Answer: X is a Solid; Y is a Gas
Explanation:
There are three (3) states of matter. They are: Solid, Liquid and Gases.
Substance X and Y, belong to the states of matter.
A Solid is a substance that retains its SIZE and SHAPE without need of a container (as opposed to a liquid or gas).
Thus, it will most likely be concluded that: substance X is a Solid; while Y is a Gas
Really? Really!?

Answer:
gold wire (Au)
Explanation:
A substance that cannot be separated or broken down into simpler substances by chemical means is an element.
Between the given options only gold wire is an element, Au.
A way of knowing that it is an element is noticing that its formula is a single symbol which corresponds to an element found in the periodic table, unlike a combination of said symbols (like NaCl or H₂O).
Answer:
pH = 10.38
Explanation:
∴ molar mass C9H13N = 135.21 g/mol
∴ pKb = - log Kb = 4.2
⇒ Kb = 6.309 E-5 = [OH-][C9H20O3N+] / [C9H13N]
∴ <em>C</em> sln = (205 mg/L )*(g/1000 mg)*(mol/135.21 g) = 1.516 E-3 M
mass balance:
⇒ <em>C</em> sln = 1.516 E-3 = [C9H20O3N+] + [C9H13N]......(1)
charge balance:
⇒ [C9H20O3N+] + [H3O+] = [OH-]; [H3O+] is neglected, come from water
⇒ [C9H20O3N+] = [OH-].......(2)
(2) in (1):
⇒ [C9H13N] = 1.516 E-3 - [OH-]
replacing in Kb:
⇒ Kb = 6.3096 E-5 = [OH-]² / (1.516 E-3 - [OH-])
⇒ [OH-]² + 6.3096 E-5[OH] - 7.26613 E-8 = 0
⇒ [OH-] = 2.3985 E-4 M
∴ pOH = - Log [OH-]
⇒ pOH = 3.62
⇒ pH = 14 - pOH = 14 - 3.62 = 10.38
