Answer:

a). iron ore - is a heterogeneous substance.

b). quartz - is a homogeneous substance.

c). granite - is a heterogeneous substance.

d). energy drink - is a heterogeneous substance.

e). oil-and-vinegar salad dressing - is a heterogeneous substance.

f). salt - is a homogeneous substance.

g). rainwater - is a heterogeneous substance.

h). nitrogen - is a homogeneous substance.

Explanation:

a). iron ore - is a heterogeneous substance as iron core contains iron and other impurities

b). quartz - is a homogeneous substance as it is only made up of carbon

c). granite - is a heterogeneous substance as it is made up of multiple minerals.

d). energy drink - is a heterogeneous substance as it contains various substances mixed in it

e). oil-and-vinegar salad dressing - is a heterogeneous substance as oil and vinegar itself are different compounds

f). salt - is a homogeneous substance as it only contains one type of molecule

g). rainwater - is a heterogeneous substance as it contains water and other minerals

h). nitrogen - is a homogeneous substance as it is only made of one type of molecule.

Which statement describes an Arrhenius acid? A. It is a proton donor. B. It is a proton acceptor. C. It produces hydroxide ions

Katen [24]

Hello.

The answer is: D it produces hyrogen ions in a solution.

This is correct because when Arrhenius acid it turns into hydrogen ions.substance as an acid if it produces hydrogen ions H(+) or hydronium ions in water. A substance is classified as a base if it produces hydroxide ions OH(-) in water.

How many protons and electrons are present in Au+?

balandron [24]

Answer:

Protons: 79

Electrons: 78

Explanation:

1. The number of protons is the atomic number (The atomic number for Au on the periodic table is 79)

2. Since the charge is +1 (positive) it means that there's one more proton than electrons. So, 79-1 = 78 electrons

This is very urgent please hurry!!?!!??!

yawa3891 [41]

Answer:

The greatest acceleration when the unbalanced force is applied will be experienced in :

A) The box with a mass of 2 kg

Explanation:

According to second law of motion the external unbalanced force is directly proportional to rate of change of momentum.

F = (Final momentum - initial momentum)/time

Force is equal to the product of mass and acceleration

F = m x a

Here a= acceleration

m = mass of the object

If Force is constant then acceleration is inversely proportional to mass

$a =\frac{F}{m}$

A) The box with a mass of 2kg

F = 8 N

$a =\frac{8}{2}$

a = 4 m/s2

B) The box with the mass of 4kg

$a =\frac{8}{4}$

a = 2 m/s2

C) The box with a mass of 6kg

$a =\frac{8}{6}$

a = 1.33 m/s2

D) The box with a mass of 8kg

$a =\frac{8}{8}$

a = 1 m/s2

2NO + 3MnO2 + 4H â 2NO3- + 3Mn2 + 2H2O For the above redox reaction, assign oxidation numbers and use them to identify the eleme

mixer [17]

Answer:

Manganese decreases from 4+ to 2+ (reduced and oxidizing agent) and nitrogen increases from 2+ to 5+ (oxidized and reducing agent).

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, according to the given redox reaction, we rewrite it as a convenient first step:

$2NO + 3MnO_2 + 4H^+ \rightarrow 2NO_3^- + 3Mn^{2+} + 2H_2O$

Next, we assign the oxidation numbers as follows:

$2N^{2+}O^{2-} + 3Mn^{4+}O^{-2}_2 + 4H^+ \rightarrow 2(N^{5+}O^{2-}_3)^- + 3Mn^{2+} + 2H^+_2O^{2-}$

Thus, we can see that both manganese and nitrogen undergo a change in their oxidation number, the former decreases from 4+ to 2+ (reduced and oxidizing agent) and the latter increases from 2+ to 5+ (oxidized and reducing agent).

Regards!
