Explanation:
A change that does not cause any change in chemical composition of a substance is known as a physical change.
For example, mass, density, volume etc are all physical changes.
On the other hand, a change that brings change in chemical composition of a substance is known as chemical change.
For example, combustion, toxicity, reactivity etc are all chemical changes.
Hence, following statements are identified as chemical or physical changes as follows.
(a) Oxygen gas supports combustion : Chemical change
(b) Fertilizers help to increase agricultural production : Chemical change
(c) Water boils below
on top of a mountain : Physical change
(d) Lead is denser than aluminum : Physical change
(e) Uranium is a radioactive element : Chemical change
Answer:
A. Modern atomic theory is, of course, a little more involved than Dalton's theory but the essence of Dalton's theory remains valid. ... Also, there are different kinds of atoms (differing by their masses) within an element that are known as "isotopes", but isotopes of an element have the same chemical properties.
B. The explanation becomes a scientific theory. In everyday language a theory means a hunch or speculation. Not so in science. In science, the word theory refers to a comprehensive explanation of an important feature of nature supported by facts gathered over time.
The answer is 14.22 mg / (mm^2)
Answer:
Explanation:
6. When insulating materials rub against each other, they may become electrically charged .
7. Charging by conduction involves the contact of a charged object to a neutral object.
8. Grounding is the process of removing the excess charge on an object by means of the transfer of electrons between it and another object of substantial size.
9. Grounding is the process of removing the excess charge on an object by means of the transfer of electrons between it and another object of substantial size.
Answer : Al
Explanation :
- For a given redox reaction there must be an oxidizing agent/(s) and a reducing agent/(s).
- the oxidizing agent is the substance that undergoes reduction process (gaining electrons or loss of oxygen atoms), meanwhile, the reducing agent is the substance that undergoes oxidation process (loss of electrons or gaining of oxygen atoms).
- In the reaction above, the oxidation number of (Al) in AlCl3 is (3+). However, the oxidation number of (Al) in the products is zero because it exists as a single element.
Therefore, changing from (3+) to zero means gaining of (3) electrons to neutralize the previously existing (3) protons on (Al) in AlCl3.
So Al is the oxidizing agent..
