Hi there.
00:03
In this question, we want to classify the substance we're seeing here.
00:07
Well, what we see are several particles that have two of the same spheres connected.
00:19
Okay, so let's start first with the idea of a mixture.
00:24
A mixture is a physical combination of two or more different substances.
00:49
So, as we look at this, we don't see two or more different substances.
00:55
Substances.
00:56
We just see one thing.
00:58
We see one substance.
01:01
All right.
01:02
So that means it cannot be a mixture.
01:03
So we can eliminate heterogeneous mixture and homogeneous mixture.
01:08
This is not a mixture.
01:10
So that leaves element and compound.
01:12
An element is a substance composed of one type of atom, whereas a compound is going to be two or more different atoms chemically bonded...
