Answer:

B) -4.1 units

Explanation:

According to this question, a state property X has a value 89.6 units. It undergoes the certain changes as follows:

- first increase by 3.6 units

- then increase by another 18.7 units

- then decrease by 12.2 units

- and finally attains a value of 85.5 units

This can be mathematically represented by 89.6 - {3.6 + 18.7 - 12.2 - x) = 85.5

To get x, we say;

89.6 + 3.6 = 93.2

93.2 + 18.7 = 111.9

111.9 - 12.2 = 99.7

99.7 - 85.5 = 14.2units.

The changes that occured is represented as follows:

= (3.6 + 18.7) - (12.2 + 14.2)

= 22.3 - 26.4

= -4.1 units

Ionic crystals are excellent insulators and can hold a large amount of heat before melting or boiling.
sweet-ann [11.9K]
It is a true fact that ionic crystals are excellent insulators and can hold a large amount of heat before melting or boiling. The correct option among the two options that are given in the question is the first option. Salt is a great example of ionic crystals and we know that it takes a huge amount of time to melt or boil.

which of these is an example of a chemical change A breaking glass B mealting ice on a windshield C burning gasoline D denting a
Nonamiya [84]

Lets do process of elimination!

A. Breaking glass - That is a psychical change because if you break it, it is still glass. It didn't change to another substance.

B. Melting ice on a windshield - During the melting process, there is no chemical change, and therefore, no new substance is created.  

C. Burning gasoline - When gas burns it usually combines with oxygen to give carbon dioxide, water etc.  It is a chemical change.

D. Denting a bumper - The bumper is still a bumper, only thing is it has a dent in it. The properties did not change, meaning no chemical change.

How would having too much sample in the melting point tube most likely affect the melting point measurement? Select the correct
oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer:

2-4 mm height of capillary tube.

Explanation:

Sample should be around 2-4 mm in height.

It should be packed well so that it does not have air packets that caues the lowering of melting point.

If you take greater amount, then there will be needed more heat, resulting a wide range of melting point.

Write an equation that expresses the law of thermodynamics in terms of heat and work
Anettt [7]

We write DE = q+w, where DE is the internal energy change and q and w are heat and work, respectively.

(b)Under what conditions will the quantities q and w be negative numbers?

q is negative when heat flows from the system to the surroundings, and w is negative when the system does work on the surroundings.

As an aside: In applying the first law, do we need to measure the internal energy of a system? Explain.

The absolute internal energy of a system cannot be measured, at least in any practical sense. The internal energy encompasses the kinetic energy of all moving particles in the system, including subatomic particles, as well as the electrostatic potential energies between all these particles. We can measure the change in internal energy (DE) as the result of a chemical or physical change, but we cannot determine the absolute internal energy of either the initial or the final state. The first law allows us to calculate the change in internal energy during a transformation by calculating the heat and work exchanged between the system and its surroundings.
