You can detect salt in water without tasting by measuring the density of the water. Place a glass of spring water and a glass of the suspected salt water on a balance scale and the heavier one contains salt. Other ways to test for salt in water is to put a drop of water on the end of a nail and place in a gas flame. If the water contains salt, the flame will turn a yellow/orange color.

What was one main point of Dalton's atomic theory?
sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

C. That atoms made up the smallest form of matter

Explanation:

The crux of the Dalton's atomic theory is that atoms are the smallest form of matter. He propositioned that atoms is an indivisible particle and beyond an atom, no form of matter exists.

Series of discoveries through time have greatly shaped the Dalton's atomic theory. The discovery of cathode rays by J.J Thomson in 1897 opened up the atom. Atoms were now seen to be made up of some negatively charged particles. Ernest Rutherford through his gold foil experiment proposed the nuclear model of the atom.

Explanation:

Matter undergoes two types of changes: physical changes and chemical changes.

A physical change is one that affects only the physical properties of a substance such as colour, size, shape, etc., and in which no new substances are formed. Physical changes are easily reversible.

Chemical changes are changes which affect the chemical characteristics and properties of a substance such as reactivity, acidity, basicity, etc., resulting in the formation of new substances.

The following changes below are categorized as either physical or chemical changes based on which of the properties of the substance is affected and whether new substances result or not.

A student is studying a sample of carbon dioxide gas inside a small syringe. At constant temperature the syringe has a volume of
Soloha48 [4]

The new pressure inside the syringe will be 1.25 atm

<h3>Gas law</h3>

At constant temperatures, the volume of a gas is inversely proportional to its pressure.

Thus:   P1V1 = P2V2

In this case, P1 = 3.0 atm, V1 = 89.6 mL, V2 = 215 mL

P2 = P1V1/V2

                         = 3 x 89.6/215

                              = 1.25 atm
