Question is incomplete, the complete question is as follows:
A student wants to examine a substance by altering the bonds within its molecules. Which of the following properties of the substance should the student examine?
A. Toxicity, because it can be observed by altering the state of the substance
B. Boiling point, because it can be observed by altering the state of the substance
C. Toxicity, because it can be observed by replacing the atoms of the substance with new atoms
D. Boiling point, because it can be observed by replacing the atoms of the substance with new atoms
Answer:
B.
Explanation:
A student can examine a substance without altering the bonds within the molecules by examining its boiling point.
The boiling point is the property of a substance, at which the substance changes its state, which is from solid to liquid, liquid to gas and others. So, examining the boiling point will alter the bonds within the molecules as the state of substance will change.
Hence, the correct answer is "B".
A free-radical substitution reaction is likely to be responsible for the observations. The reaction mechanism of a reaction like this can be grouped into three phases:
- Initiation; the "light" on the mixture deliver sufficient amount of energy such that the halogen molecules undergo homologous fission. It typically takes ultraviolet radiation to initiate fissions of the bonds.
- Propagation; free radicals react with molecules to produce new free radicals and molecules.
- Termination; two free radicals combine and form covalent bonds to produce stable molecules. Note that it is possible for two carbon-containing free-radicals to combine, leading to the production of trace amounts of long carbon chains in the product.

Expansion
Explanation:
Expansion is the change is size of a body with increasing temperature and tension.
Bridges are built of iron. Iron thermally expands in the presence of increased temperature during the day. The length of the iron will increase by simple fractions. At night, when temperature drops, the bar returns back to its initial position.
- The allowance for expansion of the metal is made in order to prevent tension within the structure.
- Not doing this will cause the material to break since there is no free space for the bar to change shape.

Density is an intrinsic property, so it is independent of the amount of substance present: one gold coin would have the same density as a solid gold boulder.
So if the density of gold is 19.3 g/cm³, the density of a bar of gold and the pieces into which the bar is cut would all be 19.3 g/cm³.
Answer:
D
Explanation:
I think but it is an better attempt than the other guy answer.
