Cement slabs are made by combining various minerals such as tricalcium silicate, dicalcium silicate, tricalcium aluminate and tetracalcium aluminoferrite. Each of these have their own properties that make them best suited for making cement slab. One diagnostic characteristic of a mineral used to make a cement slab is the formation of crystal structure.

at a constant temperature a gas is compressed from 4L to 1L. At 1L, the pressure of the gas is 98.2 kPa. What is the original pr
Elis [28]

Answer: 24.6kpa

Explanation:

This is a classic case where Boyle's Law can be applied.

The equation for Boyle's Law is given as: P1V1 = P2V2

Where P1 = initial pressure

P2 = final pressure

V1 = initial volume

V2 = final volume

From the question, P1 = ?, P2 = 98.2kpa , V1 =4L , V2 =1L

P1V1 = P2V2

P1 x 4L = 98.2 kpa x 1L

Make P1 subject of formula we then have:

P1 = 98.2kpa X 1L / 4L

= 24.6kpa

Complete question is;

Identify the type of reaction in the chemical reaction below:

2P205 ➡️ 4P + 502

single replacement

synthesis

decomposition

combustion

double replacement

Answer:

Decomposition

Explanation:

We. An see in the question that the compound 2P205 is broken down into simpler substances which are phosphorus (P) and oxygen (O).

Now, this is a decomposition reaction because a decomposition reaction is one in which a compound is broken down into simpler substances

If the pellets represent particles in matter, what do you think the shaking represents?
hammer [34]

Answer:

This question is incomplete. The completed question is below

Procedure

1. Read and complete a lab safety form.

2. Place about 50 copper pellets into  a plastic petri dish. Place the cover  on the dish, and secure it with tape.

3. Hold the dish by the edges. Gently  vibrate the dish from side to side no  more than 1–2 mm. Observe the  pellets. Record your observations in  your Science Journal.

4. Repeat step 3, vibrating the dish less  than 1 cm from side to side.

5. Repeat step 3, vibrating the dish  3–4 cm from side to side.

if the pellets represent particles in matter, what do you think the shaking represents?

Explanation:

This procedure seeks to illustrate the "properties" of particles in matter. The shaking of the pellets represents the movement of the particles of matter (which occurs in liquids and gases). This is because the movement of particles in a liquid and gaseous state freely moves around (reason the petri-dish was vibrated so the pellet particles which serve as the liquid/gaseous particles can move freely).

NOTE: The particles in a solid have a highly restricted movement (or no movement) because of the compact nature of the particles within the solid.
