검증된 단계별 안내1
Recall the basic classifications of matter: elements, compounds, homogeneous mixtures, and heterogeneous mixtures.
Understand that an element consists of only one type of atom, while a compound consists of two or more elements chemically combined in a fixed ratio.
Recognize that mixtures (both homogeneous and heterogeneous) contain two or more substances physically combined, not chemically bonded.
Identify ethanol (grain alcohol) as a compound because it is chemically composed of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen atoms in a fixed ratio (C2H5OH).
Since ethanol is a single chemical substance with uniform composition throughout, it is classified as a pure substance, not a mixture or element.
