Is insulating ability a chemical property or physical?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Maurinko [17]3 years ago
6 0
The insulating ability of a substance is a physical characteristic and not a chemical one. A physical property is a characteristic that distinguishes one type of matter from the other and can be observed without changing the identity of the substance. A chemical property describes how one substance changes into another in a chemical reaction.

How many moles of O2 are required to generate 18 moles of H2O in the given reaction? 2C8H18 + 25O2 16CO2 + 18H2O
Veronika [31]
There's a slight error in your equation. I think you were trying to present it like this:

2C8H18 + 25O2 -> 16CO2 + 18H2O

Mole Ratio
O2 : H20
25 : 18
? moles : 18 moles
(18/18)×25 : 18 moles

25 moles : 18 moles

Final answer would be 25 moles of O2. :)

If you have any doubts that you want to clarify with me, please ask me! :)
I will do my utmost best to help you.

What would you do to change a saturated solid/liquid solution to an unsaturated solution
Semenov [28]

Explanation:

Saturated solid/liquid solution is changed to an unsaturated solution by the dilution process.

When the saturated solution is diluted by addition large quantity of solvent it changed to an unsaturated solution.

Saturated solid/liquid solution can also be changed to an unsaturated solution by increasing the temperature or heating the solution.

A saturated solution is a solution where further solute will not dissolve in the solvent.

An unsaturated solution is a solution in which has the ability to dissolve more solute.

A 0.1326 g sample of magnesium was burned in an oxygen bomb calorimeter. the total heat capacity of the calorimeter plus water w
Sladkaya [172]

Answer: Th enthalpy of combustion for the given reaction is 594.244 kJ/mol

Explanation: Enthalpy of combustion is defined as the decomposition of a substance in the presence of oxygen gas.

W are given a chemical reaction:

Mg(s)+\frac{1}{2}O_2(g)\rightarrow MgO(s)

c=5760J/^oC

\Delta T=0.570^oC

To calculate the enthalpy change, we use the formula:

\Delta H=c\Delta T\\\\\Delta H=5760J/^oC\times 0.570^oC=3283.2J

This is the amount of energy released when 0.1326 grams of sample was burned.

So, energy released when 1 gram of sample was burned is = \frac{3283.2J}{0.1326g}=24760.181J/g

Energy 1 mole of magnesium is being combusted, so to calculate the energy released when 1 mole of magnesium ( that is 24 g/mol of magnesium) is being combusted will be:

\Delta H=24760.181J/g\times 24g/mol\\\\\Delta H=594244.3J/mol\\\\\Delta H=594.244kJ/mol
