Answer to Problem 53UTC

Solution:

  1. it is a compound
  2. it is a mixture
  3. it is an element

Explanation of Solution

  • A pure substance that can be separated into other smaller substances by any means that is by chemical or physical is said to be a compound. When the bonded atoms are same then the substance is said to be a molecule whereas when the joined atoms are different then they are said to be compound.
  • a. It consists of 2 different types of atom. Thus, it is a compound.

  • A material made up of two or more different substances which are not combined chemically is said to be a mixture.
  • b. It consists of different atom and compound. Thus, it is a mixture.

  • A substance that is made up of completely one type of atom is said to be an element.
  • c. Same atom combines to form an element and it is presented as a single molecule or an atom just like H atom.

Conclusion
  1. compound
  2. mixture
  3. element
