A compound is formed due to the chemical combination or chemical reaction between two or more elements. The elements forming a compound cannot be separated by physical means. The properties of the compound is different from the properties of the elements forming it.
Based on this, the answer would be:
They are different.
Answer:
Explanation:
Hello,
In this case, the undergoing chemical reaction is:
Thus, Kp for this reaction is computed based on the given molar fractions and the total pressure at equilibrium, as shown below:
Now, by using the Van't Hoff equation one computes the equilibrium constant at 298.15K assuming the enthalpy of reaction remains constant:
Finally, the Gibbs free energy for the reaction at 298.15K is:
Best regards.
In order to compounds to be serparated, chemical means are needed. For example, if it you want to separate hydrogen and oxygen in the water ,an electric current should flow through it and that is a kind of chemical means(it is related to the chemical properties of the elements .)
While ,if there is a mixture ,it's components are rather separated easily in physical means. For instance, if you have a salt water, you are able to divide them by using each physical properties. Water is able to turn to a state of gas by evaporating or boiling. Using such properties, you could separate water from salt. Therefore, separating compounds and mixtures are all about the components physical or chemical properties.
So, the answer is a. I hope it will help you^^
