Henry mixed salt and water together in a cup until he observed a clear solution. He measured the mass of the solution. Then he p

laced the cup outside for several sunny days during the summer. After a week, he observed that only solid salt remained in the cup and the mass had decreased. Henry concluded that a physical and chemical change occurred in this investigation.
Which statements correctly defend or dispute his conclusion?

1- He is correct. Dissolving salt in water is a physical change, but evaporating the water is a chemical change. Formation of a solid is evidence that a chemical change occurred.
He is correct. Evaporation is a physical change, but dissolving salt in water is a chemical change. The change in mass is evidence that a chemical change occurred.


2- He is incorrect. Dissolving salt in water and evaporation of the water are both physical changes. The reappearance of salt is evidence that the change was reversible by a physical change, so it could not be a chemical change.


3- He is incorrect. Dissolving salt in water and evaporation of the water are both chemical changes. The reappearance of salt is evidence that the change was reversible by a chemical change, so it could not be a physical change.

Answer:  

He is correct. Evaporation is a physical change, but dissolving salt in water is a chemical change. The change in mass is evidence that a chemical change occurred.

Explanation:

Dissolving Salt in water is a<u> Chemical Change, </u>Because the Salt arrangement is different in solid state than dissolved in water. As we can see in the image below, once the Salt is dissolved, it is separated into its ions, Na+ and Cl-

Now, The evaporation process is a <u>physical change,</u> because the water doesn´t change its configuration H20 and it only changes its form, as we can see in the image below.

Statement 2 is correct.
solids moving into solution is a physical change as the core structure of the molecules remain the same. evaporation of water and crystallization of salt are both physical changes as well.
The water does not change it's H2O chemical makeup because salt was dissolved into it.

Calculate the concentration in mol L^-1 of ammonium ions in a solution prepared by mixing 360 mL of 0.250 mol L^-1 ammonium sulf
Mnenie [13.5K]

In order to determine the concentration of ammonium ions in the solution prepared by mixing solutions of ammonium sulfate, (NH4)2SO4, and ammonium nitrate, first calculate the amount of ammonium ions for each solution.<span>

<span>For ammonium sulfate sol'n: 0.360 L x 0.250 mol(NH4)2SO4/ L x 2 mol NH4+ /1 mol(NH4)2SO4 = 0.18 mol NH4+
<span>For ammonium nitrate sol'n: 0.675 x 1.2 mol NH4NO3/L x 1 mol NH4+ /1 molNH4NO3 = 0.81 mol NH4+

Thus, the amount of NH4+ ions is (0.18 + 0.81) mol or 0.99 mol NH4+. To get the concentration, multiply this to the volume of solution which is assumed to be additive, such that:</span></span></span>

M NH4+ in sol’n = 0.99 mol NH4+/1.035 L = 0.9565 mol NH4+/ L sol’n

Why are chemists interested in studying thermochemistry? a. Heat is often absorbed during reactions.b. Heat is often released du
Wittaler [7]

Answer:

a. Heat is often absorbed during reactions.

c. Heat is often released during chemical reactions.

Explanation:

Thermochemistry -

The study of thermochemistry involve the change in the amount of heat , during any physical or chemical process , is referred to as thermodynamics .

The focus of thermochemistry is on the changing amount of energy in the form of heat , on the system with respect to the surroundings .

The process like boiling , melting , sublimation , may require energy or releases energy , and hence are studied under thermochemistry .

Hence , from the given question ,

The correct options are -  a , c.
