How do properties, such as Density, help us to classify and identify matter?

Chemistry
1 answer:
kumpel [21]3 years ago
4 0

Density can be defined in terms of the mass of a substance present in a certain volume.

i.e. Density = Mass/ volume

It helps classify and identify matter due to the following reasons:

1) Density is an intensive property. For a given substance the density will remain the same irrespective of the amount in which it is present.

For example: The density of Aluminum (Al) = 2.7 g/cm3. This value is a constant at a certain temperature and pressure. Therefore, the density will remain the same for 1 kilogram or 1 mg of Al

2) Different elements/compounds have different values of densities which is characteristic of that substance

How can you tell if a chemical equation is balanced
k0ka [10]

Answer:

A chemical equation is balanced when the number of each kind of atom is the same on both sides of the reaction.

Explanation:

    The law of conservation of matter (except in nuclear reactions) indicates that atoms can neither be created or destroyed.

    The number of atoms that are in the  reactants must be the same as the number of the atoms that are in the product.

    The number and types of molecules can (and will) change. The atoms that make up the molecules are rearranged but the number and kinds of atoms stay the same.

What is the mass of aluminum oxide (101.96 g/mol) produced from 1.74 g of manganese(iv) oxide (86.94 g/mol)?
NemiM [27]

the mass of aluminum oxide (101.96 g/mol) produced from 1.74 g of manganese(iv) oxide (86.94 g/mol) is 1.36g

The reaction is 3 MnO2 + 4 Al ------ 2Al2o3+ Mn

3 mole of manganese oxide give 2 moles of aluminum oxide so by the reaction n( MnO2)/3 =n(al203)2

the formula is n= mass/M so, now substituting values

m (Al2O3)= m(MnO2) X 2 X M (Al2O3) / M(MnO2 X3

so, by substituting values, 2 X101.96 X1.74g / 3 X 86.94 =1.36g

so mass of aluminum oxide obtained = 1.36g

What happens to the speed of motion of the particles of a gas when a certain volume of the gas is heated at constant pressure? E
Vitek1552 [10]
As the gas is heated, the particles will begin to move faster. Likewise if you start to cool a gas, the particles will move slower. Because the gas remains at a constant pressure and volume, the particles cannot spread out so they simply move around the container even faster.

Hope this helps :)
