Answer:

A solution is a heterogeneous mixture

Explanation:

This statement that a solution is a heterogeneous mixture is completely and totally wrong.

A solution is a homogeneous mixture.

Homogeneous mixtures have their constituents existing in just one phase.

It is a homogeneous mixture of solutes and solvents.
In a solution, the solutes particles are distributed uniformly in the solvent.
The solute is the substance that is dissolved to make the solution.
Solutes are usually present in a small amount than the solvent.
The solvent acts as the dispersing medium which allows the solute to go into the solution.
The solute can be solid, liquid or gas.

Atomic number and the number of protons are the same...
Neutrons = Mass number - number of protons
Electrons are same # unless there is a charge
The whole number you see on the periodic table is the atomic number of the element which is also same as the number of protons

1) carbon - 14 ; Mass number = 14 , Protons = 6 , Neutrons = 14 - 6 = 8
  Electrons = 6

2) Lead - 208 ; Mass # = 208 , Protons = 82 , Neutrons = 208 - 82 = 126
  Electrons = 82

3) Uranium - 239 ; Mass # = 239  , Protons = 92,Neutrons = 239 - 92 = 147
Electrons =  92

4) Uranium - 238 ; Mass # = 238 , Protons = 92 , Neutrons = 238 - 92 = 146
Electrons = 92

5) Tin - 118 ; Mass # = 118 , Protons = 50 , Neutrons = 118 - 50 = 68
Electrons = 50

Identify each of the following household substances as a strong electrolyte, weak electrolyte, or non-electrolyte: salt solution

wolverine [178]

Answer:

Electrolytes are substances that can ionize in water. They could be acids, bases or salts as long as they give ions when they dissolve in water.

Explanation:

Strong electrolytes completely ionize when dissolved in water, leaving no neutral molecules. The strong electrolytes here are: salt water, baking soda (NaHCO3) solution.
Weak electrolytes do not completely dissociate in solution, and hence have a low ionic yield. Examples of this would be vinegar and bleach (which could be sodium hypochlorite or chlorine, which are weakly dissociated).
Non-electrolytes will remain as molecules and are not ionized in water at all. In this case, sugar solution is a non-electrolytes, even though sugar dissolves in water, but it remains as a whole molecule and not ions.
