Is salt water a compound or a mixture and why?
salt water is not considered a compound as the salt and water are not present in a fixed ratio. Thus it is called a mixture.
Which mixture would be easier to separate by distillation a mixture of pentane and octane or a mixture of pentane and a branched-chain octane isomer Explain your reasoning?
hexane and octane is easier to separate than hexane and heptane because the difference in their boiling points is greater thus hexane will distill out of solution more completely before octane
Does a weak acid resist a change in the pH?
It's easier to change the pH of a weak acid than a strong acid.

Why is separating a solid mixture is often easier than separating components of a solution?
Generally speaking, separating solid mixture same as mechanical mixture is easier than separating solutions because the components of the mechanical mixtures are usually quite different from each other.

Why do we need to separate the different materials in a mixture?
We separate mixtures for many things. It can be used for cleaning (filtering) our water. This is done by FILTRATION;when the substances in a mixture have different particle sizes, they are separated by filtration. The more different the properties are, the easier it is to separate the substances.Read more: SEPARATING MIXTURES http://www.infoplease.com/dk/science/encyclopedia/separating-mixtures.html#ixzz3OjF9dZjT
Can mixtures be separated much more easily than compounds?
Usually mixtures are easiest to separate into their substances.
Which is easier to separate into its original substances a compound or a mixture?
a mixture
How did the cotton gin simplify the job?
it made separating seeds from cotton easier
Are salt water homogeneous or heterogeneous mixtures?
A mixture like saltwater (Sodium Chloride) is said to be homogeneous because the dissolved particles are not visible. Properties of Sodium Chloride include a greater density then freshwater thus making it easier for objects to float on its interface as well as having a salty flavour.
Why are homogeneous mixtures easier to separate then heterogeneous mixtures?
There not. it is much easier to separate a heterogeneous mixture
Which mixture would be easier to separate by distillation a mixture of pentane and octane or a mixture of pentane and a branched-chain octane isomer Explain your reasoning?
hexane and octane is easier to separate than hexane and heptane because the difference in their boiling points is greater thus hexane will distill out of solution more completely before octane
Why are heterogeneous mixture easier to separate then homogeneous mixtures?
because race car
How do the general methods for separating mixtures and compounds differ?
Mixtures can be separated by filtration. Compounds can be separated by energy/bond energy.
What is the best way to file all your computer systems files?
In general, one can make efficient computer system files by separating groups and users, and keeping track of where files are. Separating work from personal files makes organization easier.
