Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
A change that does not lead to any difference in chemical composition of a substance is known as a physical change.
For example, shape, size, mass, volume, density, boiling point, etc of a substance are all physical properties.
Boiling of water is a physical change as it leads to conversion of liquid state of water into vapor state.
On the other hand, changes that lead to bring change in chemical composition of a substance is known as a chemical change.
For example, exploding dynamite, rotting cheese etc are all chemical changes.
Thus, we can conclude that the statement no, boiling water is a physical change is true when water is heated, bubbles form in the water. This evidence is not of a chemical reaction.
Answer:
Explanation:
Magnesium when it oxidizes has a valence of 2.
Oxygen, when it mixes with something, has a valence of - 2
So Mg and O2 will form something, but what? The answer is MgO
Mg + O2 ===> MgO
To balance this equation, you need 2 Magnesiums on the right and 2 Oxygens also on the right. The left will need a two Magnesiums.
The balanced equation will be
2Mg + O2 ====> 2MgO
The Earth's core is the part of Earth in the middle of our planet. It has a solid inner coreand a liquid outer core.
