Answer is: A compound is a pure substance because its molecule cannot be broken down into simpler particles by physical means.
Pure substance is made of only one type of atom (element) or only one type of molecule, it has definite and constant composition with distinct chemical properties. Pure substances can be separated chemically, not physically, that is difference between pure substances and mixtures.
Electrolysis of water (pure substance) is the chemical separation, because from one molecule (water) two molecules (hydrogen and oxygen) are produced. Water is separeted into two molecules:
Reaction of reduction at cathode: 2H⁺(aq) + 2e⁻ → H₂(g).
Reaction of oxidation at anode: 2H₂O(l) → O₂(g) + 4H⁺(aq) + 4e⁻.

Answer:
Explanation:
Alpha decay: In this process, alpha particles is emitted when a heavier nuclei decays into lighter nuclei. The alpha particle released has a charge of +2 units.
The general alpha decay reaction is given as:
According to the law of conservation of mass, mass can neither be created nor be destroyed. Thus the mass of products has to be equal to the mass of reactants. The number of atoms of each element has to be same on reactant and product side. Thus chemical equations are balanced.
Thus the balanced reaction is :
b. Cl2 and F2
c. NH4^{+} and H₃O^{+}
d. Fe and Co
e. Diamond and graphite
