The correct option is D.

In chemistry, a pure substance refers to a matter that possesses definite and constant composition with unique chemical properties. Another word for a pure substance is chemical substance. A pure substance typically contains only one type of atom or only one type of molecule. Examples of pure substances are water, sodium chloride, gold, silver, etc. In the question given above, we are told that the unknown element can only be broken down by chemical mean, this shows that the unknown compound is a chemical compound.

Answer:

D) Pure Substance

Explanation:

The unknown substance can be classified as a pure substance. This is because every other option given (impure substance, solution, mixture) are all examples of substances where the particles are not chemically bonded together.

If a substance is classified as a pure substance, that means that every atom in its chemical formula is chemically bonded to each other.

Salt water contains n sodium ions (NA ) per cubic meter and n chloride ions (Cl-) per cubic meter. A battery is connected to met
IRINA_888 [86]

Answer: hello your question is incomplete below is the complete question

Salt water contains n sodium ions (Na+) per cubic meter and n chloride ions (Cl−) per cubic meter. A battery is connected to metal rods that dip into a narrow pipe full of salt water. The cross sectional area of the pipe is A. The magnitude of the drift velocity of the sodium ions is VNa​ and the magnitude of the drift velocity of the chloride ions is VCl​.

What is the magnitude of the ammeter reading ?

answer :

| I | = neAVₙₐ  + neAV (Cl-)

Explanation:

Given that there are N sodium ions

<u>Determine the Magnitude of the ammeter reading </u>

| I | = current due to sodium ions + current due to (Cl-) ions

     = neAVₙₐ  + neAV (Cl-)

Help please. 15.0 moles of gas are in a 3.00L tank at 23.4∘C . Calculate the difference in pressure between methane and an ideal
CaHeK987 [17]
Using PV=nRT or the ideal gas equation, we substitute n= 15.0 moles of gas, V= 3.00L, R equal to 0.0821 L atm/ mol K and T= 296.55 K and get P equal to 121.73 atm. The Van der waals equation is (P + n^2a/V^2)*(V-nb) = nRT.  Substituting  a=2.300L2⋅atm/mol2 and b=0.0430 L/mol, P is equal to 97.57 atm. The difference is <span>121.73 atm- 97.57 atm equal to 24.16 atm.</span>
