The answer is 3). This is because elements are the simplest form of a substance, and cannot be broken down any further. Compounds on the other hand are much more complex than elements and can be broken down INTO elements. For example, Na, sodium, is an element and cannot be broken down further. H2O, water, is a compound and can be broken down into Hydrogen and Oxygen.

Answer:

22:

Formular:

atomic \: mass =  \frac{ \sum(isotopic \: mass \times \%abundance)}{100}  \\

substitute:

atomic \: mass =  \frac{(23.985 \times 78.70) + (24.986 \times 10.13) + (25.983 \times 11.17)}{100}  \\  \\  =  \frac{(1887.620) + (253.108) + (290.230)}{100}  \\  \\  =  \frac{2430.958}{100}  \\  \\ { \boxed{ \boxed{average \: atomic \: mass = 24.3 \: amu}}}

Based on the solubility observations, which of the following pairs of cations could be distinguished by the addition of sodium c
Licemer1 [7]

Based on the solubility observations, barium & aluminum could be distinguished by the addition of sodium chloride to the solutions.

<h3>What happens when NaCl is added to a solution?</h3>
  • The ionic link that held sodium and chloride ions together is broken when water molecules force the ions apart.
  • The sodium and chloride atoms are encircled by water molecules after the salt compounds are separated. After that, the salt dissolves and forms a homogenous solution.
  • In order to keep patients from dehydrating, sodium chloride, an important nutrient, is employed in healthcare. It is employed as a spice to improve flavor and as a food preservative. Additionally, sodium chloride is employed in the production of polymers and other goods. Additionally, it is used to de-ice sidewalks and roadways.
  • Adding water to sodium chloride results in a physical change because no new product is created.
