Answer: A) grinding coffee beans

Explanation:

A physical change is defined as a change in which there is alteration in shape, size etc. No new substance gets formed in these reactions.

A chemical change is defined as a change in which a change in chemical composition takes place. A new substance is formed in these reactions.

1. Grinding coffee : Only change in size takes place, thus a physical change

2. Baking a cake: the chemical reaction occurs by combination of flour with oxygen , thus a chemical change.

3.:converting water to hydrogen and oxygen: The decomposition iof water takes place, thus is a chemical change

4.Burning of coal: the chemical reaction occurs by combination of carbon with oxygen , thus a chemical change.

Why is it so important in an ideal simple experiment to change only one variable from trial to trial?
RideAnS [48]
Because if you change two things then you do not know which one has affected or altered the dependent variable.  if you only change one then you know what exactly changed and why

Hydrogen produced from a hydrolysis reaction was collected over water and the following data was compiled.
Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

  • 0.00358 mol

Explanation:

<u>1) Data:</u>

a) V = 93.90 ml

b) T = 28°C

c) P₁ = 744 mmHg

d) P₂ = 28.25 mmHg

d) n = ?

<u>2) Conversion of units</u>

a) V = 93.90 ml × 1.000 liter / 1,000 ml = 0.09390 liter

b) T = 28°C = 28 + 273.15 K = 301.15 K

c) P₁ = 744 mmHg × 1 atm / 760 mmHg = 0.9789 atm

d) P₂ = 28.5 mmHg × 1 atm / 760 mmHg = 0.0375 atm

<u>3) Chemical principles and formulae</u>

a) The total pressure of a mixture of gases is equal to the sum of the partial pressures of each gas. Hence, the partical pressure of the hydrogen gas collected is equal to the total pressure less the vapor pressure of water.

b) Ideal gas equation: pV = nRT

<u>4) Solution:</u>

a) Partial pressure of hydrogen gas: 0.9789 atm - 0.0375 atm = 0.9414 atm

b) Moles of hygrogen gas:

pV = nRT ⇒ n = pV / (RT) =

n =  (0.9414 atm × 0.09390 liter) / (0.0821 atm-liter /K-mol × 301.15K) =

n = 0.00358 mol (which is rounded to 3 significant figures) ← answer

Calculate the percentage by mass of the indicated element in the following compounds. Hydrogen in ascorbic acid, HC6H7O6, also k
Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer: The mass percent of hydrogen in ascorbic acid is 4.5 %

Explanation:

In C_6H_8O_6, there are 6 carbon atoms, 8 hydrogen atoms and 6 oxygen atoms.

To calculate the mass percent of element in a given compound, we use the formula:

\text{Mass percent of hydrogen}=\frac{\text{Mass of hydrogen}}{\text{Molar mass of ascorbic acid}}\times 100

Mass of hydrogen = 8\times 1g/mol=8g

Molar Mass of ascorbic acid =6\times 12g/mol+8\times 1g/mol+6\times 16g/mol=176g

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\text{Mass percent of hydrogen}=\frac{8g}{176}\times 100=4.5\%

Hence, the mass percent of of hydrogen in ascorbic acid is 4.5 %.
