When placed in a freezer, liquid water turns into solid ice. Why is this considered a physical change?

This is considered a physical change because the water does not change its chemical properties - it is still water. It is simply just moving its shape such as gas form, liquid form, or solid form.

Because you can physically see the object melting when it comes to the melting point. The objects texture, color, temperature, shape, and state of matter (solid, liquid, gas) are possibly changing. Especially the bolded changes are happening.

For example, in your question, your talking about ice. It changes its shape, state of matter, temperature, and texture.

A bag of fertilizer is labeled 10-20-20. What is the actual percentage of phosphorus in the fertilizer?
aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

20% of phosphorus

Explanation:

A fertilizer is used to improve the fertility of soils. Most fertilizers contains the element nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium.

They are often designated NPK fertilizers.

  Now we know that the numbers 10-20-20 depicts the nitrogen-phosphorus and potassium content of the fertilizer.

From the designation,

    The actual percentage is 20% of phosphorus.

                                               10%  of nitrogen

                                                20% of potassium

The vapor pressure of ethanol is 30°C at 98.5 mmHg and the heat of vaporization is 39.3 kJ/mol. Determine the normal boiling poi
Gelneren [198K]

Answer : The normal boiling point of ethanol will be, 348.67K or 75.67^oC

Explanation :

The Clausius- Clapeyron equation is :

\ln (\frac{P_2}{P_1})=\frac{\Delta H_{vap}}{R}\times (\frac{1}{T_1}-\frac{1}{T_2})

where,

P_1 = vapor pressure of ethanol at 30^oC = 98.5 mmHg

P_2 = vapor pressure of ethanol at normal boiling point = 1 atm = 760 mmHg

T_1 = temperature of ethanol = 30^oC=273+30=303K

T_2 = normal boiling point of ethanol = ?

\Delta H_{vap} = heat of vaporization = 39.3 kJ/mole = 39300 J/mole

R = universal constant = 8.314 J/K.mole

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

\ln (\frac{760mmHg}{98.5mmHg})=\frac{39300J/mole}{8.314J/K.mole}\times (\frac{1}{303K}-\frac{1}{T_2})

T_2=348.67K=348.67-273=75.67^oC

Hence, the normal boiling point of ethanol will be, 348.67K or 75.67^oC

What is the concentration of bromide, in ppm, if 12.41 g MgBr2 is dissolved in 2.55 L water.
pav-90 [236]

Answer:

concentration of bromide (Br⁻) = 4234 mg/L = 4234 ppm

Explanation:

ppm (parts per million) concentration is defined as the mass (in milligrams) of a substance dissolved in one liter of solution.

In our case we have:

mass of MgBr₂ = 12.41 g

volume of water (which is equal to the final solution volume) = 2.55 L

Now we devise the following reasoning:

if         12.41 g of MgBr₂ are dissolved in 2.55 L of water

then         X g of MgBr₂ are dissolved in 1 L of water

X = (1 × 12.41) / 2.55 = 4.867 g of MgBr₂

if in         184 g (1 mole) of MgBr₂ we have 160 g of Br⁻

then in   4.867 g of MgBr₂ we have Y g of Br⁻

Y = (4.867 × 160) / 184 = 4.232 g of bromide (Br⁻)

4.232 g of bromide (Br⁻) = 4234 mg of bromide (Br⁻)

concentration of bromide (Br⁻) = 4234 mg/L = 4234 ppm
