Describe two tests that you can run to determine if something is a substance or a mixture.

Chemistry

The difference between a substance and a mixture is that a substance is one of a kind, a material of the same composition throughout, on the contrary, a mixture is one or more different substances brought together and mixed together without changing the nature of each single substance.

One way to test it is to take two substances like sand and table salt. They should each be in granular form and in adequate amount to mix. Neither substance has changed after mixing the two. Even though it may not be easy or convenient to accomplish, each substance could be separated out from the mixture.

When it comes to two substances in lump form, it would not be a mixture when one lump is positioned next to the other lump because there are not enough pieces to combine.

However, there could be a mixture of three substances, like sand, table salt and graphite powder and there could be a mixture with four substances, etc., ad infinitum.

Mixtures are of solid substances in general. On the other hand, one starts referring to solutions when liquids are involved. Gases can be a mixture like for example, air is a mixture with nitrogen, oxygen, argon, etc.

adell [148]

Answer:

I had the same question and I put a total lunar eclipse.

Explanation:

A total lunar eclipse would be less widely visible because, in a partial lunar eclipse the moon only has to partly be in the Earth's shadow.

I don't know if this is helpful or not, but this is what I put if you still needed it.

Alex17521 [72]

The Number of moles required for MTBE is 2 as per molarity based chemistry theories.

  1. A flammable liquid with a distinct, unpleasant smell is called methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE).
  2. Since the 1980s, it has been added to unleaded gasoline as a fuel additive to promote more effective burning.
  3. It is created by mixing chemicals like isobutylene and methanol. Gallstones can be removed with MTBE as well.
  4. In this type of treatment, surgically inserted special tubes are used to deliver MTBE directly to the gall bladders of the patients.
  5. Methyl tert-butyl ether is a colorless liquid with a distinct anesthetic-like smell. Vapors are narcotic and heavier than air. 131 °F boiling point. 18 °F is the flash point.
  6. It is miscible in water and less dense than water. Boosts the octane of gasoline.
  7. Therefore it has 2 moles of oxygen.
