Which property can be used to tell gold and pyrite apart?

Chemistry
1 answer:
zubka84 [21]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

D. Malleability

Explanation:

Gold is made up of the element Au and it is a metal.

Pyrite is iron sulfide and it is a non-metal.

  • They have very similar appearance to such an extent that pyrite is widely called the fool's gold.
  • To distinguish between the two, we simply explore their metallic properties.
  • Gold is malleable. Pyrite is not. It will crumble under pressure.

Answer:

Explanation:

1 standard deviation range will look like: [average - SD, average + SD]

Here the miximum value will be: average - SD = 2.6 - 0.80 = 1.80 ml

and the maximum value will be: average + SD = 2.6 + 0.80 = 3.40ml

What can help overcome a positive enthalpy of solution and allow a solid
IgorC [24]

Answer: D. An increase in entropy

Explanation:

Entropy is the measure of randomness or disorder of a system. If a system moves from  an disordered arrangement to an ordered arrangement, the entropy is said to increase and vice versa.

For a reaction to be spontaneous, the enthalpy of the solution must decrease and the entropy must increase.

To overcome a positive enthalpy of solution and allow a solid  solute to dissolve in water, an increase in entropy would make the reaction spontaneous as the system would move to a more disordered state.
