A drop of iquid mercury is D. <span> a pure substance and an element. This is because mercury is an element which exists as liquid in the normal or standard conditions. It is a metal that is toxic to all environments. It is pure because it is composed only of one kind of substance.</span>

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.

Answer:

<u>5 moles S x (36.02 g S/mole S) = 180.1 grams of S</u>

Explanation:

The periodic table has mass units for every element that can be correlated with the number of atoms of that element.  The relationship is known as Avogadro's Number.  This number, 6.02x10^{23} , is nicknamed the mole, which scientists found to be a lot more catchy, and easier to write than  6.02x10^{23}.  <u>The mole is correlated to the atomic mass of that element.</u>  The atomic mass of sulfur, S, is 36.02 AMU, atomic mass units.  <u>But it can also be read as 36.02 grams/mole.</u>

<u></u>

<u>This means that 36.02 grams of S contains 1 mole (6.02x</u>10^{23}<u>) of S atoms</u>.

<u></u>

This relationship holds for all the elements.  Zinc, Zn, has an atomic mass of 65.38 AMU, so it has a "molar mass" of 65.38 grams/mole.  ^5.38 grams of Zn contains 1 mole of Zn atoms.  

And so on.

5.0 moles of Sulfur would therefore contain:

(5.0 moles S)*(36.02 grams/mole S) = <u>180.1 grams of S</u>

Note how the units cancel to leaves just grams.  The units are extremely helpful in mole calculations to insure the correct mathematical operation is done.  To find the number of moles in 70 g of S, for example, we would write:

(70g S)/(36.02 grams S/mole S) = 1.94 moles of S.  [<u>Note how the units cancel to leave just moles</u>]

The graph shows the volume of a gaseous product formed during two trials of a reaction. A different concentration of reactant wa
solniwko [45]

A: Trial 1, because the average rate of the reaction is lower.

The rate of reaction is the speed with which reactants are converted into products. It is also the rate at which reactants disappear and products appear.  The higher the rate of reaction, the greater the amount of product formed in a reaction.

If we look at the graph, we will realize that trial 1 produces a lesser amount of product than trial 2. This implies that the  average rate of the reaction in trial 1 is lower than in trial 2.

Lower average rate of reaction implies lower concentration of the reactants since the rate of reaction depends on the concentration of reactants.

Hence trial 1 has a lower concentration of reactants because the average rate of the reaction is lower.
