Answer: Option (C) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A physical substance that occupies space and has mass is called matter. Every matter possesses some chemical and physical properties.

Chemical property is the property which occurs when there is change in chemical composition of matter. Whereas physical property is the property which occurs when there is change in the appearance of matter.

The chemical properties of matter does not depend on temperature, therefore, option (a) is not correct.

Every matter posses some mass therefore, option (b) is also not correct.

It is possible for matter to have similar chemical properties and different physical properties. For example, a very small piece of sodium and a very large piece of sodium will react chemically in the same manner whereas their physical property, in this case is the size, is different. Therefore, option (c) is correct.

Every matter has some chemical and physical properties. Thus, it is not possible that matter can have only physical property and no chemical property. Hence, option (d) is also not correct.

Thus, we can conclude that the statement it is possible for matter to have similar chemical properties and different physical properties is true about matter.

Part A

Roman55 [17]

These are two questions and two answers

Question 1.

Answer:

7.33 × 10 ⁻³ c

Explanation:

1) Data:

a) m = 9.11 × 10⁻³¹ kg

b) λ = 3.31 × 10⁻¹⁰ m

c) c = 3.00 10⁸ m/s

d) s = ?

2) Formula:

The wavelength (λ), the speed (s), and the mass (m) of the particles are reltated by the Einstein-Planck's equation:

λ = h / (m.s)

h is Planck's constant: h= 6.626×10⁻³⁴J.s

3) Solution:

Solve for s:

s = h / (m.λ)

Substitute:

s = 6.626×10⁻³⁴J.s / ( 9.11 × 10⁻³¹ kg × 3.31 × 10⁻¹⁰ m) = 2.20 × 10 ⁶ m/s

To express the speed relative to the speed of light, divide by c = 3.00 10⁸ m/s

s = 2.20 × 10 ⁶ m/s / 3.00 10⁸ m/s = 7.33 × 10 ⁻³

Answer: s = 7.33 × 10 ⁻³ c

Question 2.

Answer:

2.06 × 10 ⁻³⁴ m.

Explanation:

1) Data:

a) m = 45.9 g (0.0459 kg)

b) s = 70.0 m/s

b) λ = ?

2) Formula:

Macroscopic matter follows the same Einstein-Planck's equation, but the wavelength is so small that cannot be detected:

λ = h / (m.s)

h is Planck's constant: h= 6.626×10⁻³⁴J.s

3) Solution:

λ = h / (m.s)

Substitute:

λ = 6.626×10⁻³⁴J.s / ( 0.0459 kg × 70.0 m/s) = 2.06 × 10 ⁻³⁴ m

As you see, that is tiny number and explains why the wave nature of the golf ball is undetectable.

Answer: 2.06 × 10 ⁻³⁴ m.

How does H2O represent compounds

Leno4ka [110]

Answer:

Compound consist of molecules that are identical, this molecules are made up of atoms of two or more elements. An element is identified based on the atomic property of the element. Water as a compound is composed of 2 Hydrogen atom to 1 oxygen atom and the molecule is H2O.

Which highly reactive gas was probably absent from the Earth's primitive atmosphere? O2 (oxygen gas) water vapor methane carbon

rosijanka [135]

Oxygen gas was most likely absent from Earth's primitive atmosphere. The current theory is that the Earth's early atmosphere was composed of mainly carbon dioxide and methane due to the high volcanic activity. Cyanobacteria and their use of photosynthesis was what caused earth's atmosphere to become oxygen enriched.
I hope that helps.

Iron (III) oxide and hydrogen react to form iron and water, like this: Fe 03(s)+3H9)2Fe(s)+3HO) At a certain temperature, a chem

belka [17]

The question is incomplete, here is the complete question:

Iron (III) oxide and hydrogen react to form iron and water, like this:

$Fe_2O_3(s)+3H_2(g)\rightarrow 2Fe(s)+3H_2O(g)$

At a certain temperature, a chemist finds that a 8.9 L reaction vessel containing a mixture of iron(III) oxide, hydrogen, Iron, and water at equilibrium has the following composition.

Compound Amount

Fe₂O₃ 3.95 g

H₂ 4.77 g

Fe 4.38 g

H₂O 2.00 g

Calculate the value of the equilibrium constant Kc for this reaction. Round your answer to 2 significant digits.

Answer: The value of equilibrium constant for given equation is $1.0\times 10^{-4}$

Explanation:

To calculate the molarity of solution, we use the equation:

$\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{Mass of solute}}{\text{Molar mass of solute}\times \text{Volume of solution (in L)}}$

For hydrogen gas:

Given mass of hydrogen gas = 4.77 g

Molar mass of hydrogen gas = 2 g/mol

Volume of the solution = 8.9 L

Putting values in above expression, we get:

$\text{Molarity of hydrogen gas}=\frac{4.77}{2\times 8.9}\\\\\text{Molarity of hydrogen gas}=0.268M$

For water:

Given mass of water = 2.00 g

Molar mass of water = 18 g/mol

Volume of the solution = 8.9 L

Putting values in above expression, we get:

$\text{Molarity of water}=\frac{2.00}{18\times 8.9}\\\\\text{Molarity of water}=0.0125M$

For the given chemical equation:

$Fe_2O_3(s)+3H_2(g)\rightarrow 2Fe(s)+3H_2O(g)$

The expression of equilibrium constant for above equation follows:

$K_{eq}=\frac{[H_2O]^3}{[H_2]^3}$

Concentration of pure solids and pure liquids are taken as 1 in equilibrium constant expression.

Putting values in above expression, we get:

$K_{c}=\frac{(0.0125)^3}{(0.268)^3}\\\\K_{c}=1.0\times 10^{-4}$

Hence, the value of equilibrium constant for given equation is $1.0\times 10^{-4}$
