Question

“A mixture is the chemical bonding of two or more substances in any proportion.” Is this statement true or false? Explain your answer.

Answer 1

The statement is False.

Step-by-step explanation:

A mixture contains two or more elements present in it.

The elements are not in chemical combination with each other.

A compound too contains two or more elements but they are in chemical combination.

For example NaCl is a compound which contains 1 part of Sodium and 1 part of Chlorine.

`H_2 O` is a compound 2g of hydrogen is chemically combined with 16g of Oxygen.

Chemical bonding is the attractive forces which holds the atoms together in a molecule.

NaCl - the attractive force is called as Ionic bond.

`H_2 O` - the bond present is a covalent bond

A mixture has two or more elements but there is no chemical bonding present in it. The components of a mixture can be easily separated from it.

Answer 2

False

Step-by-step explanation:

''A mixture is the chemical bonding of two or more substances in any proportion'' is false statement because a mixture don't include bonding of chemical substances.

Mixtures in chemistry are including blending of substances and we have two tipes of mixture:

1. Heterogeneous
2. Homogeneous

Some of the chemical mixtures are: mixture of water and sand, mixture of sand and iron filings and more...

If we are talking about bonding in chemistry there are Covalent bonds and Ionic bonds.
