Explanation:
A compound is defined as follows.
- Compounds are pure substance.
- The atoms bonded in a compound are in specific proportion.
- A compound is formed by chemical combination.
- For a compound, melting point and boiling point is defined.
A mixture is defined as follows.
- Mixtures are impure substance.
- The bonded atoms in a mixture are in any proportion.
- A mixture is formed by physical combination.
- For a mixture, melting point and boiling point is not defined.
On changing the amount of one substance will affect the formation of compound as a compound requires atoms to be bonded in a specific proportion. Whereas changing the amount of one substance will not affect the formation of mixtures as atoms can be bonded in any proportion in a mixture.
Answer:
Calcium bromide
Explanation:
When naming compounds, the use of prefixes depend on the type of bond made. In this case, calcium and bromine form a ionic bond because calcium is a metal and bromine is a non-metal.
Ionic bonds are not named using prefixes. So no matter how many atoms there are, you will simply write the name of the element for the first element.
For the second element, you name it as well, but only use the root name and end it with -ide.
I think the most appropriate answer is: the solvent being used in the experiment
<span>To correct for any light absorption not originating from the solute you will need to calibrate the tools with a solution that most similar to the sample.
Blank covete or standard solution can be used, but it was not ideal. By using the solvent as calibration, you can remove the reading from the solvent so your result only comes from the sample.
