago
Option D is correct because when we consider each and every single particle of salt that is known as grain & when glass breaks into pieces then that is known as chips.

I didn't understand why answer is chip and glass. What is the relation?

Subhrangsu said:   1 decade ago
Ridhi may be right. It sounds a bit logical.

@swetha : the small broken part of glass is called glass chips.

That is the relationship between glass and chip.
