But I could go either way with (3) and (4). // The analysis reminds me of the 'Is it a compound or is it a mixture?' – when we've mixed carefully calculated masses of A and B (and perhaps retreated rapidly) scenario. But it's probably neither, but 'whichever one the analytical method chosen demands'. | |
