С. After evaporating a liquid, there is nothing left behind

Explanation:

In chemistry, a pure substance is that substance that has a definite chemical composition. It cannot be separated using physical means as the chemical bonds that forms it have to be broken. Pure substances include elements and compounds.

According to this question, a good evidence that an unknown sample is a pure substance would be that: After evaporating a liquid, there is nothing left behind. This means that after using physical separation technique, THE PURE SUBSTANCE COULD NOT BE SEPARATED, hence, nothing is left behind.

false

because it does not have the potential to be entirely used up

when [oh-] is 10-5  m, and [h3o+] is 10-9  m, the poh is 5 and ph is 9. again in both cases the sum of ph and poh is 14. however, the hydrogen ion concentration is not always going to be equal to exactly 1 x 10 raised to a negative number. for example, we skipped over the value of 2.0 x 10-7.
