Why is air considered a mixture not a compound?

Chemistry
1 answer:
blondinia [14]3 years ago

<span>The best reason I can think of for why we believe that air is a mixture is that freezing air slowly yields different liquids at different temperatures. Liquid nitrogen has a different boiling point than liquid oxygen. They also freeze at different temperatures. If air were only 1 compound, then air in its entirety would have a single boiling point and a single freezing point. </span>

Rus_ich [418]

Answer:

The quantity of ascorbic acid found in sweet lime of 49.6 mg does not meet the daily requirement.

Explanation:

To determine the mass of ascorbic acid knowing the number of moles we use the following formula:

number of moles = mass / molecular weight

mass = number of moles × molecular weight

mass of ascorbic acid = 2.82 × 10⁻⁴ × 176

mass of ascorbic acid = 496 × 10⁻⁴ g = 0.0496 g = 49.6 mg

daily requirement of ascorbic acid = 70 - 90 mg

The quantity of ascorbic acid found in sweet lime of 49.6 mg does not meet the daily requirement.
