The powder catches fire. The rest of the choices pertains to physical changes on the powder. When the powder catches fire a chemical change happens. For example, if the powder is organic, carbon dioxide and water will result during the combustion.

To gain an idea as to how many atoms are in a gram or so of copper, use the larger balance
anygoal [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we must understand the relationship between mass of a substance and the number of atoms.

Atoms are the smallest indivisible particles of any matter. A substance can be made up of several number of atoms in their space.

The mass of any substance is a function of the amount of atoms its contains.

The mass of a substance is related in chemistry to the amount of atoms its contains using the parameter called the number of moles.

A mole is the amount of substance that contains the Avogadro's number of particles. This number is 6.02  x 10²³ particles. The particles here can be protons, neutrons, electrons, atoms e.t.c.

Now,

             Number of moles  = \frac{mass}{molar mass}

          Molar mass of copper  = 63.6g/mole

         Number of moles  = \frac{2}{63.6}  = 0.03mole

Since 1 mole of a substance contains  6.02  x 10²³atoms

        0.03 mole of copper will contain 0.03 x  6.02  x 10²³atoms

                                                    = 1.89 x 10²² atoms

He needs to add 1.89 x 10²² atoms to make 2g of the sample.

Which sample of ethanol has particles with the highest average kinetic energy?
ale4655 [162]
The second one.
Remember, temperature is the AVERAGE kinetic energy. So, looking for highest average kinetic energy means looking for highest temperature, which is 55.
Note: the amount of the substance does not determine the average kinetic energy.

Balance this equation<br> _Al +_HCI --&gt; _H2 +_AICIz
kumpel [21]

2Al+6HCl⇒3H₂+2AlCl₃

<h3>Further explanation </h3>

Equalization of chemical reaction equations can be done using variables. Steps in equalizing the reaction equation:  

• 1. gives a coefficient on substances involved in the equation of reaction such as a, b, or c etc.  

• 2. make an equation based on the similarity of the number of atoms where the number of atoms = coefficient × index between reactant and product  

• 3. Select the coefficient of the substance with the most complex chemical formula equal to 1  

Reaction

Al+HCl⇒H₂+AlCl₃

  • Give coefficient

aAl+bHCl⇒cH₂+AlCl₃

  • Make equation

Al, left=a, right=1⇒a=1

Cl, left=b, right=3⇒b=3

H, left=b, right=2c⇒b=2c⇒3=2c⇒c=3/2

the equation becomes :

Al+3HCl⇒3/2H₂+AlCl₃ x2

2Al+6HCl⇒3H₂+2AlCl₃

Indicate which of the following criteria are important for the selection of a buffer to use in an in vitro biochemical reaction.
JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

The correct answer is: d. The pKa of the chosen buffer should be close to the optimal pH for the biochemical reaction.

Explanation:

The buffer resist or maintain the change in pH in case of Acid or basic addition to the solution. The buffer capacity should be within one or two pH units when compared to the optimal pH.

Thus it is important to select a buffer with pKa close to the optimum pH of the reaction because the ability for the buffer to maintain the pH is is great at the pH close to pKa.
