Answer:

Explanation: Atoms are the building blocks of all matter. They consist of three sub-atomic particles: protons, neutrons and electrons. Protons and neutrons are found in the nucleus of an atom. Electrons are found in energy levels around the nucleus as shown in the diagram representing a carbon atom with 6 protons, 6 neutrons and 6 electrons.

Proton  Nucleus  1  +1

Neutron  Nucleus  1  0

Electron  Outside the nucleus  1/1840  -1

In chemistry we are particularly interested in electrons. As you will see later, this is because chemical reactions involve the rearrangement of electrons. Nuclei of atoms (protons and neutrons) usually remain unchanged (except in radioactive decay).

Electrons are arranged in atoms according to their energies. This is called the electronic structure or electronic configuration of the atom. A crude but still useful model says the electrons can be in different energy levels. Electrons in a particular energy level all have the same energy as one another. The lowest energy level can accommodate up to 2 electrons. The second level can accommodate up to 8 electrons. The third level can accommodate up to 18 electrons. The diagram shows the situation for a sulfur atom.

In a lab, silver nitrate,AgNO₃, is dissolved in water until no solid is observed in the container. Then, a solution of sodium ch
leva [86]

Answer:

The answer to your question is: A, C, E

Explanation:

After reading the information given, we can conclude that both reactants react to form a new solid product and another product that do not precipitate.

The reaction is:

                         AgNO₃ + NaCl   ⇒      AgCl  +  NaNO₃

a. Formation of a solid indicates that a chemical reaction occurred  This option is correct, precipitation indicates that a changed occurred in the solution due to a chemical reaction.

b. The initial disappearance of silver nitrate in water indicates a chemical reaction occurred  No, what is happing is that silver nitrate is dissolving in water, this process is a physical change because matter do not change its nature.

c. The color change of the solution indicates a chemical reaction occurred  This option is true, when a color appears suggest the formation of a new product.

d. A chemical reaction occurred when silver nitrate was added to water

This option is not correct, in this process silver nitrate is dissolving in water but it is not a chemical reaction because matter does not change is nature.

e. A chemical reaction occurred when the solutions were combined  This option is true because silver nitrate and sodium chloride react to form a new product (solid formation and change in color).

f. The lack of temperature change indicates a chemical reaction didn't occur This is false, some reactions do not need a change of color to happen.

Answer:

not valid

Explanation:

Expert judgment is a useful validation method to verify the reliability of an investigation that is defined as “an informed opinion of people with experience in the subject, who are recognized by others as qualified experts in it, and who can give information, evidence, judgments and assessments ”

After submitting an instrument for comparison to the consultation and expert opinion, it must meet two quality criteria: validity and reliability. The validity of content is often established based on two situations, one that concerns the design of a test and the other, the validation of an instrument subject to translation and standardization procedures to adapt it to different cultural meanings. It is here that the task of the expert becomes a fundamental task to eliminate irrelevant aspects, incorporate those that are essential and / or modify those that require it.
