question 1
which of the following is something chemistry cannot tell us about the world around us?
what someone is thinking
what building blocks of the world are combined to make these items up
if something is a pure substance or a mixture
when items will be solid vs liquid vs gas
Chemistry deals with matter, its properties, composition, and changes (like states of matter, pure substances/mixtures, and building blocks of matter). Thinking is a mental process related to psychology (a social science subfield), not chemistry. The other options relate to chemical concepts: building blocks (elements/compounds), pure substance/mixture (chemical classification), and states of matter (chemical thermodynamics/kinetics). So chemistry can’t tell what someone is thinking.
