PLEASE HELP
Susana heats up a sample of red crystals. While the sample is being heated, a gas is released and a blue powder is left after the heating. Is the sample of red crystals an element or a compound? Explain your answer.

Sagot :


Because more than one substance was released (following a color change signifying a chemical reaction), the sample was indeed, a compound.

Sample response: Susana's red crystal sample is a compound because it was broken down into a gas and blue powder. It is not an element because elements cannot be broken down into simpler substances by ordinary means, such as heating.

This is late but if anyone needs it here you go.
