Answer:
A physical change is a change to the physical—as opposed to chemical—properties of a substance. They are usually reversible. The physical properties of a substance include such characteristics as shape (volume and size), color, texture, flexibility, density, and mass.
Answer/Explanation: As mentioned above, the characteristic chemical property of a metal atom is to lose one or more of its electrons to form a positive ion. However, certain metals lose electrons much more readily than others. In particular, cesium (Cs) can give up its valence electron more easily than can lithium (Li).

Answer:
Increase the charge of one particle by a factor of 16
Explanation:
F = ma
<span>where </span>
<span>F = frictional force </span>
<span>m = mass of the block = 1.4 kg (given) </span>
<span>a = acceleration of the block = 1.25 m/sec^2 (given) </span>
<span>Substituting values, </span>
<span>F = (1.4)(1.25) </span>
<span>F = 1.75 N </span>
<span>By definition, </span>
<span>F = (mu)(Normal force) </span>
<span>where </span>
<span>mu = coefficient of friction </span>
<span>Normal force = mg = 1.4*9.8 = 13.72 </span>
<span>Again, substituting appropriate values, </span>
<span>1.75 = mu(13.72) </span>
<span>mu = 0.128</span>
Answer:
Explanation:
Temperature is defined as the average kinetic energy of the molecules of a substance. When a substance is cooled, the average kinetic energy of its molecules is reduced tremendously. Thus, the molecules of the substance no longer move at high speeds.
Gases, according to the ideal theory of gas molecules do not associate but are infinitely free and move at very high speeds. However, when cooled, the kinetic energy of these molecules become sufficiently low so as to allow intermolecular association. Secondly, compressing the carbon dioxide gas increases the pressure and decreases its volume. This further makes the carbon dioxide molecules to associate more rapidly. Since dry ice is sublime, CO2 doesn't pass through a liquid state, rather a highly ordered solid-state called dry ice is formed.
