Which of these involves the formation of a new chemical substance?

a. evaporation of gasoline

b. mixing salt and pepper

c. dissolving sugar in tea

d. rusting of an iron chain

$\\$

<h2><u>Answer:</u></h2>

D. Rusting of an iron chain

$__________$

<u>A. Evaporation of gasoline</u>

It does not form any chemical substance. Evaporation, is part of a physical change. Physical change only changes in its physical characteristics. Evaporation changes from liquid, to gas. Therefore, it is a physical change.

<u>B. Mixing salt and pepper</u>

No new substance formed. It does not form any chemical substance nor chemical change. When you mix salt and pepper, it only is a mixture wherein no new material can be form. Therefore, this is physical change as well.

<u>C. Dissolving sugar in tea</u>

When you dissolve sugar in your tea, it only changes the taste of the tea to sweet. Taste is part of the characteristic of physical change. It does not form any chemical substance nor chemical change. Therefore, this is physical change.

<u>D. Rusting of an iron chain</u>

Rusting is one of the common examples of chemical change in our daily lives. Rust is the new substance formed. However, this is considered as chemical change because this is irreversible or cannot be returned to its original substance/material. Finally, rusting of an iron chain involves the formation of new chemical substance.

<em><u>Hence, the answer is D. Rusting of an iron chain.</u></em>

How many moles are there in 990 grams of sugar, C12H22011? (Sig Figs, do not

Nitella [24]

Answer:

Number of moles = 2.89 mol

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of moles of sugar = ?

Mass of sugar = 990 g

Solution:

Formula:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Molar mass of C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁:

12× 12 + 22×1.008 + 16×11 = 342.2 g/mol

Number of moles = 990 g / 342.2 g/mol

Number of moles = 2.89 mol

15.1 L N2 at 25 °C and 125 kPa and 44.3 L O2 at 25 °C and 125 kPa were transferred to a tank with a volume of 6.25 L. What is th

Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

The total pressure of the mixture in the tank of volume 6.25 litres at 51°C is 1291.85 kPa.

Explanation:

For N2,

Pressure(P₁)=125 kPa

Volume(V₁)=15·1 L

Temperature (T₁)=25°C=25+273 K=298 K

Similarly, for Oxygen,

Pressure(P₂)= 125 kPa

Volume(V₂)= 44.3 L

Temperature(T₂)=25°C= 298 K

Then, for the mixture,

Volumeof the mixture( V)= 6.25 L

Pressure(P)=?

Temperature (T)= 51°C = 51+273 K=324 K

Then, By Combined gas laws,

$\frac{P_{1} V_{1} }{T_{1} } +\frac{P_{2} V_{2} }{T_{2} } =\frac{PV}{T}$

or, $\frac{15.1*125}{298} +\frac{44.3*125}{298} =\frac{P*6.25}{324}$

or, $6.34+18.58=\frac{P*6.25}{324}$

or, $P=\frac{24.92*324}{6.25}$

∴P=1291.85 kPa

So the total pressure of the mixture in the tank of volume 6.25 litres at 51°C is 1291.85 kPa.
