11) Atoms or ions can be blended in any proportion within A) a metal. C) an alloy. 12) Steel is not listed in the periodic table because A) it is a mixture of different elements.

C) twelve 14) When sugar is dissolved in water, the volume of water A) stays the same because the sugar dissolves. B) actually decreases. C) increases because material is being added to it. D) increases initially but then goes back to what it was originally as all of the sugar dissolves. 15) Why is a ruby gemstone considered to be a solution? A) It is a homogeneous mixture of chromium in aluminum oxide. B) The color of ruby is only in the outer surface since a ruby is a heterogeneous mixture.

21) Answer: Most all substances, including the components of air, can be isolated by taking advantage of differences in physical properties. Cool the air down until one of the components (oxygen) liquefies. The two substances are now in a different phase and are easily separated. Alternatively, you might cool air until it is a liquid and then slowly increase the temperature until one of the components (nitrogen) boil away leaving the other component behind.
