Answer:

Use a magnet; Mixture

Explanation:

Suppose you have a container filled with iron and sand. You can separate the iron from the sand if you use a magnet so this is a mixture.

  • A mixture is made up of two more components that are not chemically combined.
  • Mixtures may be classified as homogeneous when the components are in the same phase or heterogeneous when the components are in different phases.
  • A mixture of sand and iron is an example of solid-solid mixture which can be separated using a magnet.
  • The magnet will attract the iron in the mixture leaving the sand.

If oil spills continue, all of the following should be expected except (2 points)
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

Polluted ground water.

Explanation:

The rocks through which water flows into the ground sieves most of the contaminants whose molecules are larger than most bacteria. Such molecules include but are not limited oil molecules. Therefore as it descends to the lower levels of the soil profile, water is subjected to continuous filtration by the layers and it is the least susceptible to contamination by oil spills.

Water is produced from the reaction of hydrogen and oxygen gas, according to the equation below. What is the excess reactant in
liq [111]

Explanation:

Mole ratio of Oxygen to Hydrogen gas = 1 : 2.

If we use 3.0 moles of oxygen gas, we would need 3.0 * 2 = 6.0 mol of hydrogen gas.

However we only have 4.2 mol of hydrogen. Therefore hydrogen is limiting and oxygen is in excess. (B)

Metals react with oxygen to give oxides with the general formula MxOy. What is a balanced chemical equation for the reaction of
katovenus [111]

Answer: 4Fe+3O_2\rightarrow 2Fe_2O_3

Explanation:

For formation of a neutral ionic compound, the charges on cation and anion must be balanced. The cation is formed by loss of electrons by metals and anions are formed by gain of electrons by non metals.  

Here iron is having an oxidation state of +3 called as Fe^{3+} cation and oxide O^{2-} is an anion with oxidation state of -2. Thus they combine and their oxidation states are exchanged and written in simplest whole number ratios to give neutral Fe_2O_3.

According to the law of conservation of mass, mass can neither be created nor be destroyed. Thus the mass of products has to be equal to the mass of reactants. The number of atoms of each element has to be same on reactant and product side. Thus chemical equations are balanced.

2Fe+3O_2\rightarrow 2Fe_2O_3
