Hi there! I had the same question on my test as well!
The correct answer is (A) Homogeneous mixture!
I hope I helped you, and I am 100% this is the right answer!
Answer:
- <em>The element that makes up all organic compounds </em><u>is carbon (C)</u>
Explanation:
The term organic matter refers to the matter in the living organisms. Nowadays, organic compounds, the object of organic chemistry, are the compounds that contain carbon except carbon oxides, carbides and carbonates (which are considered inorganic compounds).
Organic compounds form a vast variety of vital compounds based on the versatility of carbon atoms.
Carbon atoms have four valence electrons which can form a variety of single, double, and triple bonds with it self, to form long chains.
Carbon atoms can also form bonds with other elements like, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, halogens, among others, to form different kind of compounds: alkanes, alkenes, alkynes, alcohols, aldehydes, esters, eters, amines, amides, polymers, among others.
Thus, organic compounds form a vast subject of study based on the special chemical properties of carbon.
So first you work out the ratio. The formula tells us that for every one 'amount' of Ca and Cthere will be 3x the amount of oxygen. So, the ratio is 1:1:3, (=5) therefore 70g divided by 5 = 14.
If 70g of CaCO3 is heated there will be (1x14) 14g Ca, (1x14) 14g C and (3x14) 42g of O.
Weight of CaO= 42+14, 56g
(I hope this is right! Good luck xx)
Hello!
<span>Carbonic acid is referred to as volatile acid because it is produced from a gas that evaporates quickly.
Volatility is the likeliness of a substance to vaporize. That is the tendency of the substance to pass to the gaseous phase. That means that these substances have a high vapor pressure. Coming from a gas, Carbonic Acid has a high tendency to pass to the vapor phase.
Have a nice day!</span>
