Answer:
c. The atoms of one element can be identical to the atoms of another element.
Explanation:
<em>Which of the following is not a statement of Dalton's atomic theory of matter?</em>
<em>a. Elements are made of atoms.</em> TRUE. An atom is the smallest particle of a chemical element that can exist.
<em>b. Atoms of a given element are identical.</em> TRUE. The only slight difference is in the mass of isotopes.
<em>c. The atoms of one element can be identical to the atoms of another element.</em> FALSE. The atoms of different elements are different from one to another.
<em>d. A given compound always has the same number and kinds of atoms. </em>TRUE. This is known as Dalton's law of constant composition.
The enthalpy change for an exothermic reaction is negative because heat is being released, so that takes out two of the responses. Since energy is being released into the surroundings due to the exothermic reaction, the potential energy of the products is lower than that of the reactants. Energy is being put in to make the reaction occur, but then that energy is all being released into the surroundings thus a lower potential energy level for the products
A mixture in which composition is constant throughout the mixture is said to be homogeneous mixture.
Now, oil and vinegar dressing is not considered as a homogeneous mixture because composition is not uniform.
Concrete is made up of three components. Thus, composition is not uniform, so it is not a homogeneous mixture.
A mixture of salt and pepper, when salt is mixed in pepper then the mixture is not uniform as white flecks of salt and black flecks of pepper can be seen in the mixture. Thus, it is not a homogeneous mixture.
Salt water is uniform mixture. Thus, it is a homogeneous mixture.
Thus, salt water is the correct answer.
Sodium is a very reactive metal. It is kept in kerosene to prevent it from coming in contact with oxygen and moisture. If this happens, it will react with the moisture present in air and form sodium hydroxide.
