The material in form of mixtures.
Answer to Problem 1RCQ
Solution:
The material is considered to be mixture if it contains two or more substances in its composition where each substance is to have its own chemical properties.
Explanation of Solution
Mixtures: It is generally defined as the substance that consists of two or more substances in the composition which each substance continue to have its own chemical properties.
Combination of sand and sugar results to form the mixture in which each substance continue to retain its own properties.
The mixture is classified as homogeneous and heterogeneous mixtures in which homogeneous contains same type of substance throughout the composition and the heterogeneous is type which contains different components as individual substances.
Examining the composition of any material clearly says that whether it is considered to be mixture or not.
According to the definition of mixture any material is regarded as mixture if it has more than one substance with it in the chemical composition.
Determining a material to be a mixture or not is simple task and it is done by going through the chemical composition of the material. Any substance that has same that is single type of atom or molecules in its composition is considered to be pure. Any substances other than pure are considered to be mixture since they have two or more mixed substances or compounds with it.
Conclusion
The definition for any material to be considered as mixture is defined by using the chemical composition of the material

- 1. In Section 4.1 in the description of matter, the following terms were introduced: elements, atoms, electrons, protons, neutrons, nucleus, molecules, mixtures, and solutions. Create a concept map explaining the composition of matter by appropriately organizing and linking these concepts to form meaningful propositions. After completing your concept map, compare your map with that of a classmate or the instructor. Are they same? Should they be? Discuss the similarities and differences that you find between the maps.arrow_forwardA volumetric flask made of Pyrex is calibrated at 20.0C. It is filled to the 100-mL mark with 35.0C acetone. After the flask is filled, the acetone cools and the flask warms so that the combination of acetone and flask reaches a uniform temperature of 32.0C. The combination is then cooled back to 20.0C. (a) What is the volume of the acetone when it cools to 20.0C? (b) At the temperature of 32.0C, does the level of acetone lie above or below the 100-mL mark on the flask?
