Answer:

Pure substances are substances that are made up of only one kind of particles and have a fixed or constant structure.

Examples:

All elements are mostly pure substances. A few of them include gold, copper, oxygen, chlorine, diamond, etc. Compounds such as water, salt or crystals, baking soda amongst others are also grouped as pure substances.

A pure substance refers to an element or a compound that has no component of another compound or element. Pure substances are made of only one type of atom or molecule. Hydrogen gas and pure iron are examples of pure substances. Hydrogen consists of hydrogen atoms only while iron consists of only iron atoms. Mixing two pure substances results in a mixture. To separate the two, scientists use a method known as filtration. Mixtures can either be homogeneous or heterogeneous. The measure used to determine how pure a substance may be called purity. Besides hydrogen and iron, other pure substances include gold, diamonds, sugar, and baking soda.

2. How many grams of water can be heated from 20.0 oC to 75oC using 12500.0 Joules?
kenny6666 [7]

Answer;

  = 0.054 kg or 54 g

Explanation;

Using the equation; Q = mcΔT where Q is the quantity of heat transferred, m is the mass, c is specific heat of the substance, ΔT is delta T, the change in temperature.  

ΔT = 75 - 20 = 55 C.  

Solve the equation for m  

m = Q/ cΔT

Mass = 12500 / (55 × 4200)

        = 0.054 kg or 54 g

Predict: In each "Climate type" box, Highlight the condition you think will lead to the fastest weathering for the given weather
yanalaym [24]

Answer:

Frost Wedging - Hot and dry

Clay Formation - Cold and Wet

Dissolving - Cold, and dry

Explanation:

The frost wedging happen when the climatic condition is hot and dry. The dry weather compensates the heat and the rock wedging happens quickly. For clay formation the weather has to be cold and wet. The cold weather will make the sand indulge with rock particles resulting in the clay formation.

Silicon carbide (SiC) is an important ceramic material made by reacting sand (silicon dioxide, SiO2) with powdered carbon at a h
makkiz [27]

Answer:

Percent yield of SiC is 77.0%.

Explanation:

Balanced reaction: SiO_{2}+3C\rightarrow SiC+2CO

Molar mass of SiC = 40.11 g/mol

Molar mass of SiO_{2} = 60.08 g/mol

So, 100.0 kg of SiO_{2} = \frac{100.0\times 10^{3}}{60.08} moles of SiO_{2} = 1664 moles of SiO_{2}

According to balanced equation, 1 mol of SiO_{2} produces 1 mol of SiC

Therefore, 1664 moles of SiO_{2} produce 1664 moles of SiC

Mass of 1664 moles of SiC = (1664\times 40.11)g = 66743g = 66.74 kg (4 sig. fig.)

Percent yield of SiC = [(actual yield of SiC)/(theoretical yield of SiC)]\times 100%

                                 = \frac{51.4kg}{66.74kg}\times 100 %

                                 = 77.0%
