Yes that is true because physical changes change the shape or size of the objects but it is still in the same form. Chemical changes change the item completley. Please give brainliest, thank you and have a blessed day

Hello there!

The answer to this is True. Although you cannot reverse a cut potato, it's still considered a physical change because its composition of matter remained the same. If you were to, for example, deep-fry the potato, that would already be a chemical change. Because, the potato's composition of matter changed due to the oil that fried it.

Hope I helped!

When a 2.00 g sample of KCl is dissolved in water in a calorimeter that has a total heat capacity of 1.28 kJ ⋅ K − 1 , the tempe

Alchen [17]

Answer : The molar heat of solution of KCl is, 17.19 kJ/mol

Explanation :

First we have to calculate the heat of solution.

$q=c\times (\Delta T)$

where,

q = heat produced = ?

c = specific heat capacity of water = $1.28kJ/K$

$\Delta T$ = change in temperature = 0.360 K

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

$q=1.28kJ/K\times 0.360K$

$q=0.4608kJ=460.8J$

Now we have to calculate the molar heat solution of KCl.

$\Delta H=\frac{q}{n}$

where,

$\Delta H$ = enthalpy change = ?

q = heat released = 460.8 J

m = mass of $KCl$ = 2.00 g

Molar mass of $KCl$ = 74.55 g/mol

$\text{Moles of }KCl=\frac{\text{Mass of }KCl}{\text{Molar mass of }KCl}=\frac{2.00g}{74.55g/mole}=0.0268mole$

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

$\Delta H=\frac{460.8J}{0.0268mole}$

$\Delta H=17194.029J/mol=17.19kJ/mol$

Therefore, the molar heat of solution of KCl is, 17.19 kJ/mol

Why does lithium form only lithium oxide and not peroxide or superoxide

Alexandra [31]

Answer:

Lithium does form a peroxide as well as an oxide on burning in air and I suspect the low temperature reaction with air forms a significant amount of peroxide.

The naturally occurring radioactive decay series that begins with 23592U stops with formation of the stable 20782Pb nucleus. The

Answer: There are 7 alpha-particle emissions and 4 beta-particle emissions involved in this series

Explanation:

Alpha Decay: In this process, a heavier nuclei decays into lighter nuclei by releasing alpha particle. The mass number is reduced by 4 units and atomic number is reduced by 2 units.

Beta Decay : It is a type of decay process, in which a proton gets converted to neutron and an electron. This is also known as -decay. In this the mass number remains same but the atomic number is increased by 1.

In radioactive decay the sum of atomic number or mass number of reactants must be equal to the sum of atomic number or mass number of products .

$_{92}^{235}\textrm{U}\rightarrow _{82}^{207}\textrm{Pb}+X_2^4\alpha+Y_{-1}^0e$

Thus for mass number : 235 = 207+4X

4X= 28

X = 7

Thus for atomic number : 92 = 82+2X-Y

2X- Y = 10

2(7) - Y= 10

14-10 = Y

Y= 4

$_{92}^{235}\textrm{U}\rightarrow _{82}^{207}\textrm{Pb}+7_2^4\alpha+4_{-1}^0e$

Thus there are 7 alpha-particle emissions and 4 beta-particle emissions involved in this series
