Oxygen (O₂) is an element, a pure substance. Milk is a colloid; brass is an alloy (mixture); sea water is a solution (mixture). Pure substances have fixed composition.
Explanation:
Graham's law of diffusion/effusion states that the rate of diffusion of a gas is inversely proportional to the square root of its molar mass. Lighter gases diffuse faster. This law helps in separating isotopes (e.g., ²³⁵U enrichment) and understanding gas behavior. Boyle's and Charles' deal with P-V-T relationships. Avogadro's deals with V and number of moles.
Explanation:
BF3 has a trigonal planar geometry with bond angles of 120 degrees. The three B-F bond dipoles are equal in magnitude and symmetrically arranged, so their vector sum cancels out completely, resulting in a net dipole moment of zero. H2S is bent, NF3 is pyramidal, and ClF3 is T-shaped.
