Answer: A). a prediction that a tire's air pressure will increase if the tire's temperature is raised

Explanation:

A hypothesis is a proposed explanation for a phenomenon. For a hypothesis to be a scientific hypothesis, the scientific method requires that one can test it. Scientists generally base scientific hypotheses on previous observations that cannot satisfactorily be explained with the available scientific theories.

A hypothesis can be define as the presumed or predicted statement for a natural phenomena which is required to be testified by using suitable experimental methodology or observatory approaches.

A). a prediction that a tire's air pressure will increase if the tire's temperature is raised. is the correct answer this is because of the fact that the statement involves a prediction that can be proved by using suitable experimental methodology.

Answer: Option (c) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

In liquids, molecules are held by slightly less strong intermolecular forces of attraction as compared to solids.

Hence, molecules of a liquid are able to slide past each other as they have more kinetic energy than the molecules of a solid.

As a result, liquids are able to occupy the shape of container in which they are placed. Also, liquids have fixed volume but no fixed shape.

Thus, we can conclude that liquids have a variable shape and a fixed volume.

Under which of the following conditions would a chemical reaction most likely proceed at the fastest rate?

Valentin [98]

<h2>Answer:</h2>

Option A is correct

Adding an enzyme to decrease the activation energy of the reaction

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Enzymes are the biological catalyst. They are proteins in nature. They are naturally found in humans,animals,micro-organisms,plants etc. They catalyze the chemical reactions by lowering activation energy and without being consumed in it.

If 2.0 g of copper(II) chloride react with excess sodium nitrate, what mass of sodium chloride is formed in this double replacem

cluponka [151]

Taking into account the reaction stoichiometry, 1.729 grams of NaCl is formed.

<h3>Reaction stoichiometry</h3>

In first place, the balanced reaction is:

CuCl₂ + 2 NaNO₃ → Cu(NO₃)₂ + 2 NaCl

By reaction stoichiometry (that is, the relationship between the amount of reagents and products in a chemical reaction), the following amounts of moles of each compound participate in the reaction:

CuCl₂: 1 mole
NaNO₃: 2 moles
Cu(NO₃)₂ : 1 mole
NaCl: 2 moles

The molar mass of the compounds is:

CuCl₂: 134.44 g/mole
NaNO₃: 85 g/mole
Cu(NO₃)₂ : 187.54 g/mole
NaCl: 58.45 g/mole

Then, by reaction stoichiometry, the following mass quantities of each compound participate in the reaction:

CuCl₂: 1 mole ×134.44 g/mole= 134.44 grams
NaNO₃: 2 moles ×85 g/mole= 170 grams
Cu(NO₃)₂ : 1 mole ×187.54 g/mole= 187.54 grams
NaCl: 2 moles ×58.45 g/mole= 116.9 grams

<h3>Mass of NaCl formed</h3>

The following rule of three can be applied: If by stoichiometry of the reaction 134.44 grams of CuCl₂ form 116.9 grams of NaCl, 2 grams of CuCl₂ form how much mass of NaCl?

$mass of NaCl=\frac{2 grams of CuCl_{2}x116.9 grams of NaCl }{134.44grams of CuCl_{2}}$

<u><em>mass of NaCl= 1.739 grams</em></u>

Finally, 1.729 grams of NaCl is formed.
