How may a substance be tested to determine whether or not it is an element

Chemistry

yaroslaw [1]3 years ago

Always remember that a compound can be separated into simpler substances by chemical methods/reactions. While elements cannot be broken down into simpler substances by chemical reactions. You can do a flame test and spectrum analysis to determine whether a solid material is an element or a compound. Check the boiling and/or melting point, color or density. Also check the solid material’s reaction with oxygen, hydrogen, calcium, or various acids. Examine and study its physical chemistry. The element(s) that may be present may be identified by checking the absorption edges from an x-ray spectrum.

Ba(oh)2+H3po4+h2o how is it <br> balance ?
Igoryamba

Answer:

3Ba(OH)2 + 2H3PO4 —> Ba3(PO4)2 + 6H2O

Explanation:

Ba(OH)2 + H3PO4 —> Ba3(PO4)2 + H2O

There are 3 atoms of Ba on the right side and 1atom on the left side. It can be balance by putting 3 in front of Ba(OH)2 as shown below:

3Ba(OH)2 + H3PO4 —> Ba3(PO4)2 + H2O

There are 2 atoms of P on the right side and 1atom on the left. It can be balance by putting 2 in front of H3PO4 as shown below:

3Ba(OH)2 + 2H3PO4 —> Ba3(PO4)2 + H2O

Now, there are a total of 12 atoms of H on the left side and 2 atoms on the right side. It can be balance by putting 6 in front of H2O as shown below:

3Ba(OH)2 + 2H3PO4 —> Ba3(PO4)2 + 6H2O

Now the equation is balanced as the numbers of the atoms of the different elements present on both sides are equal
