That friend is not correct. Physical change is characterized by a change in appearance without any change in composition. So, if the appearance did not change in the situation, then there is no change in the system. This type of change affects the form of a substance but not the composition or the structure of the molecules. Examples of this type of change are ice melting, cutting a paper into half, clay is molded to a new shape, butter melting, water evaporating. The change that involves a change in chemical composition is classified a chemical change. In this type of change, chemical reactions would take place.

Question 6 (1 point)
Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

The correct option is;

d 4400

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The mass of the ice = 55 g

The Heat of Fusion = 80 cal/g

The Heat of Vaporization = 540 cal/g

The specific heat capacity of water = 1 cal/g

The heat required to melt a given mass of ice = The Heat of Fusion × The mass of the ice

The heat required to melt the 55 g mass of ice = 540 cal/g × 55 g = 29700 cal

The heat required to raise the temperature of a given mass ice (water) = The mass of the ice (water) × The specific heat capacity of the ice (water) × The temperature change

The heat required to raise the temperature of the ice from 0°C to 100°C = 55 × 1 × (100 - 0) = 5,500 cal

The heat required to vaporize a given mass of ice = The Heat of Vaporization × The mass of the ice

The heat required to vaporize the 55 g mass of ice at 100°C = 80 cal/g × 55 g = 4,400 cal

The total heat required to boil 55 g of ice = 29700 cal + 5,500 cal + 4,400 cal = 39,600 cal

However, we note that the heat required to vaporize the 55 g mass of ice at 100°C = 80 cal/g × 55 g = 4,400 cal.

The heat required to vaporize the 55 g mass of ice at 100°C = 4,400 cal

A ------------ ----------------- is the dying out of a large number of species on a global scale
ziro4ka [17]

Answer:

Extinction event or sometimes known as Mass extinction

Explanation:

These events typically are typically widespread and rapid decrease in the biodiversity (which takes into account spread and existence of current species). The worst mass extinction was Permian–Triassic extinction where over 90% of species of organisms vanished.

What is the wavelength of radiation that has a frequency
White raven [17]

Answer:

\lambda = \frac{c}{\nu}

Explanation:

The wavelenght of  a radiation is inversely proportional to its frequency. It can be estimated by the following formula:

\lambda = \frac{c}{\nu}

Where:

  • \lambda is the wavelenght
  • \nu is the frequency
  • c is the speed of light (arroung 300000 km/s)

What term best describes the type of reaction that happens when a single element reacts with a molecule or compound, producing a
gogolik [260]

The answer is

C. A single replacement reaction (acid reactions)

An example would be the reaction between simple metal Potassium (K) and Water (H2O), resulting in a much solid compound called Potassium Hydroxide (KOH) and hydrogen gas is set free.

K+H2O --> KOH
