Pure substance vs Mixture
« on: September 22, 2007, 02:53:46 PM »
What do you guys think..
Which ones are mixtures?

1. Pure cane sugar (sucrose)
2. Brown sugar
3. Vodka
4. Dry Ice
5. concrete
6. gopher guts
7. soda water
8. ice


My answer: #3, 5, and 7 are mixtures.

However I am confused about the others.  I dont even know what gopher guts are!  ???

How does brown sugar differ from pure cane sugar?

And gopher guts are gopher guts, just like horse stomach is horse stomach and beaver tail is beaver tail.

Isn't brown sugar like pure cane sugar except it is dried? So, it would make both of them pure substances?
