Answer:

B. It undergoes a physical change.

Explanation:

At room temperature, the iron atoms are in an unusual loosely packed open arrangement; as iron is heated past 912 degrees Celsius, the atoms become more closely packed before loosening again at 1,394 degrees Celsius and ultimately melting at 1,538 degrees Celsius.

Answer:

B. It undergoes a physical change.

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, since we know that chemical changes lead to the formation of new atoms and/or compounds due to the bonds rearrangement of the initial substances and the physical changes occur without changing the composition of the initial substances, we can infer that, since melting is a process that changes the phase of matter from solid to liquid without changing the identity of the initial substance, the answer to this question would be B. It undergoes a physical change. because the other options describe chemical changes.

Best regards!

Juliette [100K]
The single most important chemical weathering agent is Carbon dioxide.
Weathering refers to the process that change the physical and chemical character of rock at or near the surface. Weathering has a dramatic impact on the composition of Earth's atmosphere. Chemical weathering removes carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, allowing it to be transformed into limestone and stored in the crust. Without chemical weathering, the elevated levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere would have long made Earth too hot to sustain life.

Assume that silver and gold form ideal, random mixtures. Calculate the mass of pure Ag needed to cause an entropy increase of 20
KengaRu [80]

Answer:

m_{Ag}=2,265.9g

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since the definition of entropy in a random mixture is:

\Delta S=-n_TR\Sigma[x_i*ln(x_i)]

For this silver-gold mixture we write:

\Delta S=-(n_{Au}+n_{Ag})R\Sigma[\frac{n_{Au}}{n_{Au}+n_{Ag}} *ln(\frac{n_{Au}}{n_{Au}+n_{Ag}} )+\frac{n_{Ag}}{n_{Au}+n_{Ag}} *ln(\frac{n_{Ag}}{n_{Au}+n_{Ag}} )]

By knowing the moles of gold:

n_{Au}=100g*\frac{1mol}{197g} =0.508mol

It is possible to write the aforementioned formula in terms of the variable x representing the moles of silver:

20\frac{J}{mol}=-(0.508+x)8.314\frac{J}{mol*K} \Sigma[\frac{0.508}{0.508+x} *ln(\frac{0.508}{0.508+x} )+\frac{x}{0.508+x} *ln(\frac{x}{0.508+x} )]

Which can be solved via Newton-Raphson or a solver software, in this case, I will provide you the answer:

x=n_{Ag}=21.0molAg

So the mass is:

m_{Ag}=21.0mol*\frac{107.9g}{1mol}\\ \\m_{Ag}=2,265.9g

Best regards!
