Answer:

B. How many of each atom are present in the compound

D. the simplified ratio of atoms in relation to each other

Explanation:

In a chemical formula, chemical elements or atoms are represented by a chemical symbol for example Fe for iron and Na for sodium, and the number of each atom is represented by a subscript such as CO2, where 2 is a subscript representing 2 atoms of oxygen.

A subscript represents the number of each atom in the compound and the simplified ratio of atoms in relation to each other. The simplified ratio of atoms in relation to each other means subscript shows the contribution of both the atoms in the compound, for example: N2 + 3H2 => 2NH3, it means the subscript showing the ratio or proportionate of atoms that is 2:2 for both nitrogen and hydrogen.

The subscript is always written below and to the right of the chemical symbol.

Hence, the correct answer is "B. How many of each atom are present in the compound and D. the simplified ratio of atoms in relation to each other"

Difference between fluids and nonfluids
Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

All liquids are fluids but not all fluids are liquids. Fluids basically describe anything that can flow as a result of a difference in pressure between two points. Liquids on the other hand are a subset of fluids. Liquids are the incompressible fluids. These are the fluids who's density does not change sharply with pressure.

Gases are also fluids, they form the compressible fluids. They do flow as a result of difference in pressure between two points but at the same time they can be compressed or expanded. Their density fluctuates with pressure.

Hence fluids consist of 2 mutually exclusive groups of compressible and incompressible fluids. Liquids are the incompressible fluids and hence form a subset of the more general term fluid.
