<span>No John Dalton made a fairly fundamental description of an atomic theory that still holds today for chemistry. In his theory, there are 4 things to consider 1. All matter is made of atoms, and atoms are indivisible and indestructible. * This right there makes the process described in the question impossible since the described process would require the destruction of copper and carbon, which is in violation of the first element of Dalton's theory. 2. All atoms of a given element are identical in mass and properties. 3. Compounds are formed by a combination of two or more different kinds of atoms. 4. A chemical reaction is a rearrangement of atoms. * This also is in conflict with the process described in the question. Since the process is described as chemical, that eliminates nuclear methods just as fission, or fusion. Now the spirit of the theory remains true, but modern knowledge does make the details different. For instance, we know of isotopes, so #2 isn't strictly true any longer. We also know of nuclear reactions so #1 isn't completely true either. But in general, his theory is as useful today as it was two hundred years ago.</span>

Describe what happens as ice changes to water.
morpeh [17]

Answer:

The energy of the particles increase and the molecules move more quickly.

Explanation:

The molecules are moving from a solid (barely moves, molecules close together) to a liquid (molecules slide past each other and take any shape), so molecules are moving more and have more energy

Which of the following is most likely to produce heat energy?
Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

B.Convection

the movement caused within a fluid by the tendency of hotter and therefore less dense material to rise, and colder, denser material to sink under the influence of gravity, which consequently results in transfer of heat.

Students asked to measure the temperature of a reaction beaker recorded the following temperatures. 103.7°C, 108.4°C, 105.8°C, 1
Nata [24]

There are two terms

a) accuracy : it relates to the exactness of an answer that how an answer is close to the actual answer or actual reading

So 104.6 is accurate

b) Precision : This is related to the closeness of different readings with each other

The first reading is 103.7 and the second one is 108.4  so the second reading is quite different from the first reading so it cannot be called as precised

Again 105.8 has good difference from the second reading hence again this is not precised

However the last reading 104.6 is quite near to 105.8 so 104.6 can be called as precise
