Pure Substance- Element

Explanation:

Pure Substance VS. Mixture:
A pure Substance CANNOT be separated by physical changes, but a Mixture can.

PURE SUBSTANCE: Element VS. Compound:
An Element is one simple atom while a compound is two or more.
Example: Al (Aluminum) is an Element. CaCl (Calcium Chloride) is a compound.
You can split a compound with chemical changes because if you were to take the example, it would be a Calcium atom and a Chlorine atom.
You CANNOT split a single atom (Element) unless you want to make an atomic bomb which takes a lot of energy and you don’t want to destroy the whole world.

MIXTURE: Homogeneous VS. Heterogeneous:

Homo- mixed; cannot differentiate pieces
Hetero- can differentiate pieces
EX: homo- ketchup (can you see the difference in the vinegar and tomato paste? No)
Hetero- chicken noodle soup (there’s broth, chicken, peas, carrots, and other things)

Vladimir79 [104]

Answer: Option A) the total energy of the universe is constant.

Explanation:

The first law of thermodynamics is also known as the law of conservation of mass.

And it states that matter is neither created nor destroyed during a chemical reaction but changes from one form to another.

Thus, the total energy of the universe is constant (neither created nor destroyed).

what do automobile makers mean when they say their cars are more powerful than their competitors' cars

JulijaS [17]

Answer:

High rate of acceleration.

Explanation:

For an automobile power is meant by the power of engine i.e. the amount of energy the engine can deliver in a unit time to the powered-axle of an automobile. Practically it tells about the high throttle of the engine or the acceleration of the engine. This tells that in a very less time duration the car can attain high speed, also called pickup in the fancy term.

Stoichiometry is best defined as the

Oxana [17]

Stoichiometry is “quantitative relationship” among the “reactants” and the “products” in a “chemical reaction”.

<u>Explanation</u>:

In stoichiometry “stoicheion” means element and “metron” means measure in Greek. The stoichiometric calculation depends upon “stoichiometric coefficients” in a “chemical equation” which can be explained as the “number of moles” of each substance (reactants or products). Stoichiometric calculation is done as follows:

For example reaction between nitrogen and hydrogen to form ammonia as

$\mathrm{N}_{2}(\mathrm{g})+3 \mathrm{H}_{2}(\mathrm{g}) \longrightarrow 2 \mathrm{NH}_{3}(\mathrm{g})$

Here stoichiometric coefficients show that “one molecule of nitrogen” reacts with “three molecules of hydrogen” to form “two molecules of ammonia”. Multiplying Avogadro number $6.022 \times 10^{23}$ to no of molecules in equation:
