Answer:

B. Rust is a compound made of two elements.

Explanation:

A substance is a form of matter which has a constant composition and distinct properties. Depending on whether they can be separated by chemical means or not, they can be compounds or elements, respectively.

The problem tells us that a sample of <u>rust, after a chemical reaction with acid, is separated into two simpler substances</u> W and Z. Therefore, <u>the rust is a compound.</u>

After obtaining W and Z, these substances can not be broken down into simpler substances. Therefore, <u>these substances are elements.</u>

Rust is a compound made of two elements, iron and oxygen.

Can some please answer these two questions?
alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

1. Mass of potassium (K) = 203.32 g

2. Number of mole of As = 7.53 moles

Explanation:

1. Determination of the mass of potassium (K)

Molar mass of K = 39.1 g/mol

Number of mole of K = 5.2 moles

Mass of K =.?

Mole = mass / Molar mass

5.2 = mass of K / 39.1

Cross multiply

Mass of K = 5.2 × 39.1

Mass of potassium (K) = 203.32 g

2. Determination of the number of mole of Arsenic (As)

Molar mass of As = 74.92 g/mol

Mass of As = 563.9 g

Number of mole of As =.?

Mole = mass /Molar mass

Number of mole of As = 563.9 / 74.92

Number of mole of As = 7.53 moles
