How do we know that salt mixing with water is not a chemical change?

taurus [48]

Explanation:

In contrast, dissolving a covalent compound like sugar does not result in a chemical reaction. When sugar is dissolved, the molecules disperse throughout the water, but they do not change their chemical identity.

An ideal gas in a sealed container has an initial volume of 2.50 L. At constant pressure, it is cooled to 21.00 ∘C, where its fi

goblinko [34]

<u>Answer:</u> The initial temperature of the system comes out to be 147 °C

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the initial temperature of the system, we use the equation given by Charles' Law. This law states that volume of the gas is directly proportional to the temperature of the gas at constant pressure.

Mathematically,

$\frac{V_1}{T_1}=\frac{V_2}{T_2}$

where,

$V_1\text{ and }T_1$ are the initial volume and temperature of the gas.

$V_2\text{ and }T_2$ are the final volume and temperature of the gas.

We are given:

$V_1=2.50L\\T_1=?K\\V_2=1.75L\\T_2=25^oC=(25+273)K=294K$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\frac{2.50L}{T_1}=\frac{1.75L}{294K}\\\\T_1=420K$

Converting the temperature from kelvins to degree Celsius, by using the conversion factor:

$T(K)=T(^oC)+273$

$420=T(^oC)+273\\T(^oC)=147^oC$

Hence, the initial temperature of the system comes out to be 147 °C
