Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The formula of compound in which the combining ratios are as follows:
Sodium: hydrogen: carbon: oxygen, 1:1:1:3.
Concept Introduction:
The substance having similar atom is called an element. When two or more elements combined together chemically they form a pure substance called a compound. But in case of mixture, it is formed when two substances joined together without any
(b)
Interpretation:
The formula of compound in which the combining ratios are as follows:
Carbon: hydrogen: oxygen, 2:6:1.
Concept Introduction:
The substance having similar atom is called an element. When two or more elements combined together chemically they form a pure substance called a compound. But in case of mixture, it is formed when two substances joined together without any chemical bonding. Example of compound is H2 O, and example of element is N, example of mixture is mixture of sand and sugar.
(c)
Interpretation:
The formula of compound in which the combining ratios are as follows:
Potassium: manganese: Oxygen, 1:1:4.
