Mixing Matter: Can All Phases be Combined?

AI Thread Summary
All phases of matter can form mixtures, as demonstrated by examples like bronze, air, and hot chocolate. Mixing powdered bronze with air and hot chocolate illustrates how solids, gases, and liquids can interact. The discussion highlights the simplicity of creating such mixtures, even in a basic chemistry context. The ease of forming these mixtures suggests a fundamental principle of matter interaction. Overall, the conversation emphasizes the versatility of combining different states of matter.

Can all phases of matter form mixtures?

I can't use wikipdia because my computer won't let me

What couldn't you form a mixture of?
 
Think about bronze, the air, and hot chocolate
 
That is trivially simple...

grind bronze into a powder and whip it along with air into the hot chocolate.
Or you could just drop a piece of bronze into hot chocolate and cover (ensuring that there is some headspace for the air).

Thread 'Confusion regarding a chemical kinetics problem'

TL;DR Summary: cannot find out error in solution proposed. [![question with rate laws][1]][1] Now the rate law for the reaction (i.e reaction rate) can be written as: $$ R= k[N_2O_5] $$ my main question is, WHAT is this reaction equal to? what I mean here is, whether $$k[N_2O_5]= -d[N_2O_5]/dt$$ or is it $$k[N_2O_5]= -1/2 \frac{d}{dt} [N_2O_5] $$ ? The latter seems to be more apt, as the reaction rate must be -1/2 (disappearance rate of N2O5), which adheres to the stoichiometry of the...

Thread 'Prove that evolution is constant (Provide at least two arguments to support your position)'

I don't get how to argue it. i can prove: evolution is the ability to adapt, whether it's progression or regression from some point of view, so if evolution is not constant then animal generations couldn`t stay alive for a big amount of time because when climate is changing this generations die. but they dont. so evolution is constant. but its not an argument, right? how to fing arguments when i only prove it.. analytically, i guess it called that (this is indirectly related to biology, im...
