Raise the boiling temperature
Metals are located on the left of the periodic table, and nonmetals are located on the upper right.
Explanation: Metals: Lustrous (shiny)
Good conductors of heat and electricity.
High melting point.
High density (heavy for their size)
Malleable (can be hammered)
Ductile (can be drawn into wires)
Usually solid at room temperature (an exception is mercury)
Opaque as a thin sheet (can't see through metals)
Nonmetals: High ionization energies.
High electronegativities.
Poor thermal conductors.
Poor electrical conductors.
Brittle solids—not malleable or ductile.
Little or no metallic luster.
Gain electrons easily.
Dull, not metallic-shiny, although they may be colorful
Answer: No
Explanation:
- Law of definite proportions is a case from the Law of conservation of energy (matter) which states that "mass can neither be created nor destroyed, but changed from one form to another."
- Adding coefficients to a chemical equation confirms that there is the same number of atoms on both sides of a reaction; therefore, matter has not been created or destroyed but reorganized to give new substrates.
Example : 2 Mg + O2 → 2 MgO
In the balanced equation above, 2 moles of Mg reacts with 1 mole of O2 to produce 2 moles of MgO.
mass of 2 moles of Mg = 24×2= 48 grams
mass of 1 mole of O2 = 16+16 = 32 grams
total mass of reactants = 48 + 32 = 80 grams
mass of 2 moles of MgO = (24+16) ×2 = 80 grams
total mass of products = 80 grams
It is clear that the number of grams of matter before and after the reaction is the same and equals to 80 grams, so obeys the law of definite proportions..
Answer:
No, just because carbon did not react with water, does not mean it wouldn't react with a different compound.
Explanation:
It is common knowledge that carbon is not in group 18, because it is found in all living compounds, and this means it must be reactive with many compounds. We know that water is not very reactive, but it is a good solvent. Meaning that many compounds can dissolve in water, but not chemically react with it. Carbon however is not very soluble because it does not create dipoles or hydrogen bonds. This means it will not show any change when in the presence of water, but if combined with oxygen, can form carbon dioxide.
For snow to fall to the ground, the temperature must be cold both up in the clouds where snowflakes form, and down at ground level. If the air near ground level is too warm, the snow will melt on its way down, changing to rain or freezing rain. Moisture is needed to form clouds and precipitation.
