What is a material which cannot be broken down or changed into another substance using chemical matters?

1 answer:

5 0

Elements cannot be broken down in this fashion.

Compounds, homogeneous mixtures, and heterogeneous mixtures can be broken down or separated with chemical processes, or in some cases, just by manual separation.

6) A volume of 473 mL of oxygen was collected at 27°C. What volume would the oxygen occupy at

sertanlavr [38]

Answer : The volume of oxygen occupy at 173° would be, 703.2 mL

Explanation :

Charles' Law : It states that volume of the gas is directly proportional to the temperature of the gas at constant pressure.

Mathematically,

$\frac{V_1}{T_1}=\frac{V_2}{T_2}$

where,

$V_1\text{ and }T_1$ are the initial volume and temperature of the gas.

$V_2\text{ and }T_2$ are the final volume and temperature of the gas.

We are given:

$V_1=473mL\\T_1=27^oC=(27+273)K=300K\\V_2=?\\T_2=173^oC=(173+273)K=446K$

Now put all the given values in above equation, we get:

$\frac{473mL}{300K}=\frac{V_2}{446K}\\\\V_2=703.2mL$

Therefore, the volume of oxygen occupy at 173° would be, 703.2 mL

A certain element has only two naturally occurring isotopes: one with 18 neutrons and the other with 20 neutrons. The element fo

melamori03 [73]

Answer:

[Cl-18]⁻ & [Cl-20]⁻

Explanation:

By definition isotopes are elements with the same number of protons by different number of neutrons. Elements X-18 & X-20 have 17 protons and represent Chlorine isotopes Cl-18 & Cl-20 each with 17 protons and 18 electrons to give the isotopes a -1 oxidation state. Both isotope of chlorine have 7 electron in its valence shell and 10 electrons in its core structure. Gaining 1 electron fills the valence octet and establishes a -1 oxidation state.

What is true about all plutons? They form near Earth’s surface. They form below Earth’s surface. They cut across other rock laye

pishuonlain [190]

<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is that they are formed below Earth's surface.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Plutons are defined as the intrusive igneous rocks named as plutonic rocks which are formed when the magma gets cools down slowly and solidifies below the Earth's surface.

It is different from volcanic rocks which are formed when lava gets cools down and solidifies on the Earth's surface.

Hence, the correct answer is that they are formed below Earth's surface.

What is best classified as a physical change?

andrew-mc [135]

A physical change is a change to a sample of matter in which some properties of the material change, but the identity of the matter does not. Physical changes can further be classified as reversible or irreversible. The melted ice cube may be refrozen, so melting is a reversible physical change.

A solution is made using 148.5 g of dimethyl ether (MM = 46.07 g/mol) and 90.0 g of methanol (MM = 32.04 g/mol). What is the mol

Mariulka [41]

Answer:

0.534

Explanation:

Mole fraction can be calculated using the formula:

Mole fraction = number of moles of solute ÷ number of moles of solvent and solute (solution).

In this question, solute is dimethyl ether while the solvent is methanol.

Mole (n) = mass (M) ÷ molar mass (MM)

Mole of solute (dimethyl ether) = 148.5 ÷ 46.07

= 3.22moles.

Mole of solvent (methanol) = 90 ÷ 32.04

= 2.81moles.

Total moles of solute and solvent = 3.22 + 2.81 = 6.03moles.

Mole fraction of dimethyl ether = number of moles of dimethyl ether ÷ number of moles of solution (dimethyl ether + methanol)

Mole fraction = 3.22/6.03

= 0.534
