Justify air is a mixture not a compound

Chemistry

First we have to understand their definitions.

Mixture: a substance made by mixing other substances together physically.

Compound: made up or consisting of several parts or elements chemically.

Now that we understand their definitions we can justify and clarify that air is a mixture.

<span>The air is composed of many non-reactive gases such as nitrogen, hydrogen, methane, water vapor, carbon dioxide, etc. It can not be classified as a compound because compound means; several things (elements) compose a whole but chemically, and this previously mentioned gases are attached physically, not chemically.</span>

A compound has to be chemically bonded, however, air is not chemically bonded.
This can be proven by freezing air. By freezing air, it yields different liquids at different temperature. Liquid nitrogen has a different boiling point than liquid oxygen.
If air was a compound, they would all have a single boiling point and a single freezing point.


Hope this helps :)

Select the single best answer. Which mechanism properly shows the movement of electrons in the reaction? 2xsafari
sweet [91]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

We must study the reaction pictured in the question closely before we begin to attempt to answer the question.

Now, the reaction is a free radical reaction. This implies that only one electron is transferred. The transfer of one electron is shown using a half arrow rather than a full arrow. The both species are radicals (odd electron species) and contribute one electron each.

Hence we must show electron movements in both species using a half arrow.

Please help!!!!
Nat2105 [25]

Answer:

When an atom gains or loses energy, the  energy of an electron can change.

An electron in an atom can move from one  energy level to another when the atom gains  or loses energy.

Explanation:

The possible energies that electrons in an atom

can have are called energy levels.

• An electron cannot exist between energy levels.

Consider a mixture of oil and water. What terms would you use to describe this mixture? Check all that apply. Heterogeneous homo
GenaCL600 [577]

A mixture of oil and water is:

Heterogeneous

immiscible

<h3>What type of mixture of oil and water is?</h3>

The water molecules attract each other, and the oil molecules stick together. That causes oil and water to form two separate layers. Water molecules pack closer together, so they sink to the bottom, leaving oil sitting on top of the water. The mixture can be called as Emulsion. It is an immiscible liquid and the mixture is heterogeneous as oil floats on top of water surface but do not mix with it.

Thus, correct options are Heterogeneous and immiscible.

add charges, single electron dots, and/or pairs of dots as appropriate to show the lewis symbols for the most stable ion of each
Alja [10]

As - 8 dots and 3- charge, Se - 8 dots and 2- charge, Br - 8 dots and 1-, K - zero dots and +1 charge, Ca - zero dots and +2 charge, Ga - zero dots and +3 charge.

<h3>In the periodic table of the elements, what is its Lewis symbol?</h3>

The valence electrons of each element are represented by dots that surround their chemical symbol in a Lewis dot symbol. The Lewis dot symbol's dots correspond to the valence electrons, which correspond to the final digit of the element's group number as in periodic table.

<h3>What's an example of a Lewis symbol?</h3>

Two chlorine atoms, for instance, share one pair of electrons when they combine to form a chlorine molecule. According to the Lewis structure, each Cl atom contains one shared pair of electrons and pairs of electrons that aren't employed in bonds (known as lone pairs) (written between the atoms).
