Chemistry
1 answer:
nevsk [136]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Physical properties are controlled by the mineral's chemical composition and atomic structure, this combination is distinct in each mineral.

Explanation:

Hello,

Since the physical properties depend on the mineral's chemical composition and the atomic structure (molecular arrangement), we can distinguish different minerals by measuring out hardness, cleavage and other properties in order to analyze their behavior under several conditions and subsequently  use them in a particular application.

Best regards.

Determine the number of moles in 4.21 x 10^23 molecules of CaCI2?????
Alla [95]

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Number of molecules = 4.21 x 10²³ molecules

Unknown parameters:

Number of moles

Solution:

A mole can be defined as the amount of a substance that contains the avogadro's number of particles i.e 6.02 x 10²³

  To find the number of moles:

          Number of moles = \frac{number of molecules }{[tex]6.02 x 10^{23}}[/tex]

  Number of moles =  \frac{4.21 x 10[tex]^{23} }{6.02 x 10^{23}}[/tex]

Number of moles of CaCl₂ = 0.699moles
