O The crime scene powder is KCI, because it is the only ionic compound choice because KCI contains a metal and a nonmetal and the other 2 compounds do not contain a metal. Only ionic compounds conduct electricity when dissolved in water, so KCI is the crime scene powder. The crime scene powder is C10H8 because it conducts electricity, has a high melting point, and is soluble in water. The crime scene powder is C10H8 or CH8O6 because both of these are covalent compounds because they don't contain a metal. They are soluble in water and not oil because they are polar covalent. Thus, the crime scene powder is one of these two compounds. 58°F Clear 99+ Iyparrow_forward

The reactants in a science fair volcano, baking soda and vinegar, react to form the gas carbon dioxide. Just like with a real volcano, when the gas is formed, it pushes out a bubble mixture that looks similar to a lava flow. Baking soda is a pure substance, sodium bicarbonate. Vinegar is a mixture of acetic acid dissolved in water, and it is only the acetic acid that reacts. Acetic acid and sodium bicarbonate can react together according to the chemical equation below: HC2H302 NaHCOз > NaC2H302 + H20 + CO2 acetic acid + sodium bicarbonate sodium acetate + water + carbon dioxide Samuel wants to help his brother make a science fair volcano. 1.
