Is diamond a compound, element or mixture? and is Sugar (C6H12O6) a compound, element or mixture? is Ammonia (NH3) a compound, element or mixture? is ink an element compound or mixture? it would really help if you gave the answer...I will mark you as brainiest?
Answers
a) It is neither an element nor a compound. A diamond is composed of Carbon, which is an element. When Carbon clumps together in a patternless shaped form, and then pressure is applied, a diamond is formed.
b) Glucose (C6H12O6) is an organic compound composed of the elements carbon, hydrogen and oxygen. It is a pure substance, not a mixture. In glucose, the elements carbon, hydrogen and oxygen are combined in a fixed ratio of 6 : 1 : 8 by mass, unlike in mixtures.
c) Ammonia, NH3, is a chemical compound composed of one nitrogen atom and three hydrogen atoms. Ammonia is a colorless gas that is lighter than air, and can be easily liquefied. Ammonia is a compound normally encountered as a gas and has a strong odor.
d) Ink is a mixture as it is made of many different substances.
