The particles of frosting released energy to their surroundings and changed from the solid to the liquid state. The particles of frosting released energy to their surroundings and changed from the liquid to the solid state. The particles of frosting absorbed energy from their surroundings and changed from the solid to the liquid state.

Answer:

The particles of frosting absorbed energy from their surroundings and changed from the solid to the liquid state.

Explanation:

On a sunny day, the energy of the particles in the surrounding is higher than the energy of the frosting tray of cupcakes.

As a result of the exchange of energy between the tray of cupcakes and the surrounding, the tray of cupcakes absorbs energy from the surrounding. When this occurs, the firm frosting is now converted from solid to liquid which is runny and wet to touch, hence the answer above.

Methane can be decomposed into two simpler substances: hydrogen and carbon. Therefore, methane 1. is a gas. 2. cannot be an elem
Reika [66]

Answer: 2. cannot be an element.

Explanation:

Element is a pure substance which is composed of atoms of similar elements.It can not be decomposed into simpler constituents using chemical reactions.Example: Copper Cu

Compound is a pure substance which is made from atoms of different elements combined together in a fixed ratio by mass.It can be decomposed into simpler constituents using chemical reactions. Example: methane CH_4

CH_4\rightarrow C+2H_2

Thus as it can be decomposed into its constituent elements, it is a compound.

Mixture is a substance which has two or more components which do not combine chemically and do not have any fixed ratio in which they are present.

Thus methane cannot be an element.

When dissolved in water, a neutral molecule of calcium chloride dissociates into three ions - one calcium ion and two chloride i
Mashcka [7]

Explanation:

Calcium chloride is an ionic compound as it is formed by transfer of an electron to each chlorine atom.

So, being an ionic compound calcium chloride is able to dissociate completely into water.

Hence, the dissociation reaction will be as follows.

         CaCl_{2}(s) \rightarrow Ca^{2+}(aq) + 2Cl^{-}(aq)

Since, two electrons has been lost by single calcium atom. Therefore, calcium atom will have a charge of +2.

Thus, we can conclude that the charge on the calcium ion, in elementary units is +2.

Place the following elements in order of increasing electronegativity.K Cs PA. K < P < CsB. P < Cs < KC. Cs < K &
skad [1K]

Answer:

C. Cs < K < P

Explanation:

Electronegativity is the basically the tendency of an atom to attract electrons. The pauling scale is used to quantify electronegativity, the most electronegative element; fluorine has a value of 4.0 and francium, the least electronegative element has a value of 0.7

The electronegative values of the following elements are given as;

K = 0.82

Cs =0.79

P = 2.19

Arranging in order of increasing electronegativity, we have;

Cs < K < P. The correct option is;

C. Cs < K < P

If a reaction vessel initially contains 5 mol S and 10 mil O2, how many moles of S will be in the reaction vessel once the react
Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

Explanation:

2S       +       3O₂       =       2SO₃

2moles      3 moles

2 moles of S react with 3 moles of O₂

5 moles of S will react with 3 x 5 / 2 moles of O₂

= 7.5 moles of O₂ .

O₂ remaining unreacted = 10 - 7.5 = 2.5 moles .

All the moles of S will exhausted in the reaction and 2.5 moles of oxygen will be left .
