In a laboratory experiment, a fermenting aqueous solution of glucose and yeast produces carbon dioxide gas and ethanol. The solu

tion was heated by burning natural gas in a Bunsen burner to distill the ethanol that formed in the flask. During the distillation, the ethanol evaporated and then condensed in the receiving flask. The flame of the burner was kept too close to the bottom of the flask and some of the glucose decomposed into a black carbon deposit on the inside of the flask. During this experiment the following changes occurred. Which of these changes involved a physical change and not a chemical change?
1. evaporation of ethanol
2. condensation of ethanol
3. formation of a carbon deposit inside the flask
4. formation of carbon dioxide gas from glucose
5. burning of natural gas
6. formation of ethanol from glucose by yeast

Answer:

1. evaporation of ethanol

2. condensation of ethanol

Explanation:

The first and second process imply a change of phase, which is essentially a  physical change because the matter change from liquid to gas and from gas to liquid respectively and it can ve reversed.

The options 3 to 6 are related to a chemical reaction because the outcomes of the process are different compounds than the ones we had at the beginning. The main reaction that implies process 3 to 6 is represented by:

C6H12O6 +  impurities → 2 C2H5OH + 2 CO+ C

For option 5. burning of natural gas , we have:

Natural gas(Mainly a mix of CH4 and C2H10) +O2→COn+H2O

Therefore, justo 1 and 2 are a physical change

What is the current in 160V current if the resistance is 20
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

Current, I = 8 A

Explanation:

We have,

Voltage, V = 160 V

Resistance, R = 20 ohms

It is required to find the current. The relation between current, voltage and resistance is called Ohm's law. It is given as :

V=IR

I = current

I=\dfrac{V}{R}\\\\I=\dfrac{160}{20}\\\\I=8\ A

So, the value of current is 8 A.

Uranium-238 decays to lead-206 with a half-life of 4.5 x 109 yr. Determine how much uranium-238 decays in milligrams (to three s
Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

2.15 mg of uranium-238 decays

Explanation:

For decay of radioactive nuclide-

                        N=N_{0}.(\frac{1}{2})^{\frac{t}{t_{\frac{1}{2}}}}

where N is amount of radioactive nuclide after t time, N_{0} is initial amount of radioactive nuclide and t_{\frac{1}{2}} is half life of radioactive nuclide

Here N_{0}=4.60 mg, t=4.1\times 10^{9}yr and t_{\frac{1}{2}}=4.5\times 10^{9}yr

So,N=(4.60mg)\times (\frac{1}{2})^{\frac{4.1\times 10^{9}}{4.5\times 10^{9}}}

so, N = 2.446 mg

mass of uranium-238 decays = (4.60-2.446) mg = 2.15 mg
