D. A mixture

If the water is evaporating while the salt remains, it means the two are not chemically bonded and therefore are not a compound.

Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

C )

Explanation:

Controlled scientific experiment tests scientific assumption (hypothesis), under controlled conditions.

In controlled scientific experiment, alters the test variable (independent variable) and observes the effects on the outcome variable (dependent variable).

Eg : Studying impact of sunlight on plant's group, where former independent variable is altered & its effects on dependent outcome variable is observed.

PLEASE HELP!?!.!,! What are the products of the combustion of a hydrocarbon?
Tatiana [17]

Answer:

carbon dioxide and water

Explanation:

Example: Combustion of Methane (CH₄(g))

CH₄(g) + 2O₂(g) => CO₂(g) + 2H₂O(g)**

____________________

Note: The combustion of any hydrocarbon produces CO₂ & H₂O. That is,

Ethane (C₂H₆) + O₂ => CO₂(g) + H₂O(g)

Propane (C₃H₈) + O₂ => CO₂(g) + H₂O(g)

Butane (C₄H₁₀) + O₂ => CO₂(g) + H₂O(g)

The issue remaining is to balance the reaction equation. For these type equation balance Carbon 1st, then Hydrogen and finish with Oxygen. Balancing in this order leaves Oxygen which can be balanced using fractions. If problem requires lowest whole number ratios of elements, simply multiply entire equation by 2 to get standard equation*

______________________

*Standard Equation is defined as the smallest whole number ratios of elements. The 'standard equation' is significant in that it is assumed to be at STP conditions; i.e., 0⁰C (=273K) & 1.0 Atmosphere pressure.

  • Ethane (C₂H₆) + 7/2O₂(g) => 2CO₂(g) + 3H₂O(g)

    => 2C₂H₆ + 7O₂(g) => 4CO₂(g) + 6H₂O(g)  <= Standard Form of Rxn

  • Propane (C₃H₈) + 5O₂(g) => 3CO₂(g) + 4H₂O(g) <= Standard Form of Rxn (no need to balance with the '2' multiple)
  • Butane (C₄H₁₀) + 13/2O₂ => 4CO₂(g) + 5H₂O(g)

    => 2C₃H₈ + 13O₂(g) => 4CO₂(g) + 5H₂O(g) <= Standard Form of Rxn

______________________

**Also, note that water, H₂O(g), is listed as a gas. In some cases it will be listed as a liquid, H₂O(l).

Which of the following is NOT a variable property for a gas?
Alex_Xolod [135]
Mass, air has that. Since what fills up a balloon? A gas
Shape, it has no definite shape. This one is accurate, it has no definite shape, it takes the shape of the object it's in.
Volume, does air take up space? If it does then yep. Balloon example/
Density, yes it does, because it's tightly wounded up.
