(a)
Interpretation: Carbonated soft drink needs to be identified as mixture or pure substance.
Concept Introduction: Practically all of the matter in environment consists of mixtures of different substance. For example, soil; it has many forms of components, air; it has mixture of many gases, etc.
(a)
Answer to Problem 4RQ
Carbonated soft drink is a mixture.
Explanation of Solution
Substance is made up of the similar types of the atoms. A sample of matter with both definite & constant composition and also distinct chemical properties called a pure substance. A mixture is the combination of similar or dissimilar components. The property of mixture depends on the components present in a mixture.
Carbonated soft drink is usually solutions of various substances dissolved in the water. In Carbonated soft drink, the components can be separated by many different physical methods (filtration, evaporation). Since, the amount of each of these can vary (flavoring, sugar, carbonation, color), it’s a mixture.
(b)
Interpretation: Table salt (sodium chloride) needs to be identified as mixture or pure substance.

(f)
Answer to Problem 4RQ
24-karat goldis a pure substance.
Explanation of Solution
Substance is made up of the similar types of the atoms. A sample of matter with both definite & constant composition and also distinct chemical properties called a pure substance. A mixture is the combination of similar or dissimilar components. The property of mixture depends on the components present in a mixture.
24-karat gold does not contain traces of any other metals. So, 24-karat gold is a pure substance.

- b) Certain cyclic compounds are known to be conformationally similar to carbohydrates, although they are not themselves carbohydrates. One example is Compound C shown below, which could be imagined as adopting four possible conformations. In reality, however, only one of these is particularly stable. Circle the conformation you expect to be the most stable, and provide an explanation to justify your choice. For your explanation to be both convincing and correct, it must contain not only words, but also "cartoon" orbital drawings contrasting the four structures.
