Is a tree getting struck by lightning a physical or chemical change?

Chemistry
1 answer:
FrozenT [24]3 years ago
7 0

A tree getting struck by lightning, it is an example of a physical change.

It is so because when a tree getting struck by lightning, it encountered a strong force of power but no new substance is formed here. So it is a physical change, if it is a chemical change then a new substance must formed here. So when a tree getting struck by lightning, it is an example of a physical change.

Draw the structure(s) of all of the possible monochloro derivatives of 2,4-dimethylpentane, c7h15cl.
pishuonlain [190]

The monochloroderivatives will be obtained by substituting chemically non equivalent hydrogen with chlorine atom, one by one

So the possible monochloro derivatives of 2,4-dimethylpentane (figure 1) are shown in figure (2)

What role does the activation energy play in chemical reactions?
Tatiana [17]
The activation energy is the minimum amount of energy that particles must have in order for them to participate in a chemical reaction. During chemical reactions bonds are broken and formed. Particles must collide with sufficient energy in order for the initial bonds to be broken. The activation energy is that that initial minimum energy that the particles can have in order for the bonds to be broken. Stronger bonds would require more energy to be broken and therefore the activation energy for such would be higher.

An oily liquid with a cheesy, waxy odor like that of goats or other barnyard animals is caproic acid, a compound containing carb
Zinaida [17]

The empirical formula for the caproic acid, given the combustion analysis data is C₃H₆O

We'll begin bey obtaining the mass of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen in the compound. This is illustrated below:

How to determine the mass of C

  • Mass of CO₂ = 9.78 g
  • Molar mass of CO₂ = 44 g/mol
  • Molar of C = 12 g/mol
  • Mass of C =?

Mass of C = (12 / 44) × 9.78

Mass of C = 2.67 g

How to determine the mass of H

  • Mass of H₂O = 20.99 g
  • Molar mass of H₂O = 18 g/mol
  • Molar of H = 2 × 1 = 2 g/mol
  • Mass of H =?

Mass of H = (2 / 18) × 4

Mass of H = 0.44 g

How to determine the mass of O

  • Mass of compound = 4.30 g
  • Mass of C = 2.67 g
  • Mass of H = 0.44 g
  • Mass of O =?

Mass of O = (mass of compound) – (mass of C + mass of H)

Mass of O = 4.30 – (2.67 + 0.44)

Mass of O = 1.19 g

<h3>How to determine the empirical formula </h3>

The empirical formula of the compound can be obtained as follow:

  • C = 2.67 g
  • H = 0.44 g
  • O = 1.19 g
  • Empirical formula =?

Divide by their molar mass

C = 2.67 / 12 = 0.2225

H = 0.44 / 1 = 0.44

O = 1.19 / 16 = 0.074

Divide by the smallest

C = 0.2225 / 0.074 = 3

H = 0.44 / 0.0744 = 6

O = 0.074 / 0.074 = 1

Thus, the empirical formula of the compound is C₃H₆O
