Answer:
Boiling point
Explanation:
Distillation is one of the most widely used separation technique in chemistry. It is used to separate a mixture of liquid substances with different boiling point. Hence, the basis of the separation is BOILING POINT DIFFERENCE.
In the procedure, the liquid substances are heated until they turn gaseous, which they do at different times considering their different boiling points. The separated components are then converted back to liquid states in a process called CONDENSATION.
Isotopes are atoms of the same element that differ in the number of neutrons.
Remember that all the atoms of an element have the same number of protons. So the only difference between isotopes of an element is the number of neutrons.
86 Sr means that the mass number of this isotope is 86. Also, remember that the mass number is the number of protons plus the number of neutrons.
87 Sr means that the mass number of this isotope is 87.
So, 86 Sr and 87 Sr differ 1 neutron.
Answer: 1 neutron
Answer:
Explanation:
Mass of compound A = 25g
Mass of compound B = 40g
Mass of final mixture = 55g
What happens to the missing mass?
According to the law of conservation of mass, in chemical reaction, matter is transformed from one form to another but cannot be created nor destroyed.
We expect the final mass of the mixture and that of the reacting compounds to be the same but the opposite is the case.
There is a mass loss which typifies most chemical reaction.
The reason for this is that some of the masses must have been lost by the production of gaseous species which are unaccounted for.
The missing mass:
Total mass expected = mass of A + mass of B = 25 + 40 = 65g
Missing mass = expected mass - mass of final mixture = 65 - 55 = 10g
