The psychical properties do no change the composition of the lithium metal.

The chemical properties will change the composition of the lithium producing other substances.

light enough to float on water - physical property

silvery gray in color - physical property

changes from silvery gray to black when placed in moist air - chemical property

(in air the lithium will react with the oxygen forming the oxide which have a black color)

can be cut with a sharp knife - physical property

in the liquid state, it boils at 1317 °C - physical property

reacts violently with chlorine to form a white solid - chemical property

in the liquid state, it reacts spontaneously with its glass container, producing a hole in the container - chemical property

burns in oxygen with a bright red flame - chemical property

Explanation:

A property that does not bring any change in chemical composition of a substance are known as physical properties.

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

On the other hand, a property that changes chemical composition of a substance is known as chemical property.

For example, precipitation, reactivity, toxicity etc are chemical property.

Hence, the given properties of lithium are classified as follows.

  • Light enough to float on water - Physical
  • silvery gray in color - Physical
  • changes from silvery gray to black when placed in moist air - Chemical
  • can be cut with a sharp knife - Physical
  • in the liquid state, it boils at 1317^{o}C - Physical
  • reacts violently with chlorine to form a white solid in the liquid state - Chemical
  • it reacts spontaneously with its glass container, producing a hole in the container - Chemical
  • burns in oxygen with a bright red flame - Chemical

The solubility of k2cr2o7 in water is 125 g/l at 20 °c. a solution is prepared at 20 °c that contains 6.0 grams of k2cr2o7 in 50
Pachacha [2.7K]
The solubility is the guide to the maximum amount of solute that can be dissolved in a certain amount of solvent at a certain temperature to make a saturated solution. Any amount less than this would result to unsaturated, while any amount more would result to saturated.

6 g/(50 mL * 1 L/1000 mL) = 120 g/L

Since it is less than the solubility of 125 g/L, then <em>this solution is unsaturated</em>.

Significant digits are the number of digits that reflect the precision of a measurement or number.
Delvig [45]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Significant digits are numbers that helps to present the precision of measurements calculations.

Numbers that do not contribute to the precision of a reading should not be counted as significant.

There are rules of assigning significant numbers:

  • Leading or trailing zeros are insignificant and should only be counted as a place holder.
  • All non-zero digits are significant
  • Zeroes between non-zero digits are significant.
  • Leading zeros in a decimal are significant before the number.
  • All the numbers in a scientific notation are significant.

A force of 20 N acts upon 5 kg block caculate the accerleration of the object
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

\boxed{\text{4 m $\cdot$ s$^{-2}$}}

Explanation:

F = ma

a = \dfrac{F}{m} = \dfrac{\text{20 N}}{\text{5 kg}} \times \dfrac{\text{1 kg$\cdot$ m $\cdot$ s$^{-2}$}}{\text{1 N}} = \text{4 m $\cdot$ s$^{-2}$}\\\\\text{The acceleration of the object is } \boxed{\textbf{4 m $\cdot$ s$^{\mathbf{-2}}$}}
