You get a can of soda from the vending machine and your “friend” maliciously shakes it when you’re not looking. You open the can

of soda and it fizzes all over your desk, making you regret you had brought it to lab in the first place. Is this a chemical change or a physical change? Explain your answer.

Physical Change because a new substance was not created and if it was a chemical change, a new substance would have to be created.
Galina-37 [17]3 years ago
3 0

Answer: physical change

Explanation:

A physical change is defined as a change in which there is alteration in shape, size etc. No new substance gets formed in these reactions.

Example: Melting of ice

A chemical change is defined as a change in which a change in chemical composition takes place. A new substance is formed in these reactions.

Example: Corrosion of iron

It is given that the soda can fizzes when it is opened, which means the gas which has been dissolved in soda under high pressures now comes out of the soda due to low pressure. Thus as there is no chemical reaction involved here, this is a physical change.

To minimize the sharp ph shift that occurs when a strong acid is added to a solution
adell [148]
To minimize the sharp pH shift that occurs when a strong acid is added to a solution, IT IS PRACTICAL TO ADD A WEAK BASE.
When a strong acid is added to a solution, it usually brings about a sharp change in the pH of the concerned solution. To avoid this, one can add a  weak base to the solution first. The weak base will serves as a buffer for the strong acid and prevents the solution from experiencing sharp pH variations.

What does it mean for a element of a group to have a order?
lisabon 2012 [21]

In group theory, a branch of mathematics, the term order is used in two unrelated senses:

<span><span>The order of a group is its cardinality, i.e., the number of elements in its set. Also, the order, sometimes period, of an element a of a group is the smallest positive integer m such that <span>am = e</span> (where e denotes the identity element of the group, and am denotes the product of m copies of a). If no such m exists, a is said to have infinite order.</span><span>The ordering relation of a partially or totally ordered group.</span></span>

This article is about the first sense of order.

The order of a group G is denoted by ord(G) or | G | and the order of an element a is denoted by ord(a) or | a |.
