The tendency to combust is a chemical property. O True O False

Chemistry
1 answer:
erastova [34]4 years ago
4 0

Answer:

The correct option is;

True

Explanation:

Combustion is a chemical reaction between components of a combustion reaction which are;

1) A fuel

2) An oxidizing agent

The oxidizing agent or oxidant in a combustion reaction consist mainly of oxygen.

A combustion reaction is an oxidation and reduction (redox) heat evolving (exothermic) reaction that takes place at high temperatures and produces smoke which consists of gaseous mixture of chemicals and sometimes very small solid particles

An exothermic reaction can be classed either as rapid, spontaneous, or explosive

A spontaneous exothermic reaction is one that begins on its own in atmospheric conditions and room temperature as the heat required to begin the reaction is produced by the initial oxidation of the reacting fuel

Example of a substance that undergoes spontaneous oxidation reaction is white phosphorus.

How can one establish whether a liquid sample extracted from a plant is pure<br>​
Assoli18 [71]
The most accurate means of determining the purity of a substance is through the use of analytical methods. These methods, widely used in different industries, mostly involve chemical analysis, which can pinpoint the presence, identity and amount of impurities in the sample. The most simple chemical methods include gravimetry and titration. There are also the more advanced light-based or spectroscopic methods, such as UV-VIS spectroscopy, nuclear magnetic resonance and infrared spectroscopy. Chromatographic methods, such as gas chromatography and liquid chromatography, can also be used. Other methods used in testing the purity include mass spectroscopy, capillary electrophoresis, optical rotation and particle size analysis.

When calcium chloride is dissolved in water, to which end of the adjacent water molecules will a calcium ion be attracted? the o
Lesechka [4]
Ca ionises into Ca^2+. Ca^2+ will be attracted to O^2- ions in the water, since opposite charges attract. (Hydrogen in water forms H^+)

What is the concentration of a solution prepared by placing 20. mL of 0.12 M K2S in a graduated cylinder and pouring water until
MAVERICK [17]

Answer: 0.024 M

Explanation:

According to the neutralization law,

M_1V_1=M_2V_2

where,

M_1 = molarity of stock solution = 0.12 M

V_1 = volume of stock solution = 20.0 ml

M_2 = molarity of diluted solution = ? M

V_2 = volume of diluted solution = 100.0 ml

Putting in the values we get:

0.12M\times 20.0=M_2\times 100.0

M_2=0.024

Therefore, the concentration of the resulting solution is 0.024 M.

What stresses will shift the reaction to increase the products
AveGali [126]

Answer:

Change in molarity, temperature, volume/pressure depending on the conditions given

Explanation:

It really depends on the type of a reaction, however, we may apply general trends and see every possibility:

  • if we increase the concentration of products, then, according to the principle of Le Chatelier, the equilibrium will shift toward the formation of products;
  • if we have an endothermic reaction, increasing heat will lead a shift to the right and toward formation of products, since heat might be considered a reactant as well;
  • if we have an exothermic reaction, removing heat/decreasing temperature will lead to an increase in products, as we're removing one of our products, heat, and system will try to rebuild the amount of heat lost forming the other products as a result as well;
  • if we have gaseous substances in a reaction, an increase in pressure will shift the equilibrium to the right if we have a greater amount in moles of reactant gases compared to products, this is also known as a decrease in volume;
  • if we have gaseous substances in a reaction, a decrease in pressure will shift the equilibrium to the right if we have a greater amount in moles of product gases compared to reactants, this is also known as an increase in volume.
