Answer: Silver nitrate is the chemical reagent used to distinguish.

Explanation:

Dissolve both compounds in water. And add silver nitrate to that solution.

1. In case of calcium chloride

The calcium chloride is soluble in water and thus forms ions in aqueous solution.The chloride ions present in the solution react with silver ions of silver nitrate to give white color precipitate of silver chloride.

2AgNO_3+CaCl_2\rightarrow 2AgCl(white)+Ca(NO_3)_2

2. in case of calcium carbonate.

The calcium carbonate is poorly soluble in water. Since, it doesn't get dissolved in water.

When silver nitrate is added there will be no formation of any precipitate.

A chemical reagent that is used in this experiment is silver nitrate (AgNO3). It is used to distinguish calcium chloride and calcium carbonate. when this reagent is used, silver from silver nitrate reacts with Chloride to calcium chloride and forms silver chloride, making a precipitates of white color.

kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

The metric system goes by powers of ten, so it's very easy to measure. That would be the main advantage, measurements of ten. We can also say it's the most used measurement around the world, so all scientists have little to no conversion, but the main answer is probably the first one :)

What is the difference between a mixture and compound
bonufazy [111]
A compound is made up of a single type of molecule. A mixture, on the other hand, is made up of different substances that can be distinguished from one another.
As an example:
Water (pure water) is a compound since it's only made up of water molecules
Seawater is a mixture since it is made up of water molecules and soluble salts

Is the climate change that Greenland is experiencing and will continue to experience a good thing or bad thing for Greenland and
KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

bad thing.

Explanation:

most of Greenland is an icy island with the only main population on the west coast.

Although this would probably open up more land for use; the rising sea levels are a much bigger threat comparatively with the perks of warmer climate.

What is k in the rate law equation?
REY [17]

Answer:

B. A rate constant

Explanation:

The mathematical expression of rate law is given below,

Rate = K[A]m[B]n

This rate law show the relationship between the rate of chemical reaction and concentration of reactants.

In given equation [A] and [B] are molar concentration of reactants while K represent rate constant.

The value of K is specific for particular reaction at particular temperature,

m and n are represent exponents and determine experimentally. The value of K is not depend upon the concentrations of reactant but depend upon the surface area and temperature
