\boxed{{\text{Soil}}} is a heterogeneous mixture.

Further Explanation:

Mixtures are composed of two or more substances. No fixed formula is present in these and their composition is also variable. There is retention in the properties of constituent particles even after the formation of mixtures. Some examples of mixtures are smog, mud, sea water and blood.

Types of mixtures:

1. Homogeneous mixtures

“Homo” refers to the “same Homogeneous mixtures are the mixtures that have uniform composition throughout. Such mixtures are present in single phase only. Rain, vinegar and orange juice are examples of a homogenous mixture.

2. Heterogeneous mixtures

Hetero” means “different”. Heterogeneous mixtures are the mixtures that have non-uniform composition throughout. These have more than one phase. Chocolate chip cookies and soda are examples of heterogeneous mixture.

Air is made up of several gases in different amounts. But all of the constituent particles of air are gases so it is a homogeneous mixture.

Salt gets completely dissolved in water and salt water exists in a single phase only. Therefore salt water is a homogeneous mixture.

Steel is an alloy of different metallic components and these components are uniformly distributed throughout the sample of steel. Therefore it is a homogeneous mixture.

Soil consists of a variety of particles such as sand, organic matter, water, pebbles, minerals, and air. All these components have non-uniform composition throughout the whole sample of soil. Therefore it is a heterogeneous mixture.

Answer: Heterogenous mixtures are the ones in which we can see the different components clearly. Air is considered to be homogenous, because we don't see the different noble gases' particles floating around. Salt water is also homogenous, because salt dissolves almost completely into water, becoming hard to see without the proper equipment salt particles in it. Steel is also homogenous, since the metals that compose it are mixed during the heating. The only heterogenous would be soil, because we can see different particles in it, with different sizes, shapes, colors, etc without having to use special equipment.

F(x)=-1/x
g(x)=√(3x-9)

Domain of (f/g)(x):  ??

1We find out the domain of f(x):
f(x) is a rational function, therefore can take real values if the denominator is not ("0"), therefore the domain of f, will be all values excpet "0"
Domain of  f: (-∞,0)U(0,+∞); 


                                                          o
----------------------------------------------O-------------------------------------------
←-------- -∞                                                               +∞           ----------→


g(x) is a radical square root  function, therefore the radicand have to be greater than o equal to "0"
3x-9≥0
3x≥9
x≥3

                                                         3
.........................................................Ф--------------------------------
←--------- - ∞                                                        +∞ -----------→
          
(f/g)(x) = (-1/x) / (√(3x-9)) is a rational function with a square root in the denominator,also the square root don´t take the value of "0";
Therefore:
3x-9>0
3x>9
x>3

The domain of the function (f/g)(x) only can take the values found in all three domains at once.

Consider the oxidation of sodium metal to sodium oxide described by the balanced equation:
mixas84 [53]

Answer:

1116 g.

Explanation:

The balanced equation for the reaction is given below:

4Na + O₂ —> 2Na₂O

From the balanced equation above,

1 mole of O₂ reacted to produce 2 moles of Na₂O.

Next, we shall determine the theoretical yield of Na₂O. This can be obtained as follow:

From the balanced equation above,

1 mole of O₂ reacted to produce 2 moles of Na₂O.

Therefore, 9 moles of O₂ will react to produce = 9 × 2 = 18 moles of Na₂O.

Finally, we shall determine the mass in 18 moles of Na₂O. This can be obtained as follow:

Mole of Na₂O = 18 moles

Molar mass of Na₂O = (23×2) + 16

= 46 + 16

= 62 g/mol

Mass of Na₂O =?

Mass = mole × molar mass

Mass of Na₂O = 18 × 62

Mass of Na₂O = 1116 g

Thus, the theoretical yield of Na₂O is 1116 g.

How many oxygen (O) atoms are involved in this chemical reaction?<br><br> 2Fe(OH)3 — Fe2O3 + 3H20
kenny6666 [7]

Answer:

6 oxygen atoms

Explanation:

From the equation,

2Fe(OH)₃ → Fe₂O₃ + 3H₂O

From the reactant (left hand side) we have 2 moles of Fe(OH)₃ having (2 * 3 = 6) atoms of oxygen and decomposed to give Fe₂O₃ which contains 3 atoms of oxygen and 3 moles of water that also contains 3 atoms of oxygen.

Since the number of oxygen participating in the reaction is independent on the product (not a reversible reaction) then the total number of oxygen atoms participating in the reaction is 6
