Answer 1

Copper wire: Metal.

Plastic: It depends on the specific plastic. In general we can say that plastic is a polymer of some C-H-O combination. So, we can conclude that there are polar covalent.

Sodium Carbonate: Ionic.

Aluminum Foil: Metal.

Wood: Mixture.

Glass: Inorganic alloy with both ionic and covalent bonds.

Silver Wire: Metal.

Graphite: Pure covalent.

Potassium Chloride: ionic.

Lead: semi metal.

Silicon: Nonmetal

Potassium accetate (solid): Ionic bounds.

Potassium accetate (liquid): Mixture

Dime: Metallic alloy (mixture).

Sulfur: non metal.

Sugar: Polar covalent bounds.

Penny: Metallic alloy (mixture).

Celery: Mixture.

HCI(g) in ligroin: Mixture.

1.0M Sulfuric Acid:Solution (mixture) with polar covalent bonds

1.0M ammonia solution: Solution (mixture) with polar covalent bonds. More concentration means more quantity of this polar bonds, making more ionic the solution.

Acetic acid + ammonia miixture: Mixture

10M Sulfuric Acid: Mixture with polar covalent bonds.

Barium Hydroxide: ionic.

Sulfuric acid + barium hydroxide: Mixture.

DI water: Polar covalent bonds.

Tap Water: Mix (since the water have some traces of metals and other things)

Pure Ethonal: Covalent with both pure covalent and polar covalent bond

Pure Acetic Acid: Covalent with both pure covalent and polar covalent bond

95% Ethonal: Solution (mixture) with both pure covalent and polar covalent bond

10M acetic Acid: Solution (mixture) with both pure covalent and polar covalent bonds.

.0010HCI: Solution (mixture) with polar-covalent bonds.

.010M HCI: Solution (mixture) with polar-covalent bonds.

10M HCI: Solution (mixture) with polar-covalent bonds (more to high concentration).

1.0M HCI: Solution (mixture) with polar-covalent bonds.

Aqueous sodium carbonate: Solution (mixture) with ionic bonds.

Aqueous calcium carbonate: Solution (mixture) with ionic bonds.
