Chapter 10.3, Problem 10.3.1PE
A solid white substance A is heated strongly in the absence of air It decomposes to form a new white substance B and a gas C The gas has exactly the same properties as the product obtained when carbon is burned in an excess of oxygen Based on these observations, can vie determine whether solids A and B and gas C are elements or compounds?
