Answer:
See explanation
Explanation:
Many organic compounds have low melting points. This is due to the fact that many of these compounds are non polar.
However, compound X is slightly polar but still has a melting point which is far less than that of sand composed of a high melting point inorganic material.
Since sand has a much higher melting point compared to compound X, the researcher need not be worried that sand was spilled into his beaker.
Answer:
True
Explanation:
lithium atoms lose one electron each while chlorine atoms gain one electron each
<h3>
Answer:</h3>
915 Joules
<h3>
Explanation:</h3>
- The heat of fusion is the heat that is required to convert a given mass of a substance from solid state to liquid state without change in temperature.
- In this case, we are given specific heat of a substance as 122 joules per gram
- It means that amount of heat equivalent to 122 joules is required to change 1 gram of the substance from solid state to liquid state.
- Therefore, we can determine the amount of heat needed to change 7.5 grams of the substance from solid to liquid state.
1 g = 122 Joules
7.5 g = ?
= 122 × 7.5
= 915 Joules
Thus, 7.5 g of the substance at its melting point will require 915 Joules of heat to melt.
