In the process of attempting to ch aracterize a substance, a chemist makes the fo llowing observations: The substance is a silve

ry white, lustrous metal. It melts at 649∘C and boils at 1105∘C.Its density at 20∘C is 1.738g/cm3.The substance burns in air, producing an intense white light. It reacts with chlorine to give a brittle white solid. The substance can be pounded into thin sheets or drawn into wires. It is a good conductor of electricity. Which of these characteri stics are physical properti es, and which are chemical properties?

Answer:

Here's what I get  

Explanation:

A physical property is one you can observe without changing the chemical composition of a substance.

A chemical property is one you can observe only by changing the chemical composition of a substance.

In this problem, examples of physical properties are:

  • Colour
  • Lustre
  • Melting point
  • Boiling point
  • Density
  • Malleability
  • Ductility
  • Conduction of electricity

Examples of chemical properties are:

  • Burning in air
  • Reaction with chlorine

A student isolated 25 g of a compound following a procedure that would theoratically yield 81 g. Wht was his percentt yield?
Sati [7]

<u>Answer:</u> The percent yield of the compound is 30.86 %.

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the percentage yield of a compound, we use the equation:

\%\text{ yield}=\frac{\text{Experimental yield}}{\text{Theoretical yield}}\times 100

Experimental yield of compound = 25 g

Theoretical yield of compound = 81 g

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\%\text{ yield of compound}=\frac{25g}{81g}\times 100\\\\\% \text{yield of compound}=30.86\%

Hence, the percent yield of the compound is 30.86 %.

As a roller coaster is going UP the first hill, what is happening to the KE?
SpyIntel [72]

Explanation:

It should be decreasing, and the potential energy increasing, since Law of Conversation of Energy, right?

Also, if you think about what happens when it goes down, it loses potential and gains kinetic, so maybe the opposite should happen when it goes up.

Nuetrik [128]
Plants can produce asexually as well as protest so I would reject animals out of the choices. Now to determine the right answer we would have to decide which organisms MOST produce asexually and I would go with Plants

What is the difference between melting and dissolving
faust18 [17]
<span>In melting only one substance is involved and the liquid and solid are the same material. Heat is needed for melting to occur. Dissolving involves two materials; the resulting solution is a mixture of both. The dissolved substance is still present in the solution even though it can't be seen.</span>
