The following does NOT indicate that a chemical change
may have taken place is fracture formation. A chemical change happens when the
substance changes its physical state and composition resulting from a chemical
reaction. This chemical reaction may either give off or absorb energy. A change
in color is a chemical change. For example, litmus paper turns to red when
placed in an acid solution. Production of gas is a chemical change. For
example, adding hydrochloric acid to the tiles of the bathroom gives a hissing
sound with gases given off. Formation of a precipitate is also a chemical
change. Change in shape is not a chemical change.

Given parameters:
Volume of CuSO₄ = 250mL
Concentration of CuSO₄ = 2.01M
Unknown:
Mass of CuSO₄.5H₂O = ?
To solve this problem, we must write the chemical relationship between both species.;
CuSO₄.5H₂O → CuSO₄ + 5H₂O
Now that we know the expression, it is possible to solve for the unknown mass.
First find the number of moles of CuSO₄;
Number of moles = Concentration x Volume
Take 250mL to L so as to ensure uniformity of units;
Volume = 250 x 10⁻³L
Input the parameters and solve for number of moles;
Number of moles = 250 x 10⁻³ x 2.01 = 0.5mol
From the equation;
1 mole of CuSO₄ is produced from 1 mole of CuSO₄.5H₂O
So 0.5 moles of CuSO₄ will be produced from 0.5 moles of CuSO₄.5H₂O
Now let us find the molar mass of CuSO₄.5H₂O = 63.6 + 32 + 4(16) + 5(2x1 + 16) = 249.6g/mole
Mass of CuSO₄.5H₂O = number of moles x molar mass
= 0.5 x 249.6
= 124.8g
The mass of CuSO₄.5H₂O is 124.8g
The molecule with same molecular formula but different arrangement of atoms is said to be an isomer.
When 2,2-dimethylbutane reacts with chlorine in the presence of light gives three isomers that is
(3-chloro-2,2-dimethylbutane),
(1-chloro-2,2-dimethylbutane) and
(1-chloro-3,3-dimethylbutane).
In above case, the molecular formula of all isomers are same i.e.
but chlorine is arranged in different positions of carbon. Thus, results isomers.
The reaction is shown in the image.
Strongest reducing agents are in Group 1 . For example lithium. The strongest oxidising agents are in Group 7 , For example Fluorine.
