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.

In a neutral atom, the number of protons is always equal to what other part of the atom?

Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

b. The number of electrons

Explanation:

A "neutral atom" has a neutral charge. This means that its charge is equal to zero. In order for the charges to cancel out each other, the atom's positive charge should be equal to the negative charge. These being said, the number of electrons (negatively-charged) is then equal to the number of protons (positively-charged). Those atoms which are not neutral are called "ions." This means that they either have more or less electrons than the protons.

When 6.0 mol Al react with 13 mol HCl, what is the limiting reactant, and how many moles of H2 can be formed?

Ad libitum [116K]

You're looking for the number of moles of H2, and you have 6.0 mol Al and 13 mol HCL.

For the first part, you have to make your way from 6.0 mol of Al to mol of H2, right? For that to happen, you need to make a conversion factor that will cancel the mol Al, in such case use the 2 moles of Al from your equation to cancel them out. At the top of the equation, you can use the number of moles of H2 from the equation and find the moles that will be produced for the H2.

6.0mol Al x 3 mol H2/2 mol Al = 9 mol H2

For the second part, you have to make the same procedure, make a conversion factor that will cancel the mol of HCL and for that you need to use the 6 mol HCL from your equation, and at the numerator you can put the 3 mol of H2 from the equation so that you can find the number of moles of H2 that will be produced.

13 mol HCL x 3 mol H2/6 mol HCL = 6.5 mol H2

As it can be seen, HCL produces the less amount of H2 moles. Therefore, the reaction CANNOT produce more than 6.5 mol H2, in that case 6.5 mol will be the maximum number of moles that will be produced at the end because HCL does not have enough to produce more than 6.5 mol.

In that case HCL is the limiting reactant because it limits that will be produced, and so the answer is B!

A solution of ammonia has a pH of 11.8. What is the concentration of OH– ions in the solution?

Basile [38]

Answer:

The answer is 2.20 M

Explanation:

This is because ammonia has a pH of 11.8 and if you take 14-11.8 it equals 2.2 so the answer is 2.20 M
