air, some of the calcium bicarbonate turns into calcium carbonate, which gets deposited on the ground. What makes this process a chemical change?
A. A new substance is formed in this process, which is an important clue to chemical change.
B. A change in state is observed in this process, which is an important clue to chemical change.
C. This process involves separation of dissolved substances, which is an an important clue to chemical change.
D. This process involves dissolving substances together, which is an an important clue to chemical change.

Answer:

A. A new substance is formed in this process, which is an important clue to chemical change.

Explanation:

A chemical change occurs when a chemical reaction is taken place, so, a new substance is formed. When a physical change occurs, there is a change only in the state of the substance, there is not formed new substances.  So, in the process given, is formed calcium carbonate from calcium bicarbonate, which is a new substance, and a clue that a chemical change happened.

HELP! ASAP! Iron (Fe) and copper (II) chloride (CuCl2) combine to form iron (III) chloride (FeCl3) and copper (Cu). If you start
Helga [31]

Answer: 30.978

Explanation:

From the equation 2 moles of Fe will result in 3 moles copper

so .325 moles Fe will result in .4875 moles Cu

Cu weights 63.546 gm per mole

.4875 moles * 63.546 gm / mole = 30.978 gm of Cu

Which of the following ions is formed when a base is dissolved in a solution?
Aneli [31]

Answer:

\huge\boxed{\sf OH-}

Explanation:

<u>According to Arrhenius concept of acid and base:</u>

"When a base in a solution, produces/yields OH- (Hydroxide) ions."

So, when a base is dissolved in a solution, it produces OH- ions.

<u>For example:</u>

NaOH ⇄ Na⁺ + OH⁻ (So, it is a base)

\rule[225]{225}{2}

Hope this helped!

Which of the following statements is false? Check all that apply. Gases are far more compressible than liquids The volume occupi
Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

The false statement is: 3. Because liquid water and liquid carbon tetrachloride do not mix, neither do their vapors

Explanation:

Gas is a state of matter, that has <u>less density than liquids and solids</u>. The gaseous particles have low intermolecular forces and thus they can move freely.

It is a very <u>compressible fluid</u> that has no fixed shape. Gas occupies the whole container in which it is stored, thus taking the shape of the container. Therefore, <u>the volume of the gas is equal to the volume of the container.</u>

<u>Polar liquid like water (H₂O) and nonpolar liquid like carbon tetrachloride, are immiscible. However, in the gaseous state, their vapors form a  homogeneous mixture.</u>
