Answer: Compound

Explanation:

Element is a pure substance which is composed of atoms of similar elements.It can not be decomposed into simpler constituents using chemical reactions.Example: Copper Cu

Compound is a pure substance which is made from atoms of different elements combined together in a fixed ratio by mass.It can be decomposed into simpler constituents using chemical reactions. Example: water H_2O

2H_2O\rightarrow 2H_2+O_2

Thus as it give that  the red sample on being heated, a gas is released and a blue powder is left after the heating. Thus the given sample is a compound.

Answer:

SAMPLE RESPONSE -

Susana's red crystal sample is a compound because it was broken down into a gas and blue powder. It is not an element because elements cannot be broken down into simpler substances by ordinary means, such as heating.

The black, granular material that fills a dry cell in a common flashlight (between the carbon rod and the zinc shell) is mangane
mestny [16]

Answer: c. +4

Explanation:

For formation of a neutral ionic compound, the charges on cation and anion must be balanced. The cation is formed by loss of electrons by metals and anions are formed by gain of electrons by non metals.  

Mn:25:1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^64s^23d^{5}

Mn^{4+}:21:1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^63d^1

O:8:1s^22s^22p^4

O^{2-}:10:1s^22s^22p^6

Here manganese is having an oxidation state of +4 called as  cation and oxygen forms an anion with oxidation state of -2. Thus they combine and their oxidation states are exchanged to give Mn_2O_4 which written in simplest whole number ratios to give neutral MnO_2

The technetium-99 nuclide radioactively decays by beta emission. write a balanced nuclear chemical equation that describes this
nekit [7.7K]
Tc-99m<span> is a </span>metastable  isomer<span> of </span>Tc-99. It finds widespread applications in <span>medical diagnostic procedures.
</span>
Tc-99 is also a radioactive element. It's half-life is 2,11,000 years. Upon radioactive decay, it emits beta particles and gets converted into stable compound Ruthenium-99

This process of radioactive decay is shown below.
99 43Tc    →       99 44Ru     +     0 -1e
                            (stable)           (β particle)

To demonstrate the formation of iron (iii) chloride from iron fillings
Pavel [41]

Iron (iii) chloride is obtained by vapor condensation from the reaction between chlorine gas and iron fillings.

<h3>How can iron (iii) chloride be formed from iron fillings?</h3>

Iron (ii) chloride can be formed from iron fillings in the laboratory as follows:

  • Iron fillings + Cl₂ → FeCl₃

Chlorine gas is introduced into a reaction vessel containing iron fillings and the iron (iii) chloride vapor formed is obtained by condensation.

In conclusion, iron (iii) chloride is formed by the the direct combination of iron fillings and chlorine gas.
