Under different assumptions on $p, q$ and $\beta\in\mathbb R$, we succeed to prove several existence and nonexistence results about the normalized solutions. Specifically, in the case of mass-subcritical nonlinear terms, we overcome the lack of compactness by establishing the least energy inequality and obtain the existence of the normalized solutions for any given $a,b > 0$ and $\beta\in\mathbb{R}$. While for the mass-supercritical case, we use the generalized Pohozaev equality to get the boundedness of the Palais-Smale sequence and obtain the positive normalized solution for any $\beta>0$. Finally, in the fractional Sobolev critical case i.e., $p=q=2_s^*$, we give a result about the nonexistence of the positive solution.
