By the object's composition and the acting agent to which factors the change of the substance or entity.
<span>The effect of physical property of matter on the object or substance can be better identified when the object doesn't change in composition or in nature. Unlike chemical property which has changed in its composition and atomic structure that was caused by chemical change or reaction due to an agent. Physical property is identified thru physical reactions or changes that has never changed the object in an atomic level, like cutting paper into smaller sizes. The aforementioned example illustrates physical proerty but being cut into smaller buts without changing the object from paper to any other substance, thus, its structure remain and its still called paper regardless of size, mass and texture. <span>

Because a physical property doesn't change the substance if you apply it. A chemical property will change its matter into a new substance.
Example of physical : cutting, because it will grow back to how it was
Example of chemical : flammability because if you burn it.....it wont go back to its original form.

What initially forms as pale blue and pale green precipitate when nh3 is added to cuh2o6?
andre [41]
The chemical equation that shows the reaction between nh3 and cuh206 is detailed as: [Cu(H2O)6]2+ (aq) + 2NH3(aq). —> [Cu(OH)2(H2O)4](s) + 2NH4 + (aq). the blue precipitate is Cu(OH)2(H2O)4 in which the blue color is caused by the Cu present in the solid.

The radioactive isotope of lead, Pb-209, decays at a rate proportional to the amount present at time t and has a half-life of 3.
Marina86 [1]

Answer:

Therefore it will take 7.66 hours for 80% of the lead decay.

Explanation:

The differential equation for decay is

\frac{dA}{dt}= kA

\Rightarrow \frac{dA}{A}=kdt

Integrating both sides

ln A= kt+c₁

\Rightarrow A= e^{kt+c_1}

\Rightarrow A=Ce^{kt}         [e^{c_1}=C]

The initial condition is A(0)= A₀,

\therefore A_0=Ce^{0.k}

\Rightarrow C=A_0

\therefore A=A_0e^{kt}.........(1)

Given that the Pb_{209}  has half life of 3.3 hours.

For half life A=\frac12 A_0 putting this in equation (1)

\frac12A_0=A_0e^{k\times3.3}

\Rightarrow ln(\frac12)= 3.3k     [taking ln both sides, ln \ e^a=a]

\Rightarrow k=\frac{ln \frac12}{3.3}

⇒k= - 0.21

Now A₀= 1 gram, 80%=0.8

and A= (1-0.8)A₀ = (0.2×1) gram = 0.2 gram

Now putting the value of k,A and A₀in the equation (1)

\therefore 0.2=1e^{(-0.21)\times t}

\Rightarrow e^{-0.21t}=0.2

\Rightarrow -0.21t= ln(0. 2)

\Rightarrow t= \frac{ln (0.2)}{-0.21}

⇒ t≈7.66

Therefore it will take 7.66 hours for 80% of the lead decay.

Use water as an example to contrast the properties of a compound with the elements from which it is composed
ahrayia [7]
Properties of a compound is completely different from their elements.

Water is composed by hydrogen and oxygen.

For example, the boiling point of oxygen is - 183 °C and hydrogen is - 253 °C, meanwhile, water has a boiling point of 100°C

Another example is when you put a burning wooden splint into oxygen, it burns more brightly. Put it in hydrogen, you may hear a "pop" sound, or even explode when large amount of hydrogen. But if u put a burning splint in water, it goes off.

A certain liquid X has a normal boiling point of 111.20 celsius and a boiling point elevation constant Kb=0.95. calculate the bo
Goshia [24]

Answer: the boiling point is = 137.325°C

Explanation:

From the formula: ∆Tb= Kb*m

From the question, Kb= 0.95, m= 27.5, T1= 111.2°C

Substitute into ∆Tb= Kb*m

∆Tb= 0.95*27.5= 26.125

∆Tb= T2-T1

Hence

T2- 111.2=26.125

T2= 26.125+ 111.2= 137.325°C
