The correct answer is B. Chewing in the mouth breaks food into small pieces.

Explanation:

In physical changes, substances do not change their chemical composition or properties but only physical features such as this. This occurs during the chewing because the action of chewing only makes food to be broken down in smaller pieces but does not change its identity, composition, or properties. This does not occur once the food is in contact with saliva, the acid in the stomach, etc. because in these cases, the food reacts with other substances and a chemical reaction occurs, which changes food's identity and composition.

Step2247 [10]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

The equation of the reaction is;

C3H8 + 5O2 ----> 3CO2 + 4H2O

Number of moles of C3H8 = 132.33g/44g/mol = 3 moles

1 mole of C3H8 yields 3 moles of CO2

3 moles of C3H8 yields 3 × 3/1 = 9 moles of CO2

Number of moles of oxygen = 384.00 g/32 g/mol = 12 moles

5 moles of oxygen yields 3 moles of CO2

12 moles of oxygen yields 12 × 3/5 = 7.2 moles of CO2

Hence C3H8 is the limiting reactant.

Mass of CO2 produced = 9 moles of CO2 × 44 g/mol = 396 g of CO2

1 moles of C3H8 yields 4 moles of water

3 moles of C3H8 yields 3 × 4/1 = 12 moles of water

Mass of water = 12 moles of water × 18 g/mol = 216 g of water

b) Actual yield = 269.34 g

Theoretical yield = 396 g

% yield = actual yield/theoretical yield × 100/1

% yield = 269.34 g /396 g × 100

% yield = 68%

In a chemical reaction, the element 13al will most preferably ________. in a chemical reaction, the element 13al will most prefe
Rasek [7]
Let us calculate the structure of the electric shells of the Al atom. It has an atomic number of 13, so it has 13 electrons. The first 2 go to the first hell. The next 8 need to go to the second shell and the last 3 ones would go to the outermost shell. The outer shell, that is the most important one for chemical reactions, has thus 3 electrons. An atom always tries to have a completed outer shell (with either 2 or 8 atoms). It is easier for a cell to have a charge of +3 than a charge of -5 (smaller absolute value) and thus the Aluminum atom will try to get rid of the 3 electrons. In this process, it loses negative charge thus it will become positively charged. Hence, the correct answer is that it will prefer to lose 3 electrons and become positively charged.
