Answer:

An ion is a charged atom or molecule. It is charged because the number of electrons do not equal the number of protons in the atom or molecule. An atom can acquire a positive charge or a negative charge depending on whether the number of electrons in an atom is greater or less then the number of protons in the atom.

Explanation:

hope it's right

Preserving food by freezing controls reaction rates by

kykrilka [37]

Answer:

D) both a and c are correct

Explanation:

The reaction rate is a measure of the speed of a chemical reaction. The factors that affects the rate of a chemical reaction are itemised below:

Nature of the reactants
Concentration of the reactants or pressure(if gaseous)
Temperature
Presence of catalyst
Sunlight

Our concern here is temperature. Temperature affects a reaction considerably. Average kinetic energy is directly proportional to the temperature of the reacting particles. When the temperature of a reacting system is increase, the frequency of ordinary and effective collisions per unit time increases. A decrease in temperature implies that the number of collisions also decreases.

Why is a homogeneous mixture not considered a pure substance? Question 6 options: A pure substance can be separated by physical

krok68 [10]

1. Why is a homogeneous mixture not considered a pure substance?

Answer:

A pure substance can be separated by chemical means, while a mixture can be separated by physical means.

2. What is true if mass is conserved in a reaction?

Answer:

There are equal numbers of atoms on both sides.

3. Methane reacts with oxygen then what are the products?

Answer:

carbon dioxide and water

4. Which one of the following is not a homogeneous mixture?

Answer:

vegetable soup

5. The substance is not uniform in appearance and each part of the mixture contains a combination of different ingredients in different ratios.

Answer:

heterogeneous mixtures

6. If a solution is saturated, which of these is true?

Answer:

More solvent can be dissolved

7. Which of these substances are molecules?

Answer:

All compounds are molecules but not all molecules are compounds. Molecular oxygen (O2) and molecular nitrogen (N2) are not compounds because each is composed of a single element. So correct option is 3 and 4.

8. What makes a solution a homogeneous mixture?

Answer:

It is uniform in composition.

9. When a solute is added to a solution, why does it remain homogeneous?

Answer:

The solute dissolves.

10. The chemical formula of glucose is C6H12O6, so it is classified as a(n)

Answer:

pure substance.

11. How many chlorine (Cl) atoms would be in 4 molecules of salt (4 NaCl)?

Answer:

12. In a solution of salt and water, which component is the solute?

Answer:

Salt

13. These substances are all H2O2, Li , NaCl , O2

Answer:

Pure Substances

14. If you have 5 grams of product after a chemical reaction, how many grams of reactants did you have at the start of the reaction?

Answer:

15. What is the difference between a compound and a mixture?

Answer:

A compound is a pure substance, but a mixture is not.

16. A firework exploding would be an example of a(n) ________.

Answer:

Exothermic reaction

17. If Lavoisier heated 100 grams of powdered mercuric oxide to produce 93 grams of liquid mercury, how much oxygen would be released?

Solution

2HgO ==> 2Hg + O2

Mass of HgO = 100 g

Molar mass of HgO = 216.59 g/mol

Moles = mass/molar mass = 0.46 moles

From balance chemcial equation

HgO : O2

2 = 1

0.46 = (1 × 0.46 ) ÷ 2 = 0.23 moles

mass of O2 = moles× molar mass = 0.23 × 32 = 7.36 g

18. Using the Law of Conservation of Matter, determine the number of grams of iron sulfide (FeS) that will be produced in this reaction.

Solution

12g Fe + 64g S → _____ g FeS

According to Law of Conservation of Matter, The total mass of reactant is equal to total mass of product , so the number of grams of iron sulfide (FeS) that will be produced in this reaction as follow.

12 + 64 = 76 g of FeS

Hope this Help.

The molar heat of fusion of platinum (Pt) is 4.700 kcal/mol. How much heat must be added to 85.5 g of solid platinum at its melt

Andre45 [30]

The heat required to completely melt the given substance, platinum, we just have to convert first the given mass in mole and multiply the answer to its molar heat of fusion..
Hf = mass x (1/molar mass) x molar heat of fusion
Hf = (85.5 g) x (1 mole/195.08 g) x 4.70 kcal/mol
Hf = 2.06 kcal
