Answer:

magnesium metal melts = physical change

magnesium metal ignites = chemical change

Explanation:

<em>Physical changes</em> are those in which the identity of the subtance <u>remains unaltered</u>. No new compounds are formed. They involve generally changes in <u>agreggation states of matter</u>: solid, liquid or gas. The first experiment, in which magnesium metal melts is a physical change because it only changes the state of matter, from solid to liquid, but it is still magnesium metal.

Conversely, <em>chemical changes</em> involve atoms combinations to form new compounds. The second experiment, in which magnesium metal ignites, is a chemical change. After the change, magnesium metal is no longer the metal but a metal oxide.

1) D = 13.6 g / mL

2)ethyl alcohol weighs 158g

3)ρ _copper = 8.9 g cm^{3}

Explanation:

1)

D = m / V

=306.0 g / 22.5 mL

D= 13.6 g / mL

2)

density = mass / volume

mass = density × volume  

=0.789g /ml × 200.0 ml

M=158g

Ethyl alcohol weighs 158g

3)

ρ  (density) = Mass  / Volume

ρ _copper = 1896 g / 8.4cm × 5.5cm × 4.6cm

= 1896g / 212.5 cm^{3}

ρ _copper=8.9 g cm^{3}
