Question

1. true or false: a jar of both carbon monoxide (co) and carbon dioxide (co₂) is an example of a mixture.

a. true
b. false

Explanation:

A mixture is a combination of two or more substances that retain their individual chemical identities. Carbon monoxide (CO) and carbon dioxide (CO₂) are two distinct compounds. When they are in the same jar, they do not chemically react with each other under normal conditions (assuming no external factors like high - temperature or catalyst to initiate a reaction). So, they exist as a physical combination, which is the definition of a mixture.

Answer:

A. True
