It would be an physical change ; if you melt butter the butter goes from a solid to a liquid so therefore the physical state is changed.
We have been given the condition that carbon makes up 35%
of the mass of the substance and the rest is made up of oxygen. With this, it
can be concluded that 65% of the substance is made up of oxygen. If we let x be
the mass of oxygen in the substance, the operation that would best represent
the scenario is,
<span> x = (0.65)(5.5 g)</span>
<span> <em> </em><span><em>x =
3.575 g</em></span></span>
one mole of P weights about 31 grams
in one mole there are 6.022*10^23 atoms
we use the rule of threes
6.022*10^23atoms......weight..........31 grams
3.45*10^23 atoms.........weight...........x grams
x=(3.45*10^23*31)/6.022*10^23
x=106.95/6.022=<u><em>17.76 grams</em></u>
Answer would be c hope this helped
