<span>A physical change basically involves a change in physical properties. Some examples of physical properties include: texture, shape, size, color, volume, mass, weight, etc.
The water melting has changed the shape and therefore it's physical properties, but the chemical nature of the water has not been altered.
So that's why it's a physical change, and not a chemical change.</span>
Catalyst can speed up chemical reaction without being used up or involved in thr reaction..
Answer:
37S
Explanation:
Radioactivity is the spontaneous emission of particles and / or electromagnetic radiation by unstable atomic nuclei leading to their disintegration.
We have two main types of radioactivity: radioactive decay and artificial transmutation.
In radioactive decay ( natural radioactivity ), a naturally occurring radioactive element like Uranium-238 disintegrates or decays into more stable isotopes with the emission of particles and/or radiation.
23892U = 23490Th + 42He
Artificial transmutation is the collision of two particles where one particle captures the other used to bombard it. There is subsequent production of isotopes similar or different from the bombarded particle. Neutrons, alpha particles ( helium nucleus ), electrons, protons can be used to bombard elements.
147N + 42He = 178O + 11P
For the above question which is artificial transmutation, the reaction equation is
4018Ar + 10n = 3716S + 42He
So, the neutron capture by Argon-40 will produce a radioisotope Sulphur-37 with the emission of an alpha particle.
Answer:
Kyanite (Al2SiO5) - silicate
Ilmenite (FeTiO3) - Oxides
Rhodochrosite (MnCO3) - carbonate
Celestite (SrSO4) - sulphate
Chalcocite (Cu2S) - sulphide
Explanation:
Minerals are classified according to their chemical composition. For example those that hve the CO32- ion are called carbonates and those with the SO42- ion are called sulphates while the ones with S2- ion are called sulphides
Answer:
Elements in the same period have same number of electronic shell and electron is increased by one in every coming element with in same electronic shell.
Explanation:
Consider the second period of periodic table. This period consist of eight elements lithium, beryllium, boron, carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, fluorine and neon.
Electronic configuration of lithium:
Li₃ = [He] 2s¹
Electronic configuration of beryllium:
Be₄ = [He] 2s²
Electronic configuration of boron:
B₅ = [He] 2s² 2p¹
Electronic configuration of carbon:
C₆ = [He] 2s² 2p²
Electronic configuration of nitrogen:
N₇ = [He] 2s² 2p³
Electronic configuration of oxygen:
O₈ = [He] 2s² 2p⁴
Electronic configuration of fluorine:
F₉ = [He] 2s² 2p⁵
Electronic configuration of neon:
Ne₁₀ = [He] 2s² 2p⁶
All these elements present in same period having same electronic shell and number of electron increased by 1.
