Why are elements and compounds classified as pure substances?

1 answer:

3 0

Pure substances contain a single type of chemical species, either element or compound. Elements cannot be further broken into simpler units by chemical methods. If we consider a sample of elements, it has a single type of atoms present in it. A compound has one or more atoms bound together chemically. Compounds can be broken down into simpler units by chemical means. When we consider a sample of a single compound say water, it has all the pure water molecules. Hence, elements and compounds are pure substances.

If 4.0 g of helium gas occupies a volume of 22.4 L at 0 o C and a pressure of 1.0 atm, what volume does 3.0 g of He occupy under

WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

the volume occupied by 3.0 g of the gas is 16.8 L.

Explanation:

Given;

initial reacting mass of the helium gas, m₁ = 4.0 g

volume occupied by the helium gas, V = 22.4 L

pressure of the gas, P = 1 .0 atm

temperature of the gas, T = 0⁰C = 273 K

atomic mass of helium gas, M = 4.0 g/mol

initial number of moles of the gas is calculated as follows;

$n_1 = \frac{m_1}{M} \\\\n_1 = \frac{4}{4} = 1$

The number of moles of the gas when the reacting mass is 3.0 g;

m₂ = 3.0 g

$n_2 = \frac{m_2}{M} \\\\n_2 = \frac{3}{4} \\\\n_2 = 0.75 \ mol$

The volume of the gas at 0.75 mol is determined using ideal gas law;

PV = nRT

$PV = nRT\\\\\frac{V}{n} = \frac{RT}{P} \\\\since, \ \frac{RT}{P} \ is \ constant,\ then;\\\frac{V_1}{n_1} = \frac{V_2}{n_2} \\\\V_2 = \frac{V_1n_2}{n_1} \\\\V_2 = \frac{22.4 \times 0.75}{1} \\\\V_2 = 16.8 \ L$

Therefore, the volume occupied by 3.0 g of the gas is 16.8 L.

A composition of reflections over parallel lines is the same as a __________.

8090 [49]

Answer : Option A) Translation

Explanation : A composition of reflections over parallel lines is the same as a <u>Translation.</u>

To identify if the composition of reflections over parallel lines are same as translation or not?

We can check using a picture of some shape in the plane. Place the picture on the right side of two vertical parallel. Now, we can see the reflected the shape over the nearest parallel line, then check the reflection over the other parallel line. We see that the shape winds up in the same orientation, like it was just shifted over to the right. Hence, it is translation.
