A compound is a pure substance formed by the chemical combination of two or more different elements.
A compound may be splitted into simpler substances by chemical reactions, and has different properties to those of the elements that form it.
The composition of a compound is fixed: every piece of a compound has the same kind of atoms, bonded in the same way and proportion.
Some examples of compounds are H₂O, NaCl, H₂O₂, CH₃COOH. As you see, they have a chemical formula which states the kind and number of the atoms that form them.
They are different to mixtures, which are formed by two or more compounds, in a variable proportion, and can be separated by physical media. Some examples of mixtures are the solutions (e.g. NaCl dissolved in H₂O), and some solid mixtures (e.g. a mixture of marbles and sand).
Answer:
42.65g
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Mass of K = 4g
Unknown: Mass of KCl
Solution:
Complete equation of the reaction:
2K + Cl₂ → 2KCl
To solve this problem, we know that the reactant in short supply is potassium K and this dictates the amount of products that would be formed. The chlorine gas is in excess and we can't use it to determine the amount of product that would form.
Now, we work from the known to the unknown. Since we know the mass of K given in the reaction, we can simply find the molar relationship between the reacting potassium and the product. We simply convert the mass to mole and compare to the product. From there we can find the mass of KCl that would be produced.
Calculating number of moles of K
Number of moles =
Number of moles of K = = 0.103mol
From the given reaction equation:
2 moles of K will produce 2 moles of KCl
Therefore 0.103mol of K will produce 0.103mol of KCl
To find the mass of KCl produced,
Mass of KCl = number of moles of KCl x molar mass
Molar mass of KCl = 39 + 35.5 = 74.5gmol⁻¹
Mass of KCl = 0.103 x 74.5 = 42.65g

Here's what I get
Explanation:
It means that the heat comes directly at you without relying on any material to conduct it.
For example, you feel the heat from a campfire even if the wind is blowing crosswise to you and the fire.
The answer is C, since the black pig is heterozygous, it makes the majority black due to its dominant trait, but about 1 in 5 will be white
