Explanation:

A physical change is defined as a change that does not bring any difference in chemical composition of a substance.

For example, shape, size, mass, volume, density, etc of a substance are all physical properties.

So, when copper is drawn into wire then there will occur change in its shape but there will not be any change in its chemical composition.

Whereas when a change in chemical composition of a substance occurs then it is known as a chemical change.

Hence, we can conclude that change in the shape of copper when it is drawn into wire indicates a physical change.

A 100.0 mL solution containing 0.864 g of maleic acid (MW=116.072 g/mol) is titrated with 0.276 M KOH. Calculate the pH of the s

Lilit [14]

Answer:

pH = 1.32

Explanation:

H₂M + KOH ------------------------ HM⁻ + H₂O + K⁺

This problem involves a weak diprotic acid which we can solve by realizing they amount to buffer solutions. In the first deprotonation if all the acid is not consumed we will have an equilibrium of a wak acid and its weak conjugate base. Lets see:

So first calculate the moles reacted and produced:

n H₂M = 0.864 g/mol x 1 mol/ 116.072 g = 0.074 mol H₂M

54 mL x 1L / 1000 mL x 0. 0.276 moles/L = 0.015 mol KOH

it is clear that the maleic acid will not be completely consumed, hence treat it as an equilibrium problem of a buffer solution.

moles H₂M left = 0.074 - 0.015 = 0.059

moles HM⁻ produced = 0.015

Using the Henderson - Hasselbach equation to solve for pH:

ph = pKₐ + log ( HM⁻/ HA) = 1.92 + log ( 0.015 / 0.059) = 1.325

Notes: In the HH equation we used the moles of the species since the volume is the same and they will cancel out in the quotient.

For polyprotic acids the second or third deprotonation contribution to the pH when there is still unreacted acid ( Maleic in this case) unreacted.

Select the keyword or phrase that will best complete each sentence. A tetrahedral carbon is____hybridized while a linear carbon

aivan3 [116]

Answer:

Explanation:

A tetrahedral carbon is__sp³__hybridized while a linear carbon is__sp___hybridized. Two different compounds that have the same molecular formula are known as___isomers____. Pi (π) bonds are generally_weaker (because they overlapped side ways)___than sigma (sigma) bonds. Hybridization is the combination of two or more__atomic ____orbitals to form the same number of__hybrid (combined s and p)__orbitals, each having the same shape and energy. A_pi (π)____bond is formed by side-by-side overlap of two p orbitals. The_electronegativity___is a measure of an atom's attraction for electrons in a bond and indicates how much a particular atom ''wants" electrons. Two Lewis structures that have the same atomic placement and a structure but a different arrangement of pi electrons are called_Resonance structure____. All single bonds are___sigma__bonds.

Sodium phosphate and calcium chloride react to form sodium chloride and calcium phosphate. If you have 379.4 grams of calcium ch

barxatty [35]

Answer: 353.6 g.

Explanation:

1) Word equation (given)

Sodium phosphate + calcium choride → sodium chloride + calcium phosphate

2) Balanced chemical equation

2 Na₃PO₄ +3 CaCl₂ → 6 NaCl + Ca₃(PO4)₂

3) Mole ratio

2 moles Na₃PO₄ : 3 moles CaCl₂ : 6 moles NaCl : 1 mole Ca₃(PO4)₂

4) Formula to convert grams to moles

number of moles = mass in grams / molar mass

5) Number of moles of limiting reactant

a) mass in grams = 379.4 g CaCl₂

b) molar mass CaCl₂ = 110.98 g/mol

c) number of moles CaCl₂ = 379.4 g / 110.98 g/mol = 3.419 moles

6) Theoretical yield of Ca₃(PO4)₂

3 moles CaCl₂ / 1 mole Ca₃(PO4)₂ = 3.419 moles CaCl₂ / x ⇒

x = 3.419 × 1 / 3 = 1.140 moles Ca₃(PO4)₂

7) Convert 1.140 moles Ca₃(PO4)₂

a) molar mass Ca₃(PO4)₂ = 310.1767 g/mol

b) mass in grams = number of moles × molar mass = 1.140 moles × 310.1767 g/mol = 353.6 g ← answer.

If two objects have the same density, they must have the same

Radda [10]

Answer:

no ,its not necessary tht two objects have same volume have the same mass because the density of the material they are made up of can be different. mass and volume areindependent, two objects with thesame volume can have differentmasses. Therefore, the objects can have different densities.
