Answer:

The combination of oxygen with other substances to produce new chemical products is called Oxidation.

Explanation:

Oxidation reactions are defined as,

In terms of Inorganic chemistry:

(i) Removal of Electrons:

Example: Mg → Mg²⁺ + 2 e⁻

(ii) Addition of Oxygen:

Example: 2 Mg + O₂ → 2 MgO

In terms of Organic chemistry:

(i) Addition of Electrons:

Example: Cl₂ + 2 e⁻ → 2 Cl⁻

(ii) Addition of Hydrogen:

Example: H₂CCH₂ + H₂ → H₃CCH₃

Calculate the energy, in joules, to heat two cubes (silver and copper), each with a volume of 10.0cm, from 15 C to 25 C

Julli [10]

Answer:

For Silver , The heat absorbed = 246.75 J

For Copper , The heat is = 343.42 J

Explanation:

The change in temperature is calculated by:

$\Delta T=T_{2}-T_{1}$

T2 = 25 C

T1 = 15 C

$\Delta T=25-15$

$\Delta T=10^{0}C$

The energy in Joules can be calculated using :

$q=mc\Delta T$

here , m = mass of the substance

c = the heat capacity

q = heat absorbed / released

We need to calculate the mass , In order to determine the value of "q".

Calculation for Silver :

The mass is calculated from the density of the element.

density of Silver = 10.5 g/ml (look at the table of density)

Volume of Cube = 10 cm^3 (given)

1 cm^3 = 1 mL

10 cm^3 = 10 mL

The mass can be calculated using the formula:

$mass = density\times Volume$

$mass = 10.5\times 10$

$mass = 105grams$

Insert the value of m , c, T in the equation.

for Silver the value of "c"= 0.235 J/gC (Look at the table)

$q=mc\Delta T$

$q=105\times 0.235\times 10$

$q=246.75J$

Calculation for Copper:

Again first calculate the mass of Copper.

Density of Copper = 8.92 g/ml

Volume = 10 mL

$mass = density\times Volume$

$mass = 8.92\times 10$

$mass = 89.2grams$

Insert the value of m , c, T in the equation.

for Silver the value of "c"= 0.385 J/gC (Look at the table)

$q=mc\Delta T$

$q=89.2\times 0.385\times 10$

$q=343.42J$

An object with a density of 3.7kg/m^3 has a mass of 2.5g. What's the volume in mL?

valentinak56 [21]

$d=3,7\frac{kg}{m^{3}}=3,7\frac{1000g}{1000000mL}=0,0037\frac{g}{mL}\\
m=2,5g\\\\
d=\frac{m}{V} \ \ |*V\\
dV=m \ \ |:d\\
V=\frac{m}{d}=\frac{2,5g}{0,0037\frac{g}{mL}}\approx 675,68mL$

If an ice cube melts at 0oC but water also freezes at 0oC, what is the difference between melting and freezing in terms of (a) t

zalisa [80]

The energy involved in melting in freezing is heat, At 0 degrees Celsius ice is at an equilibrium where the heat energy absorbed during melting (endothermic) and heat energy dispersed during freezing (exothermic). When ice melts its absorbs heat energy to change states, when water freezes to ice it dispersed heat energy so that the particles can move slow enough to be almost frozen, but still very small vibrations throughout the ice. Particles in the frozen state are packed tightly and help together by a crystal lattice and IMF's, liquid is free flowing with free floating particles that can move freely from one another particle.
