The question is incomplete, this is the complete question;

In the process of attempting to characterize a substance, a chemist makes the following observations. Which are physical properties and which are chemical properties?

(a) The substance is a silvery white, lustrous metal.

(b) The substance melts at 649 ∘C

(c) The substance boils at 1105 ∘C.

(d) The density of the substance at 20 ∘C is 1.738 g/cm³.

(e) The substance burns in air, producing an intense white light.

(f) The substance reacts with chlorine to give a brittle white solid.

(g) The substance can be pounded into thin sheets or drawn into wires.

(h) The substance is a good conductor of electricity.

Answer:

(a) Physical

(b) Physical

(c) Physical

(d) Physical

(e) Chemical

(f) Chemical

(g) Physical

(h) Physical

Explanation:

(a) The substance is a silvery white, lustrous metal - is appearance which is physical.

(b) The substance melts at 649 ∘C metling point is a physical measurement

(c) The substance boils at 1105 ∘C boiling point is a physical measurement

(d) The density of the substance at 20 ∘C is 1.738 g/cm3 how heavy a substance is,is physical.

(e) The substance burns in air, producing an intense white light. Burning is a chemical change. It is a reaction of a substance with oxygen

(f) The substance reacts with chlorine to give a brittle white solid. This is a chemical reaction as the question says.

(g) The substance can be pounded into thin sheets or drawn into wires. Ductility is a physical change, the substance remains chemically unchanged

(h) The substance is a good conductor of electricity. Any conductivity is physical, the substance remains chemically unchanged

P4O10 -> 4P+5O2 How many moles of phosphorus would be produced if 5.3 mol of P4O10 reacted?

viktelen [127]

Answer:

21.2 moles.

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, for the given chemical reaction, we can see there is a 1:4 mole ratio between tetraphosphorous decaoxide and phosphorous; therefore, the following proportional factor provides the requested moles of phodphorous:

$n_P=5.3molP_4O_{10} *\frac{4molP}{1molP_4O_{10}} \\\\n_P=21.2molP$

Best regards!

All the substances listed below are fertilizers that contribute nitrogen to the soil.

kvv77 [185]

Answer:

Ammonia is the richest source of nitrogen on a mass percentage basis because it has 82.35% of nitrogen by mass.

Explanation:

Percentage of element in compound :

$=\frac{\text{number of atoms}\times text{Atomic mass}}{\text{molar mas of compound}}\times 100$

(a) Urea, $(NH_2)_2CO$

Molar mass of urea = 60 g/mol

Atomic mass of nitrogen = 14 g/mol

Number of nitrogen atoms = 2

$N\%=\frac{2\times 14 g/mol}{60 g/mol}\times 100=46.67\%$

(b) Ammonium nitrate, $NH_4NO_3$

Molar mass of ammonium nitrate = 80 g/mol

Atomic mass of nitrogen = 14 g/mol

Number of nitrogen atoms = 2

$N\%=\frac{2\times 14 g/mol}{80 g/mol}\times 100=35.00\%$

(c) Nitric oxide, NO

Molar mass of nitric oxide = 30 g/mol

Atomic mass of nitrogen = 14 g/mol

Number of nitrogen atoms = 1

$N\%=\frac{1\times 14 g/mol}{30 g/mol}\times 100=46.67\%$

(d) Ammonia, $NH_3$

Molar mass of ammona = 17 g/mol

Atomic mass of nitrogen = 14 g/mol

Number of nitrogen atoms = 1

$N\%=\frac{1\times 14 g/mol}{17 g/mol}\times 100=82.35\%$

Ammonia is the richest source of nitrogen on a mass percentage basis because it has 82.35% of nitrogen by mass.

Identify two ways that temperature plays a role in chemical changes.

sergejj [24]

Answer:

Increasing the temperature will cause chemical changes to occur faster. Decreasing the temperature, causes the particles to lose energy which causes them to move around less and slower. The less they move, the less collisions occur, and the less reactions occur between the chemicals = slower reaction rate.
