Answer:

The statement is considered to be true

Explanation:

The statement is true because when elements chemically combine, there are interactions between their valence electrons, causing the two elements to be bonded together to form what is known as a compound.

Compounds can only be formed from interactions between two or more elements. examples include:

Hydrogen + Oxygen = H2O (water)

Sodium + Chlorine = NaCl

Note that if atoms of the same element combine, what is formed is a molecule, not a compound. Some atoms usually do this to attain stability. examples include = O2 H2 and  N2. They are oxygen molecule, hydrogen molecule, and nitrogen molecule respectively.

Compounds are only formed when different elements combine to attain electronic stability.

15.0 g of Fe and 25.0 g of sand are added to 250.0 g of water. a. Determine the percent mass of Fe, sand, and water in the mixtu
lana [24]

Answer:

A. percentage mass of iron = 5.17%

percentage mass of sand  = 8.62%

percentage mass of water = 86.205%

B. (Iron + sand + water) -------> ( iron + sand) ------> sand

C. The step of separation of iron and sand

Explanation:

A. Percentage mass of the mixtures:

Total mass of mixture = (15.0 + 25.0 + 250.0) g =290.0 g

percentage mass of iron = 15/290 * 100% = 5.17%

percentage mass of sand = 25/290 * 100% = 8.62%

percentage mass of water = 250/290 * 100% = 86.205%

B. Flow chart of separation procedure

(Iron + sand + water) -------> separation by filtration using filter paper and funnel to remove water --------> ( iron + sand) -----------> separation using magnet to remove iron ------> sand

C. The step of separation of iron and sand by magnetization of iron will have the highest amount of error because during the process, some iron particles may not readily be attracted to the magnet as they may have become interlaced in-between sand grains. Also, some sand particle may also be attracted to the magnet as they are are borne on iron particles.
