A pure substance is a substance which cannot be separated physically or chemically. It is the same wherever found on earth. For example, pure gold is a pure substance. It will be the same whether it is found where you live or on another country. A mixture can be either homogeneous or heterogeneous. A homogeneous mixture is a mixture that looks the same throughout but is made of more than one element. An example of this would be salt and water mixture.  A heterogeneous mixture is a mixture in which you can easily identify the different parts which make it up. An example of this would be pizza. Both these mixtures can be broken into different parts either physically or chemically.

Hope it helps :)

A pure substance means its like a natural substance that has not been tampered with, such as sodium. but when sodium is mixed with chlorine it becomes sodium chloride( table salt), which is a mixture. <span />

Which profile best describes the reaction C(s) + 2H2(g) → CH4(g),<br> AH = -74.9 kJ?
katrin [286]

Answer:

Option B. A

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

C(s) + 2H₂ (g) —> CH₄ (g). ΔH = –74.9 kJ

From the reaction above, we can see that the enthalpy change (ΔH) is negative (i.e –74.9 KJ) which implies that the heat content of the reactants is greater than the heat content of the products. Thus, the reaction is exothermic reaction.

For an exothermic reaction, the energy profile diagram is drawn in such a way that the heat content of reactants is higher than the heat content of products because the enthalpy change

(ΔH) is always negative.

Thus, diagram A (i.e option B) gives the correct answer to the question.
