Why can we characteristic properties of a substance to identify it

Chemistry

We can characterize properties of a substance to identify it because it helps us determine how the substance should be used. We can identify a substance by using physical or chemical properties. These help us by telling us which chemical we are looking at.  

I hope this helps.. I wasn't sure what kind of answer you were looking for.

Fluorine (F) has seven electrons in its outermost shell. Fluorine _____.
Ira Lisetskai [31]
2. F is non-metal, because it has seven electrons (more that 3)
3.It <span>fills its shell by gaining one electron, because it is easier to gain 1 e⁻ than to loose 7 e⁻.
4. It </span><span>becomes a negatively charged ion, because atom of F is neutral, it has "0" charge, and it takes one negatively charged electron(-1). (0 +(-1)= -1)</span>

An aqueous solution containing 10 g of an optically pure compound was diluted to 500 mL with water and was found to have a speci
lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

<u>Optical purity = 76.9231 %</u>

<u>Specific rotation of mixture = - 97.6923 °</u>

Explanation:

The mass of the racemic mixture = 3 g

It means it contains R enantiomer = 1.5 g

S enantiomer = 1.5 g

Amount of Pure R = 10 g

Total R = 11.5 g

Total volume = 500 mL + 500 mL = 1000 mL = 1 L

[R] = 11.5 g/L

[S] = 1.5 g/L

Enantiomeric excess = \frac {Excess}{Total\ Concentration}\times 100 = \frac {11.5-1.5}{11.5+1.5}\times 100 = 76.9231 %

<u>Optical purity = 76.9231 %</u>

Also,

Optical purity = \frac {optical\ rotation\ of\ mixture}{optical\ rotation\ of\ pure\ enantiomer}\times 100

Optical rotation of pure enantiomer = −127 °

76.9231=\frac {optical\ rotation\ of\ mixture}{-127^0}\times 100

<u>Specific rotation of mixture = - 97.6923 °</u>

How many watts of power (W) do you expend when you exert a force of 10 N that moves a
mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

Power = 7.5 watt

Explanation:

Given data:

Power expend = ?

Force applied = 10 N

Distance cover = 1.5 m

Time = 2 s

Solution:

Power = work/ time

First of all we will calculate work.

Work = Force × distance

Work = 10 N × 1.5 m

Work = 15 N.m

Now we will calculate the power.

Power = 15 N.m / 2s

N.m/s = 1 watt

Power = 7.5 watt
