Answer:

The student conclude that the sample of benzoic acid is impure.

Explanation:

The observed melting point of benzoic acid when a student melts his/her sample is low than the actual value. The reason for this might be:

(a) <u>The most probable reason is that the sample is impure. Impurities in the sample leads to lowering the value of the melting point.</u> The reason for the phenomenon is that when impurity is present in the compound, the pattern of the crystal lattice disturbs and thus it less amount of heat is require to break the lattice.

(b) There may be some experimental errors like:

  1. Non-uniform heating of the sample
  2. The sample is not tightly filled in the capillary if the student is    following Kjeldahl's flask method.
  3. If the student is using melting point machine, there there might be some instrumental errors.

<u>The student conclude that the sample is impure.</u>

Choose the molecular compound among the substances listed below.
agasfer [191]

Answer: Among the listed substances XeCl_{4} is the molecular compound.

Explanation:

A chemical compound formed by the chemical combination of two or more non-metals is called a molecular compound or covalent compound.

For example, Xe and Cl are non-metals. The compound formed by them is XeCl_{4} which is a molecular compound.

A molecular compound is formed by sharing of atoms between the combining atoms.

Whereas NaF, MnCl_{2} and CaO are all ionic compounds as they are formed by chemical combination of a metal and a non-metal.

Thus, we can conclude that among the listed substances XeCl_{4} is the molecular compound.

Except for the reaction between iron and sulfur, none of the reactions in this
Sloan [31]

he total number of each of the atoms on the left and the right are the same thus the reaction equation is balanced.

<h3>What is the law of conservation of mass?</h3>

The law of conservation of mass states that, mass can neither be created nor destroyed. In view of the law of conservation of mass, the total mass of the reactants on the left-hand side must be the same as the total mass of products at the right hand side.

Thus is the total mass of the reactants and the products are not the same, it then follows that the reaction does not demonstrate the law of conservation of mass. In this case, the total number of each of the atoms on the left and the right are the same thus the reaction equation is balanced.

Active transport requires chemical energy. True False
guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

The answer is true

Explanation:

This process is called passive transport or facilitated diffusion, and does not require energy. The solute can move "uphill," from regions of lower to higher concentration. This process is called active transport, and requires some form of chemical energy.
