Answer:

Synthesis reaction

Explanation:

To know which option is correct, it important that we know what each option represents.

Synthesis reaction is a reaction in which two different elements react to form a single compound. For example

X + Y —> XY

Decomposition reaction is a reaction in which a compound splits into two or more simpler substance. For example

XY —> X + Y

Single Replacement reaction is a reaction in which one element replaces or displaces another element from a compound. For example

X + YZ —> XZ + Y

Double Replacement reaction is a reaction in which the parts of two ionic compounds exchange their ions to form a new compound. For example

WX + YZ —> WZ + YX

Now, considering the equation given above i.e

P + O₂ —> P₄O₁₀

We can see that P and O₂ reacted to produce a new compound (i.e P₄O₁₀).

Thus, the reaction is a synthesis reaction because two different elements (i.e P and O₂) reacted to form a single compound (i.e P₄O₁₀).

A scientist finds that a sample of matter contains three types of atoms. The sample can be any of the following, except:
GrogVix [38]

Answer:

The correct answer is C. element

Explanation:

The sample cannot be an element because an element - or <em>elemental substance</em> - cannot be decomposed into simpler substances. Thus, it cannot be composed by differents types of atoms. For example, an element is carbon (C).

As the sample contains <u>three types of atoms</u>, it can be a compound, a molecule or a mixture, because they can be composed by different types of atoms - of different chemical elements. For example, the sample could contain the element carbon (C) combined with other elements, for example oxygen (O) or hydrogen (H), amoing others.

Mole Conversion: How many molecules are there in 6.70 moles of methane, CH4 ​
raketka [301]

Answer:

Explanation:

1 mol of methane = 6.02 * 10^23 molecules

6.70 mol of methane = x

Cross multiply

x = 6.70 * 6.02 * 10^23

x = 4.033 * 10^23 molecules.
