Gerald's science teacher mixed room temperature samples of hydrochloric acid and sodium hydroxide in a large beaker. The solutio

n still looked clear like water, but when the students carefully touched the beaker one at a time, it felt warm to the touch. Why did the beaker most likely feel warm?
A. The two liquids were not soluble in water.
B. The release of a gas heated the solution.
C. The energy of mixing warmed the solution.
D. A chemical reaction was producing a new substance.

Answer: Option (D) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

The chemical reaction equation will be as follows.

      HCl + NaOH \rightarrow NaCl + H_{2}O

This means a new substance has been formed and a chemical change has taken place.

A chemical reaction in which heat energy is absorbed by the reactant molecules is known as an endothermic reaction.  

For example, A + B + Heat \rightarrow AB

On the other hand, a chemical reaction in which heat energy is released by the reactant molecules is known as an exothermic reaction.  

For example, C + D \rightarrow CD + Heat is an exothermic reaction.

Thus, we can conclude that in the given situation the beaker most likely felt warm because a chemical reaction was producing a new substance.

The molecular weight of NaCl is 58.44 grams/mole. If you had a 1.0 molar solution (1.0 M), you would have to put 58.44 g of salt
Andre45 [30]

Answer:

5,844 grams of NaCl

Explanation:

Knowing the molecular weight 58,44 g/mole and saying 1 molar solution is 58,44 of NaCl in 1 liter of solution. 100 mL means 10% of the whole solution then we are going to have 10% of NaCl

58,44 x 0,1 = 5,844 grams of NaCl

All solutions<br>are mixtures; but<br>all mixtures are<br>not solutions.<br>why?​
aleksklad [387]

All solutions are mixtures of two or more substances, but unless the mixture has a homogeneous distribution of solutes in the solvent, then the mixture is not a solution. Therefore, all mixtures are not solutions.

Which of these is an indication that a chemical reaction has occurred?
Kobotan [32]

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

  • The correct option is C.
  • Formation of a precipitate

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

During a chemical reaction, new substances are formed known as a products, mostly reaction occur and their product is obtained as precipitates.

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

Arylidene-2-thiobarbituric acid is obtained as precipitates when aldehyde and thiobarbituric acid react to each other.

melting of a substance

It is just indication of physical changes, like melting of ice, composition remained same as before.

boiling of a substance

It is just indication of physical changes, like boiling of water into vapors, composition remained same as before.

freezing of a substance

It is just indication of physical changes, like freezing of water into ice, composition remained same as before

3. In elastic deformation, the deformed body returns to its original shape and size after the stresses are gone. In ductile deformation, there is a permanent change in the shape and size but no fracturing occurs. In brittle deformation, the body fractures after the strength is above the limit. 
4. Normal faults are faults where the hanging wall moves in a downward force based on the footwall; they are formed from tensional stresses and the stretching of the crust. Reverse faults are the opposite and the hanging wall moves in an upward force based on the footwall; they are formed by compressional stresses and the contraction of the crust.  Thrust faults are low-angle reverse faults where the hanging wall moves in an upward force based on the footwall; they are formed in the same way as reverse faults. Last, Strike-slip faults are faults where the movement is parallel to the crust of the fault; they are caused by an immense shear stress. 

I hope this helped! These are COMPLEX questions though! =D
