Which answer below correctly identifies the type of change and the explanation when magnesium comes into contact with hydrochlor

ic acid?
physical change because no color change occurred

physical change because the observation of a gas forming is evidence of a state change, which is
reversible

chemical change because a temperature change occurred, a solid disappeared, and a gas was
produced

chemical change because two substances were mixed, which always results in the formation of a
new substance

Answer:

A chemical change because a temperature change occurred, the solid disappeared and a gas was produces

Explanation:

Magnesium reacts with hydrochloric acid releasing energy, and leading to the formation of  magnesium chloride and hydrogen gas. This is represented by the equation below:

Mg₍s₎ + 2HCl₍aq)⇒ MgCl₂₍aq₎ + H₂₍g₎

Answer:

chemical change because a temperature change occurred, a solid disappeared, and a gas was  produced

Explanation:

In a chemical change there is a change in the chemical property of the reactant such that a new product is formed such as rusting of iron to form iron oxide. In a physical change there is phase change of the substance such as melting of ice.  

Mg is a metal that combines with the acid HCl to form the salt magnesium chloride, MgCl₂ and hydrogen gas, H₂. The chemical property of salts and gases are completely different from that of metal and acids.  

Mg + HCl = MgCl₂ + H₂

Does acid rain make new substances? Construct an argument that uses data from this investigation as evidence for your claim.
Yuri [45]

Answer:

Acid rain, like all acids, generates dissolution of chemical compounds, and reacts together with bases to be able to carry out oxide reduction reactions, which by deduction is very likely to form new substances as a result of the dissolution or acid erosion caused.

Explanation:

Acid rain is more likely to occur in large cities or large sources of pollution, since the excess of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere causes it to increase its partial pressure in a condensed way in the clouds, this is how then this cloud when being loaded with water and then generating the rain drags these masses of condensed carbon dioxide in the form of acid rain.

The degree of acidity is directly proportional to the amount of partial pressure of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.

Consider a galvanic cell in which Al 3 + Al3+ is reduced to elemental aluminum and magnesium metal is oxidized to Mg 2 + Mg2+ .
olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

Anode:

3Mg(s) ----------> 3Mg2+(aq) + 6e

Cathode:

2Al3+(aq) +6e ---------> 2Al(s)

Explanation:

Anode:

3Mg(s) ----------> 3Mg2+(aq) + 6e

Cathode:

2Al3+(aq) +6e ---------> 2Al(s)

Magnesium is more electro positive than aluminum hence it functions as the anode. Six electrons are lost/gained in the redox process as shown in the oxidation and reduction half reaction equations above. Magnesium is oxidized to magnesium ion while aluminum is reduced to elemental aluminum.

A 0.0884 M solution of a weak base has a pH of 11.79. What is the identity of the weak base?Weak Base KbEthylamine (CH3CH2NH2) 4
iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

The base must be ethylamine.

Explanation:

The pH of solution of a weak base gives us an idea about the Kb of the base.

pOH=14-pH

pOH=14-11.79=2.21

pOH=-log[OH^{-}]

[OH^{-}]=0.0062M

The relation between Kb and hydroxide ion concentration is:

Kb=\frac{[OH^{-}]^{2}}{[base]}

Kb=\frac{0.0062X0.0062}{0.0884}=4.34X10^{-4}

Thus the weak base must be ethylamine.

How would a student justify inferring that “indigenous” means “originating in a particular region”
denpristay [2]

In order to understand the meaning of the word "indigenous" , we have to break the word as

Indi + gen + ous

Here "Gen" means birth (like genesis: generation of something)

"Ous" means bearing some properties related to something

like marvelous : having property known as marvel.

Thus indigenous means having property of place where birth was taken

Thus it is originating in a particular region

The word root "gen" means "birth," and the suffix "-ous" means "having the quality of something."

1) Organic matter is recycled in an ecosystem by decomposers. Decomposers are organisms such as bacteria and fungi that break down the organic matter in the dead bodies of plants and animals. As the decomposers feed from the dead animals, they break down the organic compounds into simple nutrients.

2) By removing the jaguar from the food web, we are removing one of the predators. This can cause a surplus in both the population of the mammals ( rabbit and the other one) because there is not something that is actively eating and keeping the numbers at bay. Essentially, if you remove the jaguar you will mess up the loop, causing an increase of population that could possibly cause harm. Also, by taking the jaguar out of the food web, the decomposers would not be able to decompose fecal, animal carcasses, etc. because the jaguar is not actively killing something and furthering along this process. Hope this helps!
