Is a table salt an element a compound a homogeneous mixture or a heterogeneous mixture?

A compound. As a solid, table salt consists of sodium cations (Na+) and chlorine anions (Cl-) which are arranged into a giant ionic lattice structure (which is held in place by the electrostatic attraction between the opposite charges on the ions) - the structure does not conduct electricity. In solution, this structure is lost as the salt dissolves; the oppositely charged ions are free to move about and pass each other, enabling the solution to conduct electricity. I would say that in solution or in a 'mixture' - depending on whether it is saturated, that it is a homogenous mixture as there is no physical difference in the state of the components of the mixture.

Is starch a mixture a compound or a element?

It's not an element; Check the Periodic Table. It's not a mixture, either, but a kind of carbohydrate. It's a molecular compound.


Is a carbonated soft drink a solution mixture or compound?

A soft drink is definitely a compound. You see, mixtures can be easily taken apart. A salad is an example of a mixture. A compound is a substance whose smallest unit is made up of atoms of more than one element bonded together. This just means that compounds cannot be separated easily. A soft drink, air, and carbon dioxide are some examples. A solution is sort of like a compound, except that a solution is a substance mixed into another. Some examples are table salt water- when you mix table salt into water- and powder lemonade when you mix it in water. In all solutions there is a level of solute. If you exceed this level, the solution will not mix all the way and you will be left with a substance you can see because it has overpowered the other.

Does table salt have aluminum in it?

Not in table salt it can be if because salt is going to be a positive ion from a basic solution and a negative ion from an acidic solution and if aluminum hydroxide is your basic solution and you have some other acid then your salt will contain aluminum.
