Question

A chemist analyzes two samples. One sample contains 14g of element x and 6.0 g of element y. The second sample contains 28 g of element x and samples are the same substance

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

Here's the complete question:

A chemist analyzes two samples.One sample contains 14g of element x and 6.0g of element y.The second sample contains 28g of element x and 6.0g of element y. Does it appear that the two samples are the same substance?

The two samples that we are given in the question are different. They are not the same thing because we can deduce that their components ratio are different.

Sample One contains 14g of element x and 6.0g of element y. The ratio of element x to y is 14/6 = 7/3 = 7:3.

Sample Two contains 28g of element x and 6.0g of element y. The ratio of element x to y is 28/6 = 14/3 = 14:3.

Therefore, they have different ratio for their components and are therefore not thesame.
