explain why samples of gold and copper can have the same extensive properties, but not the same intensive properties

Chemistry

vivado [14]3 years ago

Extensive properties, as volume and mass, depend on the amount of material. So, you can have a sample of gold and a sample of copper with the same volume as long as you have different amount of each one.

On the other hand, intensive properties do not depend on the amound of material but on the chemical constitution of the material. Density is an intensive property, so gold and copper have different densities. That is why you can use intensive properties to characterize different materials.

melomori [17]
Ionization energy (IE) is the amount of energy required to remove an electron.

If you observe the IEs sequentially, there is a large gap between the 2nd and 3rd. This suggests it is difficult to remove more than 2 two electrons. Elements that lose two electrons to become more stable are found in the Group 2A (2 representing the number of electrons in the outermost valence shell).

How many fluorine atoms bond with calcium to form calcium fluoride? one two three four five
Elena-2011 [213]
Calcium fluoride.
Ca is metal, F is non-metal, so they form ionic bond.
Ca as metal can form only positive ion. Ca in the second group, so the charge of Ca ion is 2+.   Ca²⁺
F is in the 17th group, so it has 7 electrons on the last level. It is non-metal, non-metal, so it has negative charge -(8-7)=-1. "8" because on the last level cannot be more than 8 electrons. F-ion is F¹⁻.

Ca²⁺  F¹⁻
Number of positive charges should be equal to number of negative charges,
Formula of calcium fluoride
CaF2.
2 atoms Fluorine bond with Calcium.

Mr. Smith is hyperglycemic with a blood glucose level of 300mg/ml of blood. Explain how homeostasis would regulate his glucose l
aleksley [76]

Answer:

When the animal has eaten food and the blood glucose level in the body increases. The pancreas cells in the body detects the increase in the blood glucose which leads to increase the insulin hormone.

This decreases the blood glucose level in the level. This is how the negative feedback works in the body if the level of glucose increases.

Negative feedback is the way by which the body maintains homeostasis and maintains equilibrium in the body.

Of the following, ________ should have the highest critical temperature. Of the following, ________ should have the highest crit
3241004551 [841]

Answer:

H2

Explanation:

Critical temperature is the temperature above which gas cannot be liquefied, regardless of the pressure applied.

Critical temperature directly depends on the force of attraction between atoms, it means stronger the force of higher will be the critical temperature. So, from the given options H2 should have the highest critical temperature because of high attractive forces due to H bonding.

Hence, the correct option is H2.

Calcium carbide, CaC2, reacts with water to form calcium hydroxide and the flammable gas ethyne (acetylene) in the reaction: Wha
AysviL [449]

Answer:

1 mole of CaC₂ will produce 26g of C₂H₂ or 64.1g of CaC₂ will produce 26g of C₂H₂

Explanation:

Hello,

To solve this question, we'll require a balanced chemical equation of reaction between calcium carbide and water.

Equation of reaction

CaC₂ + 2H₂O → Ca(OH)₂ + C₂H₂

Molar mass of calcium carbide (CaC₂) = 64.1g/mol

Molar mass of water (H₂O) = 18g/mol

Molar mass of calcium hydroxide (Ca(OH)₂) = 74g/mol

Molar mass of ethyne (C₂H₂) = 26g/mol

From the equation of reaction, 1 mole of CaC₂ will produce 1 mole of C₂H₂

1 mole of CaC₂ = mass / molar mass

Mass = 1 × 64.1

Mass = 64.1g

1 mole of C₂H₂ = mass / molar mass

Mass = 1 × 26

Mass = 26g

Therefore, 1 mole of CaC₂ will produce 26g of C₂H₂

Note: this is a hypothetical calculation since we were not given the initial mass of CaC₂ that starts the reaction
