Answer:

1 and 2 - Physical change

3, 4, 5 and 6 - Chemical Change

Explanation:

A physical change is the conversion of one form into another. Like water is in natural state is liquid but at applying negative temperature like in a freezer, it will convert into ice which is just another form of water. At high temperature, water will convert into vapors and form steam. In all three states, water is just water in a different form. That's what a physical change is. It is a reversible process.

A chemical change is the conversion of one molecule into another form which cannot be reversed. Like burning of coal. You won't get coal after you have burnt it.

In the same experiment, there have been many physical and chemical changes.

1. Evaporation of Ethanol is a physical change as external heat is applied which separates ethanol from water in form of vapors.

2. Condensation of Ethanol is also a physical change where vapors of ethanol are being converted into liquid form.

3. Formation of carbon deposit inside the flask: This is a chemical change. As the experiment contained glucose, upon higher temperatures, glucose loses water molecules and forms carbon. Now, since we cannot convert carbon back to glucose in a simple step, therefore, it is a chemical change which cannot be reversed.

4. Formation of Carbon dioxide gas from Glucose: This is a chemical change. Carbon dioxide cannot be fixed into glucose without the help of a plant or certain chemical methods therefore it is a chemical change and cannot be reversed by normal means.

5. Burning of natural gas: It is a chemical process. Natural gas contains methane as the primary source of burning. It reacts with oxygen present in air and forms carbon dioxide and water and releases heat which is used to elevate the temperature of ethanol-water mixture to obtain purified ethanol.

6. Formation of ethanol from glucose by yeast:  It is also a chemical process, biochemical to be specific. Under the absence of air (Fermentation), yeast converts glucose to ethanol which is a chemical process because glucose has been used up and is not glucose anymore. It has been converted to ethanol.

If you start with .235 g nickel, tell me how much of the compound product will be produced.
Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

There are many compounds that are produced from Nickel.

Molar mass of Ni = 58.7g

So for 0.235g Ni, there are 0.004M.

By conservation of mass, the compound produced will contain 0.04M of Ni.

Question 2 (2 points)
poizon [28]

Answer:

m_w=439.2g

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since the by-mass percent of a solution is a measure of the mass of the solute over the mass of the solution:

\%m/m=\frac{m_{solute}}{m_{solution}} *100\%

As we know the mass of the solution and the by-mass percent, we can compute the mass of glucose in the 480 g of solution:

m_{solute}=\frac{\%m/m*m_{solution}}{100\%}

Thus, by plugging in the data, we obtain:

m_{solute}=\frac{8.5\%*480g}{100\%}=40.8g

Finally, since the solution is made up of glucose and water, we compute the mass of water as follows:

m_w=m_{sol}-m_{solute}=480g-40.8g\\\\m_w=439.2g

Best regards!
