(a)
Interpretation:
The number of components for the given system is to be determined.
Concept introduction:
Component of a system is the chemical substance which has specific properties. When a single component system is considered, it is chemically homogeneous but a multicomponent system is always chemically inhomogeneous as in multicomponent system, more than one component is present.

Answer to Problem 6.1E
Bronze, an alloy of copper and tin is a two component system.
Explanation of Solution
Two component systems contain at least two different components in the system. Bronze is an alloy of copper and tin. It has two components present in it which are tin and copper. Both of them have definite properties and therefore they are independent from each other. Thus, the alloy of tin and copper is a two component system.
Bronze, an alloy of copper and tin is a two component system.

Answer to Problem 6.1E
Wood’s metal, an alloy of bismuth, lead, tin, and cadmium is a four component system.
Explanation of Solution
Wood’s metal is an alloy of bismuth, lead, tin, and cadmium. It has four components in it that is bismuth, lead, tin, and cadmium. Each component of the given system has definite properties and therefore they are independent from each other. Thus, the alloy of wood’s metal is an example of four component system.
Wood’s metal, an alloy of bismuth, lead, tin, and cadmium is a four component system.

Answer to Problem 6.1E
Vodka, a mixture of water and ethyl alcohol is a two component system.
Explanation of Solution
Vodka is a mixture which is made by mixing water and ethyl alcohol. It has two components in it that is water and ethyl alcohol. Each of them has definite properties and therefore the system exhibits the property of both the components. Moreover, both the components of the given system are independent to each other. Thus, the mixture of vodka is an example of two component systems.
Vodka, a mixture of water and ethyl alcohol is a two component system.

Answer to Problem 6.1E
A mixture of sand and sugar is a two component system.
Explanation of Solution
A mixture of sand and sugar has two components that is sand and sugar. Each of them has definite properties which are exhibited by the system in a combined form. Thus, the mixture of sand and sugar has difference in the properties of its components. Moreover, the components are independent to each other which make it a two component system.
A mixture of sand and sugar is a two component system.

(Note: it's not equal to the difference in chemical shifts.) Round your answer to 2 significant digits, and be sure it has an appropriate unit symbol. = O O a will shift left, c will shift right. O a will shift right, c will shift left. a and c will both shift left, with more space between them. Suppose a new spectrum is taken with a 500 MHz spectrometer. What will be true about this new spectrum? O a and c will both shift left, with less space between them. O a and c will both shift right, with more space between them.
