Squeezing just the juices out of the orange, like with your hand or whatever you use, is a physical change. yes :)

This would be a physical change because despite the fact the juice has been squeezed out of it, the orange is still an orange. A physical change is when something changes matter, like a solid to a liquid or a liquid to a gas. Since it's been changed from a solid orange to liquid juice, it's a physical change.

Hope I helped! :)

A compound contains nitrogen and a metal. This compound goes through a combustion reaction such that compound X is produced from

tia_tia [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is: X is nitrogen dioxide, and Y is a metal oxide

Explanation:

Combustion of compound of containing nitrogen and metal will give nitrogen dioxide and metal oxide as product. During combustion reaction a compound reacts with oxygen in order to yield oxides of elements present in the compound.

The general equation is given as:

$4M_3N_x+7xO_2\rightarrow 4xNO_2+6M_2O_x$

Hence, the correct answer is :X is nitrogen dioxide, and Y is a metal oxide.

A gaseous fuel mixture stored at 747 mmHg and 298 K contains only methane (CH4) and propane (C3H8). When 11.1 L of this fuel mix

Alisiya [41]

Answer:

$M_f=38.8\%$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Pressure $P=747mmHg$

Temperature $T=298K$

Volume $V=11.1$

Heat Produced $Q=780kJ$

Generally the equation for ideal gas is mathematically given by

$PV=nRT$

$n= (747/760) *11.1/ (0.0821*298)$

$n=0.446mol$

Therefore

$x+y=0.446$

$x=0.446-y .....1$

Since

Heat of combustion of Methane=889 kJ/mol

Heat of combustion of Propane=2220 kJ/mol

Therefore

$x(889) + y(2220) = 760 ...... 2$

Comparing Equation 1 and 2 and solving simultaneously

$x=0.446-y .....1$

$x(889) + y(2220) = 760 ...... 2$

$x=0.173$

$y=0.273$

Therefore

Mole fraction 0f Methane is mathematically given as

$M_f=\frac{x}{n}*100\%$

$M_f=\frac{1.173}{0.446}*100\%$

$M_f=38.8\%$

What does vinegar do to eggs

andre [41]

Eggshells are made primarily of calcium carbonate. The acid in vinegar softens the calcium of the eggshell. Adding a little vinegar to the water when boiling eggs is an old cook’s trick that makes them easier to peel.
