Could a mixture be made up of only elements and no compounds. if so explain
Irina18 [472]

I racked my brain for almost 10 minutes, until suddenly,
it hit me !

You're breathing one right now !  So am I .

Air is a mixture of a lot of elements. 
Nitrogen, Oxygen, and Argon account for  99.964 percent.

The other 0.036 percent is mainly Neon, Helium, Krypton,
and Hydrogen ... more elements.

Then there are Carbon Dioxide and water vapor.
Yes, those are compounds.  But together, they add up
to very little of the air we breathe, and if both of them
suddenly disappeared, we would hardly notice it.

What direction does centripetal acceleration point?
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

Inward

Explanation:

As the centripetal force acts upon an object moving in a circle at constant speed, the force always acts inward as the velocity of the object is directed tangent to the circle. This would mean that the force is always directed perpendicular to the direction that the object is being displaced. hope this helps :)
