TABLE SALT IS A SUBSTANCE.
In chemistry, a substance refers to a matter which has specific composition and specific properties which do not change. A substance can be an element or a compound. A substance typically has a constant composition, which can not be separated by physical methods.
In the question given above, table salt is an example of a chemical substance because, it has a constant specific composition and its components can not be separated by physical methods. 
Seawater and sand are not substances, because they have varied compositions and their components can be separated by physical methods.

What may be expected when K > 1.0?
lora16 [44]

The two correct statements are:

1. The concentration of one or more of the products is small

2. The reaction will proceed to the right and favor the formation of products.

LeChatelier's Principle states that when a stress is imposed on a system at equilibrium, the equilibrium will shift to counteract the change. A reduction in the number of products cause the system to respond by making more product, which leads to K>1 and products being more favorable.

If a tablet of acetaminophen, C8H9NO2, weighs 324 mg, how many moles are there in the tablet? If a tablet of acetaminophen, C8H9
Gnoma [55]

Answer:

2.14*10^{-3} mol

Explanation:

number of moles of C8H9NO2 = \frac{mass}{molar mass}=\frac{324*10^{-3} g}{151.163g/mol}=2.14*10^{-3}mol

The trick is to remember to convert milligrams to grams because molar mass is normally presented in grams per mole

maxonik [38]
Since Alai is hitting each with a hammer, the physical property which he must be comparing on the two materials must be hardness. Solubility can be tested when you put them in a solvent. Odor can be tested with smell. Conductivity can be tested with electricity. Hardness can be tested with its resistance to the force that hits it.
