No. The only thing that changed was the looks of the gasoline, not the chemical components.
boyakko [2]3 years ago

Answer:

The correct answer is No

Explanation:

A chemical change is often characterized by the following

  • new substance is formed
  • not easily reversible
  • in most cases, process are represented by a chemical equation

The evaporation of gasoline does not meet any of the characteristics above. When, a gasoline evaporates, it is converted from it's liquid form to it's gaseous form hence <u>no new substance is formed</u>, and if this conversion is done in a controlled environment, the <u>gaseous form can be easily reversed back to it's liquid form</u> by cooling. There is <u>no chemical equation needed for this process</u> since no new substance is formed.

Because of the reasons provided earlier, evaporation of gasoline is a physical change and not a chemical change.

Atomic radius decreases with the increase of atomic number and mass number because the nuclear charge attracts the outermost shell leads to lower distance of the atom.

<h3>What is the trend of atomic radius across the periodic table?</h3>

Atomic radius decreases when we go from left to right to a period and increases down a group. In a period, effective nuclear charge increases as electron shielding remains the same. An atom gets larger as the number of orbits or shells increases. The radius of atoms increases as you go down the group in the periodic table. The size of an atom will decrease as you move from left to the right in a period. Within a period, protons are added to the nucleus which attracts electrons closer to the nucleus because of its increased positive charge i.e. proton. So that's why we can say that the force of attraction between nuclei and electrons increases, the atomic radius of the atoms decreases.

So we can conclude that Atomic radius decreases with the increase of atomic number and mass number because the nuclear charge attracts the outermost shell leads to lower distance of the atom.

Andrea and the other members of the tennis team are practicing hitting tennis balls. If two people hit identical balls at the sa
almond37 [142]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

The formula for calculating kinetic energy is 1/2mv^2, where m is the mass and v is the velocity or speed of the object. Since all of the balls have the same mass, the one with the highest speed or velocity will have the highest kinetic energy. Hope this helps!
