6 0

Explanation:

Matter can be categorized into substances and mixtures.

Matter is anything that has mass and occupies spaces.

Substances are distinct matter with the following properties:

  • All parts are the same throughout i.e homogeneous
  • Their composition is definite
  • They cannot be easily separated or broken down into simpler substances by physical means
  • Separation by physical means is not easy
  • They have a unique set of physical properties.

Mixtures have the following properties:

  • Their composition is indefinite i.e they consist of two or more elements and/or compounds in any proportion by mass
  • Their constituents retains their identity
  • They can easily be separated by physical means
  • They have a broad range of physical properties.

A car travels 2.5 hours in a Northern direction for 300km. Determine the cats speed and velocity
nika2105 [10]

Answer:

Velocity = 120 km/h in north

Speed  =  120 km/h

Explanation:

Given data:

Distance = 300 km north

Time taken = 2.5 hr

Speed and velocity = ?

Solution:

Speed = distance / time

Speed  = 300 km / 2.5 h

Speed  =  120 km/h

Velocity = change in position / change in time

Velocity = 300 km north /  2.5 hr

Velocity = 120 km/h in north

What makes the element named iron (fe) different from the element named nickel (ni)?
Sphinxa [80]
<span>The chemical properties of elements is determined by the electron shell configurations of each element. Different electron shell configuration = different chemical properties. And the number of electrons that an element has is determined by the number of protons the element has in it's nucleus. Iron has 26 protons, so a neutral atom of iron will have 26 electrons, while nickle has 28 protons, therefore when neutral will have 28 electrons. And since they have differing numbers of electrons, their electron shells differ and therefore their chemical properties differ.</span>

10. (2 points) What is the process by which a solute forms a solution in a solvent. A) calisthenics B) bumping C) dissolution D)
Triss [41]

Answer: (C) Dissolution is the process by which a solute form a solution in a solvent.

Explanation: Dissolution can be described as the process by which a solute dissolves in a solvent to give a solvent.

The solute may be a solid, liquid or gas and solvent is usually a liquid but can also be liquid, gas or supercritical fluid. The most common solvent is water and it is referred to as the universal solvent.

Example are:

1.Stirring of sugar in water.

In this case the solute is the sugar and the solvent is water.

2.Organic substances dissolves readily in solvent like kerosene and benzene and they are known as non-polar solvent while the organic substances are the solute
