Answer:

Several properties (listed in the explanation)

Explanation:

The volume and density of air change with changes in temperature, T.

There are several things that take place:

As the temperature of air increases:

1. the volume increases - The gas particles have more kinetic energy to move hence the increase in volume. The kinetic energy is directly related to temperature as the energy is derived from the energies of the particles

2. the density decreases- there is less mass of air per unit volume. The air particles are not closely bound together

As the temperature of air decreases:

1. The volume decreases - the air particles lose kinetic energy and are close together.

2. the density increases - there is more weight per unit volume due to lower kinetic energy.

Answer:

single replacement

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

single replacement = A reaction in which one element replaces a similar element in a compound. For example, a metal replaces an other metal.

The general form of a single-replacement (also called single-displacement) reaction is:

A+BC→AC+B

Decomposition = a reaction in which a compound breaks down into two or more simpler substances. The general form of a decomposition reaction is:

AB→A+B

Synthesis = A reaction that occurs when one or more compounds combines to form a complex compound:

A + B → AB

Double replacement: a reaction in which the positive and negative ions of two ionic compounds exchange places to form two new compounds.

The general form of a double-replacement reaction is:

AB+CD→AD+BC

Combustion reaction = a reaction in which a substance reacts with oxygen gas, releasing energy in the form of light and heat. Combustion reactions must involve O2 as one reactant.

The reaction Zn + 2HCl → ZnCl2 + H2

⇒ Does not involve O2 = NOT a combustion reaction

⇒ The compounds do not form a complex compound = NOT a synthesis

⇒ A compound does not break down into smaller substances = NOT a decomposition

⇒ There is a replacement between Zn and H. This is a <u>single replacement</u>, not a double replacement reaction.

Need help asap with this chemistry if someone could help me

Answer:

Structure One:

N: -2
C: 0
O: +1

Structure Two:

N: 0
C: 0
O: -1

Structure Three:

N: -1
C: 0
O: 0.

Structure Number Two would likely be the most stable structure.

All five C atoms: 0
All six H atoms to C: 0
N atom: +1.

The N atom is the one that is "likely" to be attracted to an anion. See explanation.

Explanation:

When calculating the formal charge for an atom, the assumption is that electrons in a chemical bond are shared equally between the two bonding atoms. The formula for the formal charge of an atom can be written as:

$\text{Formal Charge} \\ = \text{Number of Valence Electrons in Element} \\ \phantom{=}-\text{Number of Chemical Bonds} \\\phantom{=} - \text{Number of nonbonding Lone Pair Electrons}$ .

For example, for the N atom in structure one of the first question,

N is in IUPAC group 15. There are 15 - 10 = 5 valence electrons on N.
This N atom is connected to only 1 chemical bond.
There are three pairs, or 6 electrons that aren't in a chemical bond.

The formal charge of this N atom will be $5 - 1 - 6 = -2$ .

Apply this rule to the other atoms. Note that a double bond counts as two bonds while a triple bond counts as three.

Structure One:

N: -2
C: 0
O: +1

Structure Two:

N: 0
C: 0
O: -1

Structure Three:

N: -1
C: 0
O: 0.

In general, the formal charge on all atoms in a molecule or an ion shall be as close to zero as possible. That rules out Structure number one.

Additionally, if there is a negative charge on one of the atoms, that atom shall preferably be the most electronegative one in the entire molecule. O is more electronegative than N. Structure two will likely be favored over structure three.

Similarly,

All five C atoms: 0
All six H atoms to C: 0
N atom: +1.

Assuming that electrons in a chemical bond are shared equally (which is likely not the case,) the nitrogen atom in this molecule will carry a positive charge. By that assumption, it would attract an anion.

Note that in reality this assumption seldom holds. In this ion, the N-H bond is highly polarized such that the partial positive charge is mostly located on the H atom bonded to the N atom. This example shows how the formal charge assumption might give misleading information. However, for the sake of this particular problem, the N atom is the one that is "likely" to be attracted to an anion.

A property is a characteristic of a substance that can be observed and does not change the identity of the substance. T/F

Murljashka [212]

The correct answer is false. The statement given does not describe a property in general. However, it speaks of a specific type of property which is the physical property. This property is the one that does not change the identity of a substance. A property can also be a chemical property where the identity of a substance is changed.
