Table salt has the chemical formula NaCl. Table sugar has the chemical formula C12H22O11. Which of the following is true? (1 point)
Both compounds are held together by chemical bonds.
Both compounds have the same density.
Both compounds react with water.
Both compounds contain the element carbon.*
Correct me if I'm wrong!!
Na = sodium
Cl = chlorine
no C in there
The answer is NaCl is Table Salt, why would you say its doesn't have a C? It's a chemical compound.
Lakota, "Cl" in Chemistry is Chlorine while while only "C" is Carbon.
Cl is not the same as C. They represent different elements.
:)
You are correct! Both compounds, table salt (NaCl) and table sugar (C12H22O11), contain the element carbon.
To determine this, we can look at the chemical formula of table sugar (C12H22O11), which shows that it contains the element carbon (C). On the other hand, table salt's chemical formula is NaCl, where Na represents sodium (Na) and Cl represents chlorine (Cl). Since chlorine is not carbon, we can conclude that only table sugar contains carbon.
