generally melting point of mixture is always different from melting point of pure compound

lets say you have a two compounds called A and B

and you have a unknown compound called X which can be either A or B

now your target is to find unknown is really A or B right?

take some amount of X and mix it with A and B separately

out of these two mixtures one will be pure compound (because we initially assume that unknown can be either A or B)

suppose X + A is same melting with A then X is A

X +B will be less than the melting point of A or

suppose X+B is same melting point like B then X is B

X+A will be less than melting point of B

46. True or false. Chemical reactions do not involve changes in the chemical bonds that join

Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

Chemical reactions do not involve changes in the chemical bonds that join

atoms in compounds :

False

Explanation:

Chemical reaction are the reaction in which old bonds break and new bonds are formed . The formation of new bond result in formation of new compounds . This happen because new bond are result of linking different atoms by the bond.

For example : Water formation from Oxygen and Hydrogen is a chemical process :

$2H_{2}+O_{2}\rightarrow 2H_{2}O$

Original(old) bonds are :

H-H bond in H2 and O-O bonds in O2

In H2 = Hydrogen is joined to Hydrogen

IN O2 = Oxygen is joined to oxygen

New Bonds =

O-H bonds in water (H2O)

Oxygen is joined to hydrogen = New Bond formation

Hence,

Chemical reactions do involve changes in the chemical bonds that join

atoms in compounds

An ax is used to chop wood. The metal part chops through the wood, pushing it apart into two smaller sections. which simple mach

Sati [7]

The simple machine found on the head of the ax is Wedge. A wedge is an inclined plane that can be moved. When an ax is used to split wood, the ax handle exerts a force on the blade of the axe, which is the wedge. That force pushes the wedge down into the wood. The wedge in turn exerts an output force splitting the wood in two.
