Answer:

Burning of the candle is both physical and chemical change. Burning of the candle melts the wax and hence physical state of wax has changed from solid to liquid.  

Again the wax combines with the atmospheric oxygen and changes to carbon dioxide, heat and light.  

Thus both the changes are accompanied by the burning of the candle.

Explanation:

hope this helps!

dedylja [7]

Answer:

1. <u>No, you cannot calculate the solubility of X in water at 26ºC.</u>

Explanation:

You cannot calculate the solubility of X in <em>water at 26 degrees Celsius </em>because you do not know whether the solution formed by dissolving the crystals in 3.00 liters of water is saturaed or not.

The only way to determine the solubility of the compound X is by dissolving the crystals in certain (measured) amount of water and making sure that some crystals remain undissolved, as a solid on the bottom of the beaker.

Next, you should filter the solution to remove the undissolved crystals. Then, weigh the solution, evaporate, wash, dry, and weigh the crystals.

Then you have the mass of the crystals dissolved and the mass of the solution which will let you calculate the mass of pure water, and then the solubility.

HELP WITH CHEMISTRY PLEASE!
maria [59]

Answer:

1) 1.52 atm.

2) 647.85 K.

3) 20.56 L.

4) 1.513 mole.

5) 254.22 K = -18.77 °C.

Explanation:

  • In all this points, we should use the law of ideal gas to solve this problem: PV = nRT.
  • Where, P is the pressure (atm), V is the volume (L), n is the number of moles, R is the general gas constant (0.082 L.atm/mol.K), and T is the temperature (K).

1) In this point; n, R, and T are constants and the variables are P and V.

P and V are inversely proportional to each other that if we have two cases we get: P1V1 = P2V2.

<u><em>In our problem:</em></u>

P1 = ??? <em>(is needed to be calculated) </em>and V1 = 45.0 L.

P2 = 5.7 atm and V2 = 12.0 L.

Then, the original pressure (P1) = P2V2 / V1 = (5.7 atm x 12.0 L) / (45.0 L) = 1.52 atm.


2) In this case, n and R are the constants and the variables are P, V, and T.

P and V are inversely proportional to each other and both of them are directly proportional to the temperature of the gas that if we have two cases we get: P1V1T2 = P2V2T1.

<u><em>In our problem:</em></u>

P1 = 212.0 kPa, V1 = 32.0 L, and T1 = 20.0 °C = (20 °C + 273) = 293 K.

P2 = 300.0 kPa, V2= 50.0 L, and T2 = ??? <em>(is needed to be calculated) </em>

Then, the temperature in the second case (T2) = P2V2T1 / P1V1 = (300.0 kPa x 50.0 L x 293 K) / (212.0 kPa x 32.0 L) = 647.85 K.


3) In this case, P, n and R are the constants and the variables are V, and T.

V and T are directly proportional to each other that if we have two cases we get: V1T2 = V2T1.

<u><em>In our problem:</em></u>

V1 = 25.0 L and T1 = 65.0 °C + 273 = 338 K.

V2 = ??? <em>(is needed to be calculated) </em> and T2 = 5.0 °C + 273 = 278 K.

Herein, there is no necessary to convert T into K.

Then, the volume in the second case (V2) = V1T2 / T1 = (25.0 L x 278 °C) / (338 °C) = 20.56 L.


4) We can get the number of moles that will fill the container from: n = PV/RT.

P = 250.0 kPa, we must convert the unit from kPa to atm; <em><u>101.325 kPa = 1.0 atm</u></em>, then P = (1.0 atm x 250.0 kPa) / (101.325 kPa) = 2.467 atm.

V = 16.0 L.

R = 0.082 L.atm/mol.K.

T = 45 °C + 273 = 318 K.

Now, n = PV/RT = (2.467 atm x 16.0 L) / (0.082 L.atm/mol.K x 318 K) = 1.513 mole.


5) In this case, V, n and R are the constants and the variables are P, and T.

P and T are directly proportional to each other that if we have two cases we get: P1T2 = P2T1.

<u><em>In our problem:</em></u>

P1 = 2200.0 mmHg and T1 = ??? <em>(is needed to be calculated) </em>.

P2 = 2700.0 mmHg and T2 = 39.0 °C + 273 = 312.0 K.

Herein, there is no necessary to convert P into atm.

Then, the temperature in the morning (T1) = P1T2 / P2 = (2200.0 mmHg x 312.0 K) / (2700.0 mmHg) = 254.22 K = -18.77 °C.
