To match the pictures to the correct type of substance (Element, Compound, Mixture), we need to consider how the atoms are presented in each image.

  1. Element: If the picture shows only one color of atoms, it represents a single type of atom, which is an element.

  2. Compound: If the picture shows two or more colors of atoms that are combined in a specific ratio, it represents a compound (e.g. water (H2O) consists of two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom).

  3. Mixture: If the picture shows two or more different colors of atoms that are not combined (meaning they are separate and not in a specific ratio), it represents a mixture (e.g. sand and salt mixed together).

With that understanding, you would label the images as follows, correlating each based on the description provided:

  • A: Element (one color)
  • B: Compound (specific ratio of two or more colors combined)
  • C: Mixture (two or more colors not in a set ratio)
  • D: Element (one color)
  • E: Compound (specific ratio of two or more colors combined)
  • F: Mixture (two or more different colors not combined)

Please refer to the specific images to correctly assign them to A, B, C, D, E, and F based on the characteristics outlined. If you provide descriptions of the images, I can help match them directly.
