Describe two ways he could change the metal physically and two ways he could change the metal chemically to try to identify it.

6 0

Physical change is a change that occurs in a substance that does not change the identity of the substance. It does not alter the chemical structure of the molecules ehile chemical change involves the breaking of the bonds in the substance forming new substance. To identify a metal physically, we can use properties like their boiling and melting points. We can determine at what temperatures these metals melt or boil then from literature we compare the values. Another properties that can be looked upon to are hardness, color and density. For chemical methods, we can allow it to react with substances, that will produce precipitates containing the metal in question. Also, we can use other methods like titration method. All chemical methods involves the use of chemical reactions.

In an endothermic reaction what is true of the enthalpy

charle [14.2K]

Answer is: a) is has increased.

There are two types of reaction:

1) endothermic reaction (chemical reaction that absorbs more energy than it releases).

For example, the breakdown of ozone is an endothermic process. Ozone has lower energy than molecular oxygen (O₂) and oxygen atom, so ozone need energy to break bond between oxygen atoms.

2) exothermic reaction (chemical reaction that releases more energy than it absorbs).

For example, ΔH(reaction) = -225 kJ/mol; this is exothermic reaction.

A sample of gaseous neon atoms at atmospheric pressure and 0 °c contains 2.69 * 1022 atoms per liter. the atomic radius of neon

omeli [17]

Explanation

Radius of neon atom : 69 pm = $69\times 10^{-12} m$

Volume occupied by the one atom: $\frac{4}{3}\pi r^3$

$=\frac{4}{3}\times 3.14\times(69\times 10^{-12} m)^3=1.37\times 10^{-30} m^3$

given that $2.69\times 10^{22}$ atoms are present in 1L

1 L = 0.001 $m^3$

The volume occupied by the $2.69\times 10^{22}$ neon atoms

$2.69\times 10^{22}\times 1.37\times 10^{-30} m^3=3.68\times 10^{-8} m^3$

Fraction of volume occupied by the neon atom:

$=\frac{3.68\times 10^{-8} m^3}{0.001 m^3}=3.68\times 10^{-11} m^3$

$3.68\times 10^{-11} m^3$

The fraction of of volume occupied by the neon atom is very less than the 1 L which indicates the presence of large amount of empty space between the atoms of the gas.
