A student has a sample of an insoluble solid and a liquid. The task is to separate the mixture into its pure components. What question is best asked in the design of the experiment to determine how to separate the components?

A) Is the solid/liquid mixture toxic in its combined form?

B) Is the solid large enough to be caught by the pores of a filter?

C) Is the melting temperature of the solid lower than that of the liquid?

D) Can the solid be crushed into smaller particles to allow for distillation?

Assume that two of the electrons at the negative terminal have attached themselves to a nearby neutral atom. there is now a negative ion with a charge -2e at this terminal. what are the electric potential and electric potential energy of the negative ion relative to the electron? the electric potential and the electric potential energy are both twice as much. the electric potential is twice as much and the electric potential energy is the same. the electric potential is the same and the electric potential energy is twice as much. the electric potential and the electric potential energy are both the same. the electric potential is the same and the electric potential energy is increased by the mass ratio of the oxygen ion to the electron. the electric potential is twice as much and the electric potential energy is increased by the mass ratio of the oxygen ion to the electron.
