Base's physical characteristics:
1) Bitter in taste
2) Soapy feeling (in shampoo or body wash)
3) pH>7

Base's chemical characteristics:
1) BASW ( Base reacts with Acid to form Salt and Water)
2) Ability to turn moist red litmus paper blue due to its basic properties. (pH>7)
3) IMPORTANTLY is that it dissociate Into OH- ions or hydroxide ion when dissolved in water! (For alkali)

Alkali is SOLUBLE salt. Most bases are insoluble.

elixir [45]

Answer:

If each element can be identified by its spectrum then the composition of an unknown star can be determined

Explanation:

The chemical nature of the elements is that they absorb specific wavelength of light depending on their atom. By spectral analysis of the spectrum of emitted light by a body, the body's composition can therefore be determined. As such in order to determine the composition of distant bodies such as planets, stars and other celestial bodies scientists usually make use of spectroscopy.

What is the boiling point of cyclohexane at 620 mmhg? can you show calculations?
Anton [14]

 Boiling point of cyclohexane at 620 mm hg?  

Standard atmospheric pressure is 760 mm Hg. Boiling point at 760 mm= 80.74˚C  

A liquid boils when its vapor pressure is equal to the atmospheric pressure. The vapor pressure of a liquid is proportional the absolute temperature of the liquid.  

As the atmospheric pressure decreases, less vapor pressure is needed to cause the liquid to boil. Less vapor pressure means lower temperature.  

The boiling point of cyclohexane at 620 mm Hg is less than 80.74˚C



TRY THAT OR THIS
