You can tell that the atom is in the excited state because:
- Electron configuration should follow the 2-8-8-2 rule, meaning that the inner shell should be filled before the next shell can start holding electrons.
- Instead of the atom's electron configuration being in the ground state at 2-8-8-1, electrons from the second shell have jumped to the third.
Explanation:
There are two aspects of a reaction:
Thermodynamics:
Combustion of the compound is reaction with oxygen.
The carbohydrates contain more content of oxygen as compared to fats.
Hence, carbohydrates have lot of oxygen content which are already partially oxidized as compared to fats. Hence, combustion of the carbohydrates is a faster process.
Kinetics:
The molecular reacts also shows that the combustion of the carbohydrates is a faster process.
A mixture can be separated. Everything in a mixture keeps it's own properties and are not chemically joined together. I am not completely sure about the compound. Although with the cake example, the ingredients have been mixed and kind of "fused" together upon baking. Hope this helps a little. (P.S. trail mix is a good example of a mixture.)
most metals conduct electricity and are very dull to the look. most metals are toxic if eaten and are hard.
aluminum is a type of metal they is softer than the opther and conducts eletricty like a boss.
nickel on the opther hand is also a metal but does not conduct a lot of electricy.
metals can be bent and others can break,
Blood.
<span>Blood is heterogeneous because it has corpuscles (blood cells and platelets) physically suspended in blood plasma. Blood plasma and the corpuscles have different properties and can be separated by methods such as centrifugation. Also, blood is considered a colloid suspension because it has the properties of both a colloid and a suspension. This is because the blood plasma acts as a colloid. More so, if blood was left to settle,then the blood cells would collect at the bottom hence taking the characteristic of a suspension. </span>
<span>Salad dressing.</span>
<span>Depending on the type of salad, it can either be a heterogeneous or homogeneous mixture. If the salad dressing is only of vinegar or any other oil, then it is a homogenous mixture. However, if it involves a mixture of vinegar and other oils, pepper, herbs, and etcetera, then it is a heterogeneous mixture</span>
