Answer:

B. Decomposition is a chemical change because the organism is broken down into new substances.

Explanation:

Decomposition require the disintegration of a substance into two or more different substances. A decomposition reaction is a chemical reaction that involves the addition of energy to begin with. When Plants and Animals die their bodies are decomposed and absorbed by organisms such as bacteria or fungi.

Intermolecular forces between particles are​
WITCHER [35]

Explanation:

Intermolecular forces hold multiple molecules together and determine many of a substance's properties. All of the attractive forces between neutral atoms and molecules are known as van der Waals forces, although they are usually referred to more informally as intermolecular attraction.

Intermolecular forces are the forces of attraction or repulsion which act between neighboring particles (atoms, molecules, or ions ). These forces are weak compared to the intramolecular forces, such as the covalent or ionic bonds between atoms in a molecule.

How many moles of \ce{CO2}COX
inn [45]

Answer:

4.5 moles of carbon dioxide

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of CH₄   = 72g

Unknown:

number of moles of CO₂ produced  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, let us write the reaction equation first;

            CH₄     +    2O₂     →    CO₂    +   2H₂O

Now we know that O₂ is in excess and CH₄ is the limiting reactant that will determine the extent of the reaction.

Let us find the number of moles of   CH₄ ;

                Number of moles  = \frac{mass}{molar mass}

                                  molar mass of  CH₄ = 12 + 4  = 16g/mol

              Number of moles  = \frac{72}{16}   = 4.5moles

From the reaction equation;

                     1 mole of methane produced 1 mole of carbon dioxide

       4.5 moles of methane will produce 4.5 moles of carbon dioxide

When you have a free metal ion, how do the energies of these orbitals relate to one another (are they the same, different, etc.)
7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

The energy of the orbitals are the same

Explanation:

For a free metal ion, all the d-orbitals are of the same energy. The five d-orbitals are said to be five fold degenerate in the free metal ion. Hence all the d-orbitals will possess the same energy irrespective of which one is first filled.

In an octahedral or tetrahedral crystal field, the d-orbitals will loose their degeneracy and become different in energy based on their orientation towards the ligands.
