In the early studies of chemistry, scientists used properties and changed to help identify compounds. this is still done today.

if you were given the following observation about salt water, how would you classify it? "when electricity flows through a flask of salt water, bubbles form in the water. these bubbles, when collected, will burn."

Answer:

as an inflammable substance

Explanation:

Because when it reacts with electricity and water start to produce bubbles, and these bubbles burn, that mean is a substance flammable.

Now a days it is needed to have more test to identify a substance and to classify not just by the physical properties, also by the chemical properties and even  more, by the chemical behavior in front of other substances.

Which of the following is true?
Tomtit [17]

Answer:

a. A reaction in which the entropy of the system increases can be spontaneous only if it is endothermic.

Explanation:

The change in free energy (ΔG) that is, the <u>energy available to do work</u>, of a system for a constant-temperature process is:

ΔG = ΔH - TΔS

  • When ΔG < 0 the reaction is spontaneous in the forward direction.
  • When ΔG > 0 the reaction is nonspontaneous. The reaction is

spontaneous in the opposite direction.

  • When ΔG = 0 the system is at equilibrium.

If <u>both ΔH and ΔS are positive</u>, then ΔG will be negative only when the TΔS  term is greater in magnitude than ΔH. This condition is met when T is large.

A balloon contains 2.0 L of air at 101.5 kPa . You squeeze the balloon to a volume of 0.25 L.
8_murik_8 [283]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

812 kPa

<h3>Explanation:</h3>
  • According to Boyle's law pressure and volume of a fixed mass are inversely proportional at constant absolute temperature.
  • Mathematically, P\alpha \frac{1}{V}

At varying pressure and volume;

P1V1=P2V2

In this case;

Initial volume, V1 = 2.0 L

Initial pressure, P1 = 101.5 kPa

Final volume, V1 = 0.25 L

We are required to determine the new pressure;

P2=\frac{P1V1}{V2}

Replacing the known variables with the values;

P2=\frac{(101.5)(2.0L)}{0.25L}

           = 812 kPa

Thus, the pressure of air inside the balloon after squeezing is 812 kPa

What makes a compound a strong acid or base
SOVA2 [1]

If the acid is 100 percent dissociated in solutions of 1.0 M or less, it is called strong. Sulfuric acid is considered strong only in its first dissociation step; 100 percent dissociation isn't true as solutions become more concentrated.

What does the number of valence electrons determine?
N76 [4]

Valence electrons are the electrons in the outermost shell of an element on the periodic table. Atoms want to be able to have a full outer shell and they can share or trade electrons in order to achieve this. Valence electrons are also super super important in chemical reactions. The number of valence electrons determines what group that specific atom or element is in on the periodic table. This affects the reactivity of the element.
