Explanation:
A chemical property is defined as the property that brings changes in chemical composition of a substance.
For example, flammability, combustion, reactivity, electronegativity etc are allchemical properties.
On the other hand, a property that does not bring any change in chemical composition of a substance is known as a physical property.
For example, shape, size, mass, density etc are all physical properties.
Thus, we can conclude that these may all be classified as chemical properties of a substance.
The Gulf Stream, warm current in the Atlantic
Answer:
D. VISCOSITY can be defined as a substance's ability to resist flow.
Explanation:
This is the statement that correctly describe the term viscosity. Viscosity explains why substances or fluids resist flow. It shows that internal friction or resistance to flow revealed by a substance. A substance with high viscosity or internal friction resist flow and one with low viscosity flow easily. Viscosity of a substance change base on various factors affecting the substance such as pressure, temperature, surface area. Substances like water has low viscosity explaining why it flows easily.
Tap water and rain water are both homogeneous, even though they may have different levels of dissolved minerals and gases. A bottle of alcohol is a man-made homogeneous mixture, from a fine Italian wine to a glass of Scotch whisky. In the human body, blood plasma is an example of a homogeneous mixture.
Answer:
No
Explanation:
The pH scale is a scale graduated from 0-14 which shows the degree of acidity of alkalinity of a substance. The pH scale is graduated in such a way that 0-6.9 indicates acidity, 7.0 indicate a neutral substance, while a pH of 8-14 indicates alkalinity respectively.
There are three main definitions of acids/bases
- Arrhenius definition
-Brownstead-Lowry definition
-Lewis definition
Arrhenius explains acids as any substance that produces hydrogen ions as its only positive ion in solution while a base produces hydroxide ions as its only negative ion in solution. The pH scale is based on corresponding values of pH derived from aqueous solutions of these substances.
However, not all acids/bases produces hydrogen or hydroxide ions in solution. Brownstead-Lowry definition of acids and Lewis definition of acids could be extended to nonaqueous media where the pH can not be measured as there are no hydrogen or hydroxide ions present in the solution.
This implies that pH measurement may not apply to acids/bases in the all the categories of acids/bases hence it can not be utilized for all acids and bases.
Arrhenius - sodium carbonate
Brownstead-Lowry - concentrated HF
Lewis acid - AlCl3
