I don’t know “which substance” are you talking about??
You can put the picture there so we can see.
Answer:
Explanation:
Firstly, we have to determine the mass of metal X. We can do that by interpreting the first and second statement mathematically.
Metal X can form 2 oxides (A and B).
A + B = 3g
The mass of oxygen in A is 0.72g and the mass of oxygen in B is 1.16g.
The mass of metal X in the two oxides will be the same because it's the same metal.
Thus, we represent the mass of the metal in the two oxides as 2X.
2X + 0.72 + 1.16 = 3
2X + 1.88 = 3
2X = 3 - 1.88
2X = 1.12
X = 0.56
<u>Thus, 0.56 g of the metal combines with 0.72g of oxygen in A and 1.16 g of oxygen in B.</u>
Thus, mass of metal (X) in 1g of oxygen in A is
0.56g ⇒ 0.72g
X ⇒ 1
X = 1 × 0.56/0.72
X = 0.78 g
Hence, 0.78g of the metal will combine with 1g of oxygen for A
Also, mass of metal (X) in 1g of oxygen in B is
0.56g ⇒ 1.16g
X ⇒ 1g
X = 1×0.56/1.16
X = 0.48 g
Thus, 0.48g of the metal will combine with 1g of oxygen for B
The answer is "c" because solidification or freezing is the term used for the process in which a liquid becomes a solid.<span> Freezing is an exothermic process that also is an example of a phase transition</span>
Its either C or D I’m stuck on this.
