Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
Water is a mixture or pure substance has to be identified and explained.
Concept introduction:
Mixture:
A mixture always contains two or more substances that can be present in varying amounts. The components of a mixture do not lose their identities and may be separated by physical means. There are two types of mixture,
- Homogeneous mixture
- Heterogeneous mixture
Homogeneous mixture:
Homogenous mixture consist of a single phase be it liquid, gas, or solid the chemical composition is the same for any sample of the mixture.
Heterogeneous mixture:
Heterogeneous mixture consist of different phase are not uniform they will not have an identical composition
Pure substance:
A pure substance (element or compound) always has a definite composition by mass. The elements in the compounds lose their identities and may be separated only by chemical means.
(b)
Interpretation:
Chicken stock is a mixture or pure substance has to be identified and explained.
Concept introduction:

- Q5: Label each chiral carbon in the following molecules as R or S. Make sure the stereocenter to which each of your R/S assignments belong is perfectly clear to the grader. (8pts) R OCH 3 CI H S 2pts for each R/S HO R H !!! I OH CI HN CI R Harrow_forwardCalculate the proton and carbon chemical shifts for this structurearrow_forwardA. B. b. Now consider the two bicyclic molecules A. and B. Note that A. is a dianion and B. is a neutral molecule. One of these molecules is a highly reactive compound first characterized in frozen noble gas matrices, that self-reacts rapidly at temperatures above liquid nitrogen temperature. The other compound was isolated at room temperature in the early 1960s, and is a stable ligand used in organometallic chemistry. Which molecule is the more stable molecule, and why?arrow_forward
