Answer: D) a pure substance and an element

Explanation:

Mercury is an element which is composed of similar atoms and is a pure substance.

Element is a pure substance which is composed of atoms of similar elements.

Compound is a pure substance which is made from atoms of different elements combined together in a fixed ratio by mass.

Mixtures are impure substances and are heterogeneous materials as they do not have uniform composition and the components are not evenly distributed throughout the material.

Calculate the specific heat of a substance when 63j of energy are transferred as heat to an 8.0 g sample to raise it temperature
Flura [38]

The formula for energy or enthalpy is:

E = m Cp (T2 – T1)

where E is energy = 63 J, m is mass = 8 g, Cp is the specific heat, T is temperature

 

63 J = 8 g * Cp * (340 K – 314 K)

<span>Cp = 0.3 J / g K</span>

Write a balanced net ionic equation for the following reaction: SrCl2(aq) + H2CO3(aq) → SrCO3(s) + HCl (aq)
max2010maxim [7]
  We will balance the equation in the following order: metals, amethals, carbon, hydrogen and oxygen (the most common order).
  The metal present in the equation is Sr, which is already balanced (there are 1 on each side of the equation).
  The amethal present in the equation is Cl. There is 2 Cl in the left side and only one in the right side. So, we will multiply the quantity of the molecule that contains Cl by 2. Doing this, we'll obtain:

SrCl_2_{(aq)}+H_2CO_3_{(aq)}\to SrCO_3_{(s)}+2HCl_{(aq)}
 
  Looking at the equation, we can see that it is now fully balanced. Hence, a balanced equation of the reaction is:

SrCl_2_{(aq)}+H_2CO_3_{(aq)}\to SrCO_3_{(s)}+2HCl_{(aq)}

Since gravitational force is inversely proportional to the square of the separation distance between the two interacting objects, more separation distance will result in weaker gravitational forces. So as two objects are separated from each other, the force of gravitational attraction between them also decreases. -google
