I believe that it most likely would be C,
I believe the correct answer is D. Because object A on the pH scale reads pH=3. Which means it is more acidic in nature and thus possess a greater hydrogen or hydronium ion concentration than object B, which has a higher value on the pH scale. Object B would thus have a lower hydronium ion concentration than Object A.
Answer:
C The experiment shows that the red substance experienced a chemical change.
Explanation:
Apparently, adding heat caused the red substance to decompose into a gas and a metallic liquid. If it were simply a phase change, the original red substance could be expected to return when the temperature cooled. Because the substance apparently decomposed, it is clearly not an element. At no point in the experiment is there any evidence of a plasma being formed.
The observed decomposition is a chemical change.
Answer:
CO2 consists of individual molecules with one central carbon atom double bonded to two oxygen atoms. Silicon does not form double bonds with oxygen. CO2 is gas but SiO2 is a solid because SiO2 has a giant molecular structure. CO2 has a simple molecular structure, and because of this, CO2 is gas but SiO2 is solid at room temperature.
Answer:
The molecules absorb heat and acquire more kinetic energy.
Explanation:
In a solid, the solids only vibrate about their mean positions but do not translate. When energy is supplied to the molecule in the form of heat, the molecules vibrate faster. Eventually, they acquire sufficient energy to leave their mean positions and translate. Hence the solid crystal collapses.
When ice is heated, water molecules acquire sufficient kinetic energy to translate. The intermolecular bonds are gradually broken in the solid framework as heat is absorbed. The heat required for this is known as the latent heat of fusion.
The temperature remains constant until phase transition is over, then temperature rise resumes.
