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.

What is the empirical formula for a compound that is 31.9% potassium, 28.9% chlorine, and 39.2% oxygen?
notsponge [240]
The  empirical formula  for a compound   is KClO3

     Explanation 
 
find  the  moles of each  element
moles  = % composition/molar  mass

molar  mass of  of  potassium =39g/mol ,chlorine = 35.5 g/mol, oxygen =16 g/mol

moles  of potassium  =  31.9 / 39 = 0.818  moles
moles of  chlorine    = 28.9/35.5 = 0.814 moles
moles of   oxygen  =  39.2/  16 =  2.45  moles


find the  mole ratio  by  dividing   with  the smallest  mole = 0.814  moles

potassium = 0.818/0.814  =1  
chlorine  =  0.814/0.814 = 1
oxygen =  2.45 /0.814 =3 


the empirical  formula   is therefore = KClO3

Report the number 315.05 to 3 significant figures.
emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

315.

Explanation:

Hello.

In this case, since the given number has five significant figures as the zero is to the right of the first nonzero digit (3), if it is required to report it with three significant figures, it is necessary to "cut" it at the first five without any rounding since the subsequent zero is less than five.

Thus the number turns out:

315

Best regards.
