Answer:

One distinguishing feature between physical and chemical changes is that a physical change can be reverse or turn back to its original form, but chemical change cannot be return to its form because the material change.

To measure the speed of a car, we use miles per hour (miles/hour or mi/h or mph). To measure the rate of a reaction we use molar

arsen [322]

Answer:

Part A: 47.8 mi/h

Part B: 0.072 M/s

Part C: 0.144 M/s

Explanation:

Part A

The average speed or velocity (V) is the variation of the space divided by the variation of the time:

V = (241 - 2)/(8 -3)

V = 47.8 mi/h

Part B

As Part A, the average rate (r) of formation of I2 is the variation of the concentration divided by the variation of time:

r = (1.83 - 1.11)/(15 - 5)

r = 0.072 M/s

Part C

The rates of the substances are proportional of their number of moles (n) which are their coefficient, so:

rI2/nI2 = rHCl/nHCl

0.072/1 = rHCl/2

rHCl = 2*0.072

rHCl = 0.144 M/s

What is the difference between a mixture and compound

bonufazy [111]

A compound is made up of a single type of molecule. A mixture, on the other hand, is made up of different substances that can be distinguished from one another.
As an example:
Water (pure water) is a compound since it's only made up of water molecules
Seawater is a mixture since it is made up of water molecules and soluble salts

Iron(III) sulfide reacts with hydrochloric acid to produce hydrogen sulfide and iron(II) chloride. Wright the formula equation f

NeX [460]

Answer:

Fe2S3 + 4HCl —> 2H2S + 2FeCl2 + S

Explanation:

From the question, we were told that:

Iron(III) sulfide reacts with hydrochloric acid to produce hydrogen sulfide and iron(II) chloride.

Please note that elemental sulphur is produced along with this reaction. The equation for the reaction is given below:

Fe2S3 + HCl —> H2S + FeCl2 + S

Now, we can balance the equation as shown below:

There are 3 atoms of S on the left side of the equation and 2 atoms on the right. It can be balance by putting 2 in front of H2S as shown below:

Fe2S3 + HCl —> 2H2S + FeCl2 + S

Now, we have 4 atoms of H on the right side and 1atom on the left side. It can be balance by putting 4 in front of HCl as shown below:

Fe2S3 + 4HCl —> 2H2S + FeCl2 + S

Also, there are 4 atoms of Cl on the left side and 2 atoms on the right side. It can be balance by putting 2 in front of FeCl2 as shown below:

Fe2S3 + 4HCl —> 2H2S + 2FeCl2 + S

Now, we can see that the equation is balanced

How does the heat content of the reaction change in the process of photosynthesis when a glucose molecule is formed?

patriot [66]

In the process of photosynthesis, when a glucose molecule is formed, THE HEAT CONTENT OF THE REACTION INCREASES, THUS, THE VALUE OF Q IS POSITIVE.

There are two types of chemical reaction, these are exothermic and endothermic reaction. Exothermic reactions are those reactions that gives off heat when they are occurring while endothermic reactions are those reactions that absorb heat from their environment during the course of reaction. Photosynthesis is an endothermic reactions; it absorbs energy from the environment when it is occurring, thus, the heat content of the product is always more than that of the reactants. The heat content of compounds are represented by letter q. For photosynthesis, q is positive, because there is an increase in the heat content of the product [glucose] formed.
