Picking up a paper clip with a magnet. Physical change, Chemical change, or neither

Chemistry

Hello there! :D

A physical change is a change in which something is changed in appearance. For example, if I cut a piece of paper in half. 

A chemical change is when the composition (or the makeup) of something is changed. For example, baking soda and vinegar. They react to form a whole different thing. 

Picking up a paper clip with a magnet doesn't change its appearance. It doesn't change its composition. The magnet only picks up the paper clip because it attracts magnetic objects, if you were to take it off of the paper clip it would still be the same paper clip, and most likely look the same. 

I hope this helps!

Why does one mole of carbon atoms have a smaller mass than one mole of sulfur atoms?
Ratling [72]
To determine this, you can look at the molecular weight of that particular atom which is found on the periodic table. Carbon has a molar mass of 12.01 grams / mole. Sulfur has a molar mass of 32.06 grams / mole. This means one mole of carbon weighs 12.01 grams and one mole of sulfur weighs 32.06 grams. Therefore, one mole of carbon atoms has a smaller mss than one mole of sulfur atoms.

How do plants and animals help to maintain a balance of carbon dioxide in the air?
Rom4ik [11]
The process of photosynthesis in plants releases oxygen into the atmosphere. Respiration by plants and animals, as they use the energy stored in food, and the process of decomposition of dead organisms, releases carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. All three work together to maintain the carbon dioxide-oxygen cycle.
