Answer:

When the surface of a mineral reflects light in manner that is similar to a metal, the mineral is said to have a <u>metallic luster.</u>

Explanation:

A mineral is a pure, naturally occurring, solid chemical substance. They have a crystalline structure and a definite chemical composition.

Another physical property that can be used to define a mineral is luster. It can be of two types: metallic luster and non-metallic luster.

A mineral is said to have a metallic luster, if it has high reflectivity like a metal. Examples : pyrite, galena.

Answer:

                     1. 10.66 moles of Al

                     2.  2.5 moles of Al₂O₃

                     3. 143.87 g of SO₂

Explanation:

                    The balance chemical equation is as follow,

                                      4 Al + 3 O₂ → 2 Al₂O₃

<h3>1.</h3>

According to balance chemical equation,

                       3 moles of O₂ required  =  4 moles of Al

So,

                     8 moles of O₂ will require  =  X moles of Al

Solving for X,

                      X =  8 mol × 4 mol / 3 mol

                      X =  10.66 moles of Al

<h3>2.</h3>

According to balance chemical equation,

                       4 moles of Al produced  =  2 moles of Al₂O₃

So,

                     5 moles of Al will produce  =  X moles of Al₂O₃

Solving for X,

                      X =  5 mol × 2 mol / 4 mol

                      X =  2.5 moles of Al₂O₃

<h3>3.</h3>

The balance chemical equation for the oxidation of carbon disulfide is as follow;

                                CS₂ + 3 O₂ → CO₂ + 2 SO₂

Step 1: <u>Calculate Moles of CS₂ as;</u>

                  Moles  =  Mass / M.Mass

                  Moles  =  85.5 g / 76.14 g/mol

                  Moles  =  1.12 moles of CS₂

Step 2: <u>Find out moles of SO₂ as;</u>

According to balance chemical equation,

                       1 mole of CS₂ produced  =  2 moles of SO₂

So,

                     1.12 moles of CS₂ will produce  =  X moles of SO₂

Solving for X,

                      X =  1.12 mol × 2 mol / 1 mol

                      X =  2.24 moles of SO₂

Step 3: <u>Calculate Mass of SO₂ as;</u>

                  Mass  =  Moles × M.Mass

                  Mass  =  2.24 mol × 64.06 g/mol

                  Mass  =  143.87 g of SO₂

Is a light bulb chemical or physical change. State evidence why
irakobra [83]

Answer:

It is a chemical change.

Explanation:

When the electricity is off, the filament cools down to its original physical state. This physical process repeats every time the light is turned on and off. However, if the bulb is cracked and air is introduced, the oxygen in the air reacts with the tungsten filament which then undergoes a chemical change.

Suppose a student completes an experiment with an average value of 2.9 mL and a calculated standard deviation of 0.71 mL. What i
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

The correct answer is 2.2 mL.

Explanation:

Given:

Average: 2.9 mL

SD: 0.71 mL

We can define a 1 SD range in which the value of volume (in mL) will be comprised:

Volume (mL) = Average ± SD = (2.9 ± 0.7) mL

Maximum value= Average + SD= 2.9 + 0.7 mL = 3.6 mL

Minimum value= Average - SD = 2.9 - 0.7 mL = 2.2 mL

Thus, the minimum value within a 1 SD range of the average is 2.2 mL
