The correct answer is false. The statement given does not describe a property in general. However, it speaks of a specific type of property which is the physical property. This property is the one that does not change the identity of a substance. A property can also be a chemical property where the identity of a substance is changed.

We report an unusual case of mercury vapor poisoning from using a heated tobacco product. The suspect had added grains of mercury into 20 cigarettes in a pack. When a 36-year-old Japanese man inserted one of these cigarettes into the battery powered holder, it was heated to a temperature of 350 °C, and he inhaled vaporized mercury. After using 14 of the cigarettes over 16 h, he noticed he had flu-like symptoms so he visited the hospital. Although no physical abnormalities were revealed, 99 μg/L of mercury was detected in his serum sample. His general condition improved gradually and his whole blood mercury level had decreased to 38 μg/L 5 days later. When the remaining six cigarettes in the pack were examined, many metallic grains weighing a total of 1.57 g were observed. Energy dispersive X-ray fluorescence spectrometry confirmed the grains as elemental mercury. Accordingly, the victim was diagnosed with mercury poisoning. Because the mercury was incorporated into cigarettes, an unusual and novel intoxication occurred through the heating of the tobacco product. Both medical and forensic scientific examination confirmed this event as attempted murder.

Radio waves travel at the speed of light which is 3.00 x 10^8. How many minutes does it take for a radio message to reach saturn

ryzh [129]

Answer:

43.89 min

Explanation:

Given that:-

The speed of light = $3.00\times 10^8\ m/s$

The distance = $7.9\times 10^8\ km$

The conversion of distance in km to distance into m is shown below as:-

1 km = 1000 m

So,

Distance = $7.9\times 10^8\times 1000\ m=7.9\times 10^{11}\ m$

The relation between speed distance and time is shown below as:-

$Speed=\frac{Distance}{Time}$

Thus,

$3.00\times 10^8=\frac{7.9\times 10^{11}}{Time}$

$300000000\times time=10^{11}\times \:7.9\ s$

Time = 2633.33 seconds

Also, 1 s = 1/60 min

So,

Time= $\frac{2633.33}{60}\ min=43.89\ min$

Choose a likely identity for X, Y, and Z in these structures. A central X atom is bonded to two chlorine atoms through single bo

11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

X= Be

Y= B

Z=O

Explanation:

From the description of the compound XCl2, among the options listed only beryllium can form such compound with three lone pairs in the two chlorine atoms and no lone pair on the central atom X.

From the description of YCl3, only Boron among the options listed can form such a compound with no lone pair on the central atom and three lone pairs on each of the chlorine atoms.

From the description of ZCl2, only oxygen forms the compound OCl2 among the elements listed where oxygen possesses two lone pairs and each chlorine atom possesses three lone pairs each.
