Chemical properties describe how things undergo chemical reactions, while physical properties describe how things behave when they're not undergoing reactions.

In the case of melting a metal, the melted metal continues to be the same material - just in a liquid rather than a solid form.  As a result, melting (and all phase changes, for that matter) is a physical change and the ability of the metal to melt at 450 degrees is a physical property.

If you can continue to add more solute to a solution, the solution is said to be ____________________
Savatey [412]

Answer:

Unsaturated

Explanation:

In order to successfully answer this question, we need to think about the solubility of solutes in specific solvents, typically water.

  • A solution is considered to be unsaturated if at a given temperature and volume of water we may still add more solute and it will dissolve;
  • A solution is considered to be saturated if at a given temperature and volume of water we have a maximum amount of solute dissolved and trying to add more solute results in undissolved crystals that can be seen in the solution;
  • A solution is considered to be oversaturated (or supersaturated) i at a given temperature and volume of water we exceeded the maximum amount of a solute that could possibly dissolve.

In this case, if we can continue to add more solute to a solution and the solute dissolves, we may state that we are still at a point in which we have an unsaturated solution.

You have 40 g of a radioisotope. If the half-life of this radioisotope is 4 days, how many grams will remain after 12 days?
anygoal [31]
With reference to radioactive material, half-life is the time required to 50% depletion of initial amount of material. 

Given: Initial amount of radioactive material = 40 g
Half life = 4 days.

Therefore, After 4 days, amount of compound left = 40/2 = 20 g
After 8 days, i.e 2 half-life, amount of compound left = 20/2 = 10 g
Finally after 12 days, i.e. 3 half-life, amount of compound left = 10/2 = 5 g

Thus, 5 <span>grams will remain after 12 days</span>
