Chemical change because the wax particles are changing
daser333 [38]1 year ago
3 0

Answer:

It's a chemical change.

Explanation:

The process of burning (as opposed to evaporating) is a chemical reaction, a chemical change. The wax molecules are undergoing a chemical change; they are changing into different molecules by reacting with a substance in the air.

Does the volume of particles affect the behavior of gas
lilavasa [31]

Answer:

Yes, it does, although only physically and not chemically.

Explanation:

If a volume of gas is way spread out, it won't collide with the other gas particles as often, reducing pressure and temperature because they lose kinetic energy to their surroundings when they don't collide.

If it is compressed, it increases temperature and pressure because the gas particles collide with each other and the walls of the container way more often than if they had more space.

Hope this answers your question.

P.S.

Fun fact, gas particles are actually moving at 300-400 meters per second at room temperature, they only slow down to walking speed at very low temperatures, like 10 Kelvin

Use IUPAC rules to name this compound. A) nitrogen iodide B) nitrogen triiodide C) mononitrogen iodide D) mononitrogen triiodide
Mariulka [41]

Answer:

Name of the compound is Nitrogen triiodide.

Explanation:

According to the IUPAC rules, to naming of the compound the following formula can be applied.

Prefix + Name of first element + Base name element of second element + Suffix.

The given compound - NI_{3}

Name of first element- Nitrogen

Base name element of second element - Iodine

Suffix = 3 = tri

Here, iodine is in ionic form therefore, it becomes iodide. and then suffix will be added in front of the halogen.

Therefore, name of the compound will be  Nitrogen triiodide..

1. An object was carefully weighed on three different balances. Each balance was zeroed
Hoochie [10]

Answer:

10.335

Explanation:

An object was carefully weighed on three different balances

Each of these balances were zeroed before weighing

The masses that were weighed are as follows

10.35 g , 10.355 g, 10.30 g

Therefore the average value of these measurements can be calculated as follows

The total number of mass is 3

= 10.30 + 10.355 + 10.30/3

= 31,005/3

= 10.335

Hence the average value of these measurements is 10.335

What mass of ice can be melted with the same quantity of heat as required to raise the temperature of 3.00 mol H2O(l) by 50.0°C?
lions [1.4K]

Answer:

m=33.9g

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, we can first compute the heat required for such temperature increase, considering the molar heat capacity of water (75.38 J/mol°C):

Q=nCp \Delta T=3.00mol*75.38\frac{J}{mol\°C} *50.0\°C\\\\Q=11307J

Afterwards, the mass of ice that can be melted is computed by:

Q=n \Delta _{fus}H

So we solve for moles with the proper units handling:

n=\frac{Q}{\Delta _{fus}H} =\frac{11307J}{6010\frac{J}{mol} } =1.88mol

Finally, with the molar mass of water we compute the mass:

m=1.88mol*\frac{18g}{1mol}\\ \\m=33.9g

Best regards.
