Students have asked these similar questions
A ______________________is the physical combining of two or more substances (not necessarily elements). The composition may vary, the substances retain their properties, and they may be separated by physical means.
Is it a compound or mixture?
In a common laboratory experiment in general chemistry, students are asked to determine the relative amounts of benzoic acid and charcoal in a solid mixture. Benzoic acid is relatively soluble in hot water, hut charcoal is not. Devise a method for separating the two components of this mixture
i need help to arrange these elementsin a table according to their chemical and physical properties. The goal is to display as many patterns among the properties as possible.
