Explanation:

Yes, a chemical reaction can happen with only one substance.

A typical example of such reaction is the radioactive decay.

Radioactive decay is the loss of elementary particles from an unstable nucleus, ultimately changing the unstable element into another more stable element. .

When radioactive elements are let alone, they decompose to form  stable harmless elements.

An example of radioactive decay is attached in the image below;

Answer:

No

Explanation:

A chemical reaction cannot happen with water alone. This is because, a chemical reaction must involve collision of particles from different reactants in order to give a product. No chemical specie can react with itself without some kind of interaction with another chemical specie which may or may not enter into the rate equation for that reaction.

Only nuclear reactions are spontaneous and involve only one reactant for spontaneous radioactive decay.

What is the engine piston displacement in liters of an engine whose displacement is listed as 490 in^3?
marishachu [46]

Answer:

490 in^3 = 8.03 L

Explanation:

Given:

The engine displacement = 490 in^3

= 490 in³

To determine the engine piston displacement in liters L;

(NOTE: Both in^3 (in³) and L are units of volume). Hence, to find the engine piston displacement in liters (L), we will convert in^3 to liters (L)

First, we will convert in³ to cm³

Since 1 in = 2.54 cm

∴ 1 in³ = 16.387 cm³

If 1 in³ = 16.387 cm³

Then 490 in³ =  (490 in³ × 16.387 cm³) / 1 in³ = 8029.63 cm³

∴ 490 in³ = 8029.63 cm³

Now will convert cm³ to dm³

(NOTE: 1 L = 1 dm³)

1 cm = 1 × 10⁻² m = 1 × 10⁻¹ dm

∴ 1 cm³ = 1 × 10⁻⁶ m³ = 1 × 10⁻³ dm³

If 1 cm³ = 1 × 10⁻³ dm³

Then, 8029.63 cm³ = (8029.63 cm³ × 1 × 10⁻³ dm³) / 1 cm³ = 8.02963 dm³

≅ 8.03 dm³

∴ 8029.63 cm³ = 8.03 dm³

Hence, 490 in³ = 8029.63 cm³ = 8.03 dm³

Since 1L = 1 dm³

∴ 8.03 dm³ = 8.03 L

Hence, 490 in³ = 8.03 L

What is the Molar mass of Cu2So4
almond37 [142]

Answer: Copper(I) sulfate, also known as cuprous sulfate and dicopper sulfate, is the chemical compound with the chemical formula Cu2SO4 and a molar mass of 223.15 g mol−1. It is an unstable compound as copper(I) compounds are generally unstable and is more commonly found in the CuSO4 state. It is white in color at room temperature and is water-soluble. Due to the low-stability of the compound there are currently not many applications to date.

Many angiosperms rely on animals for
slavikrds [6]
Many angiosperm species rely on the interaction between animals and their flowers for reproduction. As insects, birds or other animals move from one flower to another feeding on nectar, they commonly distribute pollen from flower to flower as they go which leads to plants being pollinated and seeds to be produced.
