Can a window pane be considered a mineral?

Chemistry

hichkok12 [17]3 years ago

Answer:

Explanation:

The glass (which does not crystallize even though it is accepted) of a window is NOT a mineral, since it is neither a substance of natural origin (although it is manufactured from natural components) nor does it have a defined crystalline structure, that is, the atoms they are not arranged in an orderly and regular way along axes and planes forming flat faces that keep a symmetry.

Remember that a mineral is defined as a solid, inorganic, homogeneous substance, of natural origin, with a crystalline structure and a determined and well-defined chemical composition within narrow margins and that has regular and characteristic physical properties.

Explanation: No, glass is not a mineral. ... Definable chemical composition: SiO2 *Actually, most industrially-produced glass is not pure silica, but having impurities is still a definable chemical composition so this part of the definition is ok. Orderly arrangement of atoms in a lattice: NO.

Slicing an average loaf of bread gives 13 medium thickness slices. Each slice of bread is to be coated with 0.0500 oz of mayonna
AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

36 loaves of bread and 18.48 ounces of mayonnaise are needed to make all of the sandwiches.

Explanation:

Number of slices of ham = 231

Given that each sandwich has 1 slice of ham.

Then 231 slices of ham will be in :

1\times 231 =231 sandwiches

A single sandwich is made up of 2 bread slices , Then bread slices in 231 sandwiches will be :

231\times 2=462

Each bread slice is applied with 0.0500 ounce of mayonnaise.

Then 462 bread slices will have :

462\times 0.0500 ounces=18.48 Oz

1 bread loaf = 13 bread slices

Then breads loves in 462  bread slices :

\frac{462}{13}=35.54\approx 36

36 loaves of bread and 18.48 ounces of mayonnaise are needed to make all of the sandwiches.

E)¿Cuántos átomos de oxigeno hay en la molécula de glucosa, al reaccionar 12moleculas de agua?
elena55 [62]

Answer:

12 átomos de oxígeno hay presentes

Explanation:

Basados en la reacción:

6CO₂ + 6H₂O → C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂

<em>6 moles de agua producen 1 mol de glucosa</em>

<em />

Si reaccionan 12 moleculas de agua, se producirán:

12 moleculas H₂O * (1 mol C₆H₁₂O₆ / 6 mol H₂O) =

2 moléculas de glucosa se producen.

Como cada molécula de glucosa tiene 6 átomos de oxígeno:

2 moléculas C₆H₁₂O₆ * (6 átomos Oxígeno / 1 molécula C₆H₁₂O₆) =

<h3>12 átomos de oxígeno hay presentes</h3>

Describe the steps used to create Lewis dot structures to represent covalent bonds.
antiseptic1488 [7]
1)Identify the atoms that are participating in a covalent bond.
2)Draw each atom by using its element symbol. The number of valence electrons is shown by placing up to two dots on each side of the element symbol, with each dot representing a single valence electron.
3)Predict the number of covalent bonds each atom will make using the octet rule.
4)Draw the bonding atoms next to each other, showing a single covalent bond as either a pair of dots or a line representing a shared valence electron pair. If the molecule forms a double or triple bond, use two or three lines to represent the shared electron pairs, respectively.

What will happen if a peeled banana is put on a hotplate? Will it undergo a physical or a chemical change?
FinnZ [79.3K]
I would say physical, because a physical change is affecting the form of a chemical substance, but not it's chemical makeup.
