Answer:

Water is a compound. It contains more than one element: hydrogen and oxygen atoms are joined together; as illustrated in the video clip Elements and Compounds, above. ... Water is not simply a mixture of hydrogen and oxygen; it contains hydrogen and oxygen atoms linked together in an ordered way.

Answer with Explanation:

Water is a compound because it consists of two types of atoms (Hydrogen and Oxygen) that are chemically bonded. An "element" only consists of one type of atom, therefore, water is not an element but a compound. Its chemical formula is: $H_{2} O$ . This means that water consists of 2 atoms of Hydrogen that are bonded to an atom of Oxygen. Take note that a compound is different compared to the elements that it is made of. For example, water is essentially liquid in its form but it is different from the atoms of Hydrogen and Oxygen, which are gas in form.

Make the following conversions. Show your calculations.

Natalija [7]

Answer:

1. 500 cm = 5 m

2. 1000 g = 1 kg

3. 455 L = 45, 500 cL

4. 0.865 m = 0.00865 m or 8.65 * 10^-3 n

5. 33.5 cm = 335 mm

6. 0.0198 m = 19800 micrometers

7. 57.65 cg = 5.765 * 10^8 nanograms

8. 1000 L = 1 kl

9. 99 degrees F = 37.222 degrees C

Explanation:

1. One meter = 100 centimeters

500 centimeters/ 100 centimeters = 5 meters

2. One kilogram = 1000 grams.

1000 grams/1000 grams = 1 kilogram

3. One Liter = 100 centiliters

455 liters * 100 centiliters = 45, 500 centiliters

4. One meter = 100 centimeters

0.865 centimeters/100 centimeters = 0.00865 meters

5. One centimeter = 10 millimeters

33.5 centimeters * 10 millimeters = 335 millimeters

6. One meter = 1.0 * 10^6 micrometers

0.0198 meters * 1 * 10^6 micrometers = 19800 micrometers.

7. One centigram = 1.0 * 10^7 nanograms

57.65 centigrams * 1 * 10^7 nanograms = 5.765 * 10^8 nanograms.

8. One kiloliter = 1000 L

1000 L/ 1000 L = 1 kiloliter

9. The formula for finding Celsius is 5/9(f - 32)

So 5/9(99 - 32) = x

5/9(67) = x

x = 335/9 or 37.222 degrees Celsius.

In calculating the equilibrium constant for a reaction, the coefficients of the chemical equation are used as exponents for the

BartSMP [9]

Answer: The given statement is TRUE.

Explanation:

An equilibrium reaction is one in which rate of forward reaction is equal to the rate of backward reaction.

Equilibrium constant is defined as the ratio of the product of the concentration of products to the product of the concentration of reactants each raised to their stochiometric coefficient.

For example for the given equilibrium reaction;

$2H_2O(g)\leftrightharpoons 2H_2(g)+O_2(g)$

$K_{eq}=\frac{[H_2]^2[O_2]}{[H_2O]^2}$

Thus the given statement that in calculating the equilibrium constant for a reaction, the coefficients of the chemical equation are used as exponents for the factors in the equilibrium expression is True.

Drawing Conclusions

Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

The situation given here is imaginary such that the life of Rock has to be found using the half-life of the element lokium that has been found inside the rock.

Explanation:

Half-life of any material is the amount of time taken by that particular material to decay. Now the amount of lokium found in rock can show after how many half-lives this amount has been left out.

The time elapsed will be log (L) atoms X half-life.
