Answer:

The definition of a physical change is: A physical change is a type of change in which the form of matter is altered but one substance is not transformed into another. The size or shape of matter may be changed but no chemical reactions occur.

An example of physical change is: crumbling a piece of paper or freezing water into ice.

The  properties which keep the water temperature from changing much are;

  • water's high specific heat capacity
  • the large mass of water
<h3>What is specific heat capacity?</h3>

The specific heat capacity is the property of a substance that shows how much its temperature changes when it is exposed to heat.

Thus, the  properties which keep the water temperature from changing much are;

  • water's high specific heat capacity
  • the large mass of water

Missing parts:

A.) water's high heat conductivity

B.) water's high specific heat capacity

C.) the iron nail's high heat conductivity

D.) the large mass of water

E.) the iron nail's high specific heat capacity

How many moles of H2O form when 4.5 moles O2 reacts?
mart [117]

Explanation:

Start with a balanced equation.

2H2 + O2 → 2H2O

Assuming that H2 is in excess, multiply the given moles H2O by the mole ratio between O2 and H2O in the balanced equation so that moles H2O cancel.

5 mol H2O × (1 mol O2/2 mol H2O) = 2.5 mol O2

Answer: 2.5 mol O2 are needed to make 5 mol H2O, assuming H2 is in excess.

If a gas occupies 79.5 mL at -1.4°C, what temperature, in Kelvin, would it
Anna35 [415]

Answer:

121 K

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

  • Initial volume (V₁): 79.5 mL
  • Initial temperature (T₁): -1.4°C
  • Final volume (V₂): 35.3 mL

Step 2: Convert "-1.4°C" to Kelvin

We will use the following expression.

K = °C + 273.15 = -1.4°C + 273.15 = 271.8 K

Step 3: Calculate the final temperature of the gas (T₂)

Assuming ideal behavior and constant pressure, we can calculate the final temperature of the gas using Charles' law.

V₁/T₁ = V₂/T₂

T₂ = V₂ × T₁/V₁

T₂ = 35.3 mL × 271.8 K/79.5 mL = 121 K
