(a)
Interpretation: Whether iron is an element, compound, or mixture needs to be identified.
Concept Introduction: An element is a substance that cannot be decomposed further into simpler substances by any chemical process. On the other hand, compounds are composed of two or more elements. They can be decomposed into their elemental components. A mixture in solid, liquid, or gaseous form is said to be homogenous if it has the same proportions of components throughout the sample. Thus, in any homogenous mixture, only one phase of matter is observed. In heterogeneous mixtures, the components of the mixture can be easily identified. There is more than one phase and can be seen by the naked eye. It has a non-uniform composition.

(c)

Answer to Problem 75A
Mixture (homogeneous).
Explanation of Solution
Laundry detergent is composed of more than one compound. It includes sodium carbonate, sodium silicate, sodium perborate, and other phosphates thus, it is neither an element nor a compound. It is considered a mixture. Since the composition of laundry detergent is uniform throughout, it is a homogenous mixture.

(d)

Answer to Problem 75A
Element.
Explanation of Solution
The given substance is sulfur. It is an element because it is made up of only one type of atom. Its atomic number is 16 and its atomic mass is 32.0 amu. It is a non-metal and belongs to group 16 in the periodic table.
Therefore, sulfur is an element.

Answer to Problem 75A
Compound.
Explanation of Solution
Sodium fluoride has the formula NaF. It is a compound containing Na and F atoms. Here, Na is metal and F is a non-metal. The compound is formed by the transfer of electron from Na to F atoms. Here, Na and F are combined in a fixed ratio of 1:1. Since it is composed of more than one type of element, it is a compound.
