ANSWER

The temperature at which it boils is a measure of its physical property

STEP-BY-STEP EXPLANATION:

Firstly, we need to define the physical and chemical property of matter

The physical property of matter is characteristic of matter that is not associated with a change in its chemical composition. The physical properties include; color, density, hardness, melting, and boiling point.

The chemical property of matter is characteristic of matter that is associated with a change of matter from one type to another type. The chemical properties include; Flammability, toxicity, acidity, reactivity, etc.

When a liquid is boiled, it changes its state from liquid to vapor, this change of state is associated with the physical property of matter.

Hence, the temperature at which it boils is a measure of its physical property

Calculate the solubility of mn(oh)2 in grams per liter when buffered at ph=7.0. assume that buffer capacity is not exhausted

Vanyuwa [196]

When PH + POH = 14
∴ POH = 14 -7 = 7

when POH = -㏒[OH-]

7 = -㏒ [OH-]
∴[OH-] = 10^-7

by using ICE table:

Mn(OH)2(s) ⇄ Mn2+ (aq) + 2OH-(aq)
initial 0 10^-7
change +X +2X
Equ X (10^-7 + 2X)

when Ksp = [Mn2+][OH-]^2

when Ksp of Mn(OH)2 = 4.6 x 10^-14

by substitution:

4.6 x 10^-14 = X*(10^-7+2X)^2 by solving this equation for X

∴ X =2.3 x 10-5 M

∴ The solubility of Mn(OH)2 in grams per liter (when the molar mass of Mn(OH)2 = 88.953 g/mol
= 2.3 x10^-5 moles/L * 88.953 g/mol

= 0.002 g/ L

What is the function of the phytoplankton in the ocean ecosystem

Nitella [24]

Phytoplankton is a type of micro algae. This creature is similar to the other plants in the ocean biome. But what makes it special is the fact that it is the main produce in the food web. The plant is so small that it is impossible to see it with the naked eye.

However, that doesn’t remove the fact that phytoplankton contains a huge amount of chlorophyll. Here are the 13 Function of the Phytoplankton in Ocean Ecosystem. Find out what makes this small plant so crucial to the ocean

Draw the Lewis structure for methane (CH4) and ethane (C2H6) in the box below. Then predict which would have the higher boiling

Alinara [238K]

Answer:

Ethane would have a higher boiling point.

Explanation:

In this case, for the lewis structures, we have to keep in mind that all atoms must have 8 electrons (except hydrogen). Additionally, each carbon would have 4 valence electrons, with this in mind, for methane we have to put the hydrogens around the carbon, and with this structure, we will have 8 electrons for the carbon. In ethane, we will have a bond between the carbons, therefore we have to put three hydrogens around each carbon to obtain 8 electrons for each carbon.

Now, the main difference between methane and ethane is an additional carbon. In ethane, we have an additional carbon, therefore due to this additional carbon, we will have more area of interaction for ethane. If we have more area of interaction we have to give more energy to the molecule to convert from liquid to gas, so, the ethane will have a higher boiling point.

I hope it helps!

How can you tell if a chemical is a metallic bond?

coldgirl [10]

Answer: In a metallic bond, each metal atom is surrounded by lots of other metal atoms, and they all share their valence electrons. When two oxygen atoms bond, they become a molecule and don't interact much with other molecules.
