A scientist compares two samples of white powder. one powder was present at the beginning of an experiment. the other powder was

present at the end. she wants to determine whether a chemical reaction has occurred. she finds that neither sample bubbles or dissolves in water. she measures the mass and volume of the solids. sample one has a volume of 45 cm3 and a mass of 0.5
g. sample two has a volume of 65 cm3 and a mass of 1.3
g. what should the scientist conclude?

Answer. Chemical reaction had occurred and both the powders are different substances.

Explanation:

As density is an intensive property of the substance.Which means that  different substance have different densities.

Density = \frac{mass}{volume}

Density of powder 1, d_1=\frac{0.5g}{45cm^3}=0.11g/cm^3

Density of powder 2, d_2=\frac{1.3g}{65cm^3}=0.02g/cm^3

On comparing both the densities of the powders we can say that both the substances are different. So we can conclude that the chemical reaction had occurred.

I think that the scientist should conclude that there was no chemical reaction. There were no clear evidences that a reaction had occurred. The variation in the volume and the mass was not an indication whether a reaction happened. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.

Question 25———-A, YA are two isotopes of element A.
lakkis [162]

Answer:

Option C. 1

Explanation:

Step 1:

Determination of the Neutron of both isotopes. This is illustrated below.

For isotope y xA:

Mass number = y

Atomic number = x

Neutron =..?

Atomic number = proton number = x

Mass number = Proton + Neutron

y = x + Neutron

Rearrange

Neutron = y – x

For isotope (y + 1) xA:

Mass number = y + 1

Atomic number = x

Neutron =.?

Atomic number = proton number = x

Mass number = Proton + Neutron

y + 1 = x + Neutron

Rearrange

Neutron = y + 1 – x

Step 2:

Determination of the difference between the neutron number of both isotopes. This is illustrated below:

For isotope y xA:

Neutron number = y – x

For isotope (y + 1) xA:

Neutron number = y + 1 – x

Difference in neutron number

=> (y + 1 – x) – (y – x)

=> y + 1 – x – y + x

Rearrange

=> y – y + 1 – x + x

=> 1

Therefore, the difference in the neutron number of both isotopes is 1

Draw the Lewis dot structure for the compound gallium oxide with the chemical formula Ga2O3
Brut [27]

Answer:

Refer to your periodic table. Lewis dot structures are based off the number of valence electrons an atom has.

Looking at the compounds, we can see that Gallium has three valence electrons in its outer shell and oxygen has six. Oxygen and Gallium are going to share electrons with one another, making a V shape in their diagram.

One Oxygen would make a double bond with a Gallium, leaving one valence electron to another oxygen. That oxygen takes that Final electron. It now has 7 in its outer shell. The remaining Gallium and Oxygen do the same double bond as the one before, leaving the 7 valence electron oxygen with one more electron.
