Answer:

One kind of atom.

Step-by-step explanation:

An element consists of one kind of atom.

Al is an element, so Al consists of one kind of atom.

C and D are wrong , because Al contains only atoms of aluminium.

Answer: one kind of atom

Explanation:

Element is a pure substance which is composed of similar atoms.It can not be decomposed into simpler constituents using chemical reactions.Example: Aluminium $Al$

Compound is a pure substance which is made from atoms of different elements combined together in a fixed ratio by mass.It can be decomposed into simpler constituents using chemical reactions. Example: water $H_2O$

Thus as aluminium is made up of one kind of atom , it is considered as an element.

describe in general terms an experiment to determine the molal freezing point depression constant kf of water. Assume the availa

Dvinal [7]

A solution (in this experiment solution of NaNO₃) freezes at a lower temperature than does the pure solvent (deionized water). The higher the solute concentration (sodium nitrate), freezing point depression of the solution will be greater.
Equation describing the change in freezing point:
ΔT = Kf · b · i.
ΔT - temperature change from pure solvent to solution.
Kf - the molal freezing point depression constant.
b - molality (moles of solute per kilogram of solvent).
i - Van’t Hoff Factor.
First measure freezing point of pure solvent (deionized water). Than make solutions of NaNO₃ with different molality and measure separately their freezing points. Use equation to calculate Kf.
