Answer: pure substances.
Explanation:
The given substances are:
All what surrounds us, which has mass and occupies spaces, is matter. There are two kind of matter: pure substances and mixtures.
Pure substances have a uniform and constant composition. On the other hand, mixtures are combinations of two or more pure substances in any arbitratry ratio.
Pure substances may be elements or compounds. The elements are the substances conmposed by one only kind of atom. In the list of substances given, Li and O₂ are elements: all the atoms in Li are lithium, and all the atoms in O₂ are oxygen atoms.
Compounds are the chemical combination of two or more different kind of atoms. In the given list H₂O₂ and NaCl are compounds. As you see, H₂O₂ contains atoms of hydrogen and oxygen, chemically bonded, in a fixed ratio (2 atoms of hydrogen by 2 atoms of oxygen). And NaCl has atoms of Na (sodium) and Cl (chlorine), chemicaly bonded, in a fixed ratio (1:1).
There are only 118 known elements and you can find them in any modern periodic table. Therer are virtually infinitely many compounds since many different combinations of the elements can be attained.
Elements and compounds have in common that they are classified as pure substances.
Answer:
c. add coefficients as needed
Explanation:
A chemical equation is defined as the equation that shows changes in a chemical reaction. A chemical equation consist of reactant and product, reactant is at left side of the arrow and product is at right side of the arrow.
Reactant => Product
While balancing a chemical equation, the basic rule is to balance the coefficient as required. Coefficient represents the number of molecules and is used at front of a chemical symbol. Change in coefficient helps balance the number of atoms or molecules of the substances on both the sides of the arrow.
Subscripts are never allowed to change because it can change the chemical involved in the reaction.
Hence, the correct answer is "c. add coefficients as needed".
The pH of salt depends on the component acid and base that comprise them. For example, if the salt is made up of strong acid and weak base then, the salt is acidic. If the salt is formed from strong base and weak acid then, the salt is basic. For this item, NH4Cl is acidic and also Ca(NO3)2 is acidic.
Answer is B, because CaSO3 only has one S
