Answer:

<u><em>The answer is</em></u>: <u>a. True.</u>

<u />

Explanation:

Mass and weight are different properties,<em> which are defined in the field of physics.</em> Mass is a measure of the amount of matter that a body possesses <em>while weight is a measure of the force that is caused on the body, by the gravitational field of another. </em>

The balance is an instrument used to measure the mass of objects.

<u><em>The answer is</em></u>: <u>a. True.</u>

A 4.86-gram sample of calcium reacted completely with oxygen to form 6.80 grams of calcium oxide. This reaction is represented b
sesenic [268]
The number of mole of Ca reacted is:
4.86 g Ca/ (40.08 g/mol Ca)= 0.121 mol Ca

Because Ca reacted completely with oxygen and there is 2 mol Ca, there is 1 mol O2 reacted.

Total mass of oxygen that reacted is:
0.121 mol Ca* (1mol O2/ 2 mol Ca)* (32 g O2/ 1 mol O2)= 1.94 g O2 reacted.

Hope this would help~

What mass of hydrogen sulfide, H2S, will completely react with 2.00 moles of silver nitrate, AgNO3?
hodyreva [135]

Answer:

34g

Explanation:

We'll begin by writing the balanced equation for the reaction. This is illustrated below:

H2S + 2AgNO3 —> 2HNO3 + Ag2S

Next, we shall determine the number of mole of H2S required to react with 2 moles of AgNO3.

This is illustrated below:

From the balanced equation above,

We can see that 1 mole of H2S is required to react completely with 2 moles of AgNO3.

Finally, we shall convert 1 mole of H2S to grams. This is shown below:

Number of mole H2S = 1 mole

Molar mass of H2S = (2x1) + 32 = 34g/mol

Mass = number of mole x molar Mass

Mass of H2S = 1 x 34

Mass of H2S = 34g

Therefore, 34g of H2S is needed to react with 2 moles of AgNO3.

Oksanka [162]
<h2>Answer : Option B) The hematite particles rearrange to form a new substance.</h2><h3>Explanation :</h3>

Hematite particles when gets rearranged to form a new substance,  is an example of a chemical change.

As a chemical changes is usually a change where a substance undergoes a chemical change and forms a new substance; which cannot be easily reversed into reactants by any simple physical methods.

In this example the hematite ore forms a new substance by an irreversible chemical change.

gladu [14]

<u><em>Answer:</em></u>

  • A pure substance that contains more than one atom is called a compound.

<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>

  • Compounds are formed by combination of atoms by a fixed ratio. They have their own characteristic features.
  • Pure substances are further broken down into elements and compounds. A compound can be destroyed by chemical means. It might be broken down into simpler compounds, into its elements or a combination of the two.

<u><em>Example </em></u>

  • H2SO4 which  is formed by combination of three different atoms like H, S and O.

In what beaker does the sugar dissolve the fastest? ( particle size, temp. of water, condition(stir/no stir), etc).
Vsevolod [243]
Temperature. In case you have ever baked, you can relate to this. For example, when you make caramel, you simply put the caramel on a boiling hot pan and sit back and watch it. It always goes fastest this way.
