Which set is an example of an element, a compound, and a mixture?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Nitella [24]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Element: Sulfur ; S

Compound: Water ; H2O

Mixture: Gunpowder ; 2 KNO3 + S + 3 C -> K2S + N2 + 3 CO2

Explanation:

An element is a pure substance that cannot be broken down into simpler substances. A periodic table for example has elements.

A compound is a chemical substance that's made of multiple elements held together by chemical bonds. All elements from the periodic table can be combined to make a compound but they have to bond a specific way in order for them to actually make something. Water is the easiest to remember.

A mixture is two or more substances that are physically combined. They are not chemically combined though. There are a few types of mixtures including homogeneous, heterogeneous, etc. Gunpowder is actually a mixture. It contains sulfur, carbon and potassium nitrate.

Don't be afraid to reach out with further questions, I hope this helps!

Base your answer on the diagram below and on your knowledge of Earth Science. The diagram represents a cutaway view of a flat-pl
algol13

Answer:

Explanation:

A solar collector is a device that absords Sun's heat energy to heat air or water. It is majorly used for heating purpose, and do not generate electricity directly.

The flow tubes and collector plate are black in color so as to increase the intensity of heat generated by the collector. A black body is a good absorber of heat, it absorbs most heat directed to the collector. Also, a black body is a good radiator of heat, the heat absorbed is rediated to the appropriate channels for the heating of water or air molecules. The black color increases the efficeincy and percentage of solar energy absorbed by the collector.

If a reflective color is used (e.g white), major percentage of the incident heat would be reflected. This would decrease the efficiency of the solar collector.

Molar mass (CaCl2) = 40.1 +2*35.5 = 111.1 g/mol
Molar mass (AlCl3) = 27.0 +3*35.5= 133.5 g/ mol

                                               
3CaCl2+Al2O3 -------->3CaO +2AlCl3
mole from reaction              3 mol                                              2 mol
mass from reaction         3mol* 111.1g/mol                             2 mol*133.5g/mol

mass from problem              45.7 g                                               x g

Proportion:
  333.3 g  CaCl2  -------   267.0 g AlCl3
  45.7 g   CaCl2   --------   x g    AlCl3

x=45.7*267.0/333.3= 36.6 g AlCl3

Compound X has a molar mass of 316.25 g*mol^-1 and the following composition:
Leokris [45]

Answer:

Compound X has a molar mass of 316.25 g*mol^-1 and the following composition:

element & mass %

phosphorus & 39.18%

sulfur & 60.82%

Write the molecular formula of X.

Explanation:

The given molecule of phosphorus and sulfur has molar mass --- 316.25 g.

Empirical formula calculation:                      

element:              phosphorus                       sulfur

co9mposition:      39.185%                            60.82%

divide with

atomic mass:          39.185/31.0 g/mol           60.82/32.0g/mol

                              =1.26mol                           1.90mol

smallest mole ratio:   1.26mol/1.26mol =1      1.90mol/1.26 mol =1.50

multiply with 2:          2                                         3

Hence, the empirical formula is:

P2S3.

Mass of empirical formula is:

158.0g/mol

Given, molecule has molar mass --- 316.25 g/mol

Hence, the ratio is:

316.25g/mol/158.0 =2

Hence, the molecular formula of the compound is :

2 x (P2S3)

=P_4S_6
