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>

The equation for density, d, is

ss7ja [257]

<u>Answer:</u> The density of substance is $3.38g/cm^3$

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate density of a substance, we use the equation:

$\text{Density of substance}=\frac{\text{Mass of substance}}{\text{Volume of substance}}$

We are given:

Mass of substance = 61.6 g

Volume of substance = $18.2cm^3$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\text{Density of substance}=\frac{61.6g}{18.2cm^3}\\\\\text{Density of substance}=3.38g/cm^3$

Hence, the density of substance is $3.38g/cm^3$

The element californium (cf) sells for $1000 per µg. assuming 6.02 x 1023 atoms of cf have a mass of 251 grams, how many atoms o

saveliy_v [14]

Answer:- $2.40*10^1^0atoms$

Solution:- It is a simple unit conversion problem. We could solve this using dimensional analysis.

We know that, 1 US dollar = 100 cents

1 cent = 1 US penny

So, 1 US dollar = 100 US pennies

$1g=10^6\mu g$

Let's make the set up starting with 1 penny as:

$1penny(\frac{$1}{100pennies})(\frac{1\mu g}{$1000})(\frac{1g}{10^6\mu g})(\frac{6.02*10^2^3atoms}{251g})$

= $2.40*10^1^0atoms$

Therefore, we can bye $2.40*10^1^0atoms$ of Cf in one US penny.

Consider an electron with charge âˆ’eâˆ’e and mass mmm orbiting in a circle around a hydrogen nucleus (a single proton) with cha

PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

The net force on electron is electrostatic force between electron and proton in the nucleus .

Fc = $\frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon} \times \frac{e\times e}{r^2}$

This provides the centripetal force for the circular path of electron around the nucleus .

Centripetal force required = $\frac{m\times v^2}{r}$

So

$\frac{m\times v^2}{r}=\frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon} \times \frac{e\times e}{r^2}$

$v^2=\frac{e^2}{4\pi \epsilon m r}$

$v=(\frac{e^2}{4\pi \epsilon m r})^{\frac{1}{2} }$
