Option C, cation.

In chemistry, there are two types of ions: cation and anion. A cation essentially means that the atom is positively charged, which happens when atoms lose an electron. An anion means that it's negatively charged, which happens when atoms gain an electron

My middle school chemistry teacher told me a good way to remember the difference. A cation's sounds like "cat," and that's positive (Who doesn't like cats?). Anion sounds like "onion," and that sounds negative (Ew, raw onion!).

If you have any questions, just ask. Good luck! :))

Which situation describes evidence of a chemical change?
Oksanka [162]

Answer:

The correct answer is:

A solution feels warm after a cool solid is added to it (C)

Explanation:

Chemical changes among other results in a change of the temperature of the reactants, producing a product of higher temperature (exothermic reaction) or  a product of lower temperature (endothermic reaction). In this case, the temperature of the product was higher than the reactants suggesting an exothermic reaction.

The other options however, suggests  physical changes rather than a chemical changes;

A. the change of color of the water suggest mixing or water and color molecules.

B. solid changing into liquid is change of state, which is more of a physical change than chemical

D. Filtration is a physical process, hence the change is a physical change.

Fully explain, why each characteristic would or would not favor the formation of an amorphous solid​
WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

Crystalline solids have regular ordered arrays of components held together by uniform intermolecular forces, whereas the components of amorphous solids are not arranged in regular arrays. The learning objective of this module is to know the characteristic properties of crystalline and amorphous solids. When cleaved or broken, they produce fragments with irregular, often curved surfaces; and they have poorly defined patterns when exposed to x-rays because their components are not arranged in a regular array. An amorphous, translucent solid is called a glass.

The boiling point of an aqueous solution is 101.28 °c. what is the freezing point?
marissa [1.9K]
Answer : -4.65 °C

Explanation : On solving the sum w.r.t to water as the aqueous solvent in solution;
(101.28°C - 100°C) / (0.512 c/m)  = 2.5 m,

Now, 2.5 m X (1.86 °C/m) = 4.65 °C which will be the change in temperature of the solution in °C;

To find the freezing point we have to get it subtracted by 0°C

0°C - 4.65°C = -4.65°C

Below is a phase diagram for Carbon Dioxide. Use this diagram to answer the following question.
kompoz [17]
If you mark those points on the phase diagram it appears to be moving from vapor to liquid. If you can’t see how I determined that please let me know and I can further explain.

Vapor to liquid is the same as saying gas to liquid, which I believe to be the correct answer.
