<u>Answer:</u>

<em>The material we are talking about would be serpentine.</em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

This material is available in two colours green or white and it has a hardness that amounts to 2.5. This material has a luster that is nonmetallic and more of waxy in nature.  

This feature becomes Satiny when Nature of is material is Fibrous. This material is used as an insulating material against electricity as well as heat. The property of this mineral is very close to asbestos and is used when prevention from heat and electricity is required.

<u>Answer:</u>

<em>Halite</em>

<em></em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

Halite is the mineral  which is called as Rock salt shows cubic cleavage

Halite forms clear transparent crystals with perfect cubic cleavage. Halite is Table salt, the salt is an array of small cubic fragments, the result of halite’s crystal structure and perfect cubic cleavage

Cubic cleavage can be produced by breaking the sample. Halite is one of the few common minerals that, when broken into small fragments, will readily dissolve in water.

How much heat is required to vaporize 43.9 g of acetone at its boiling point?
bogdanovich [222]
The heat required to vaporize 43.9 g  of acetone  at its boiling point is calculated as  below

 the heat of vaporization of acetone at its boiling  point is  29.1 kj/mole

find the moles of  acetone = mass/molar mass
= 43.9g /58 g/mol =0.757 moles

heat (Q) = moles x heat of vaporization

= 29.1 kj/mole  x 0.757 moles = 22.03 kj

How many moles of oxygen are in 52.5 grams of oxygen gas?
adell [148]
An oxygen gas is a diatomic molecule which means that each molecule is composed of 2 atoms. Its symbol is O2. 

Each oxygen atom has a molar mass of 16 g/mol. The molar mass of oxygen gas is calculated below,
                         molar mass = 2 x (16 g/mol) = 32 g/mol

To determine the number of moles in 52.5 grams of oxygen, divide the given mass by the calculated molar mass.
 
                                 n = 52.5 grams / (32 gram/ mol)
                                     n = 1.64 moles

Thus, there are 1.64 moles of oxygen gas.
