The answer is <span>B. element.
An element is composed of only one kind of atom and cannot be separated into simpler substances. Oxygen (O) is the element.
A compound is a substance composed </span><span>of two or more <em>different </em>atoms chemically bonded to one another, for example, water (H</span>₂<span>O) consists of 2 atoms of hydrogen (H) and 1 atom of oxygen (O), so it is the compound.
A mixture consists of two or more substances that are not chemically combined. Solutions and colloids are mixtures.</span>
Firstly calculate the grams in the last 8 percent before moving onto the pyrite section.
50.8x0.08=4.064g
We know that iron ore in this case has 92 percent pyrite which contains 46.5 percent iron so we do 50.8x0.92=46.736g from this we need to find 46.5 percent of the iron content in the 92 percent pyrite section then add this answer to the 8 percent of iron ore we found at the start.46.736x0.465=21.73224g
21.73224g+4.064=25.79624g of iron ore 25.8g(3sf)
The correct answer among the choices given is the first option.The teacher most likely is talking about distillation of a mixture. Distillation is a unit operation that separates component substances from a liquid mixture which is shown by the teacher. Also, the most common purifying technique in the production of gasoline is by this process.
