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.

The molar mass of Cr(OH)2 is:
son4ous [18]

The molar mass of Cr(OH)_2 is 86.02 g/mole .

<h3><u> Explanation:</u> </h3>

The molar mass of a chemical compound is represented as the mass of a unit of that compound separated by the number of substances in that unit, measured in moles. The molar mass is a volume, not molecular, the property of a substance.

The molar mass is a percentage of various examples of the compound, which usually change in mass due to the appearance of isotopes.

From the below attached table, the Molar mass of Cr(OH)_2 is 86.0108 g/mol.

a. pH=2.07

b. pH=3

c. pH=8

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

pH=-log [H⁺]

a) 0.1 M HF Ka = 7.2 x 10⁻⁴

HF= weak acid

\tt [H^+]=\sqrt{Ka.M}\\\\(H^+]=\sqrt{7.2.10^{-4}\times 0.1}\\\\(H^+]=8.5\times 10^{-3}\\\\pH=3-log~8.5=2.07

b) 1 x 10⁻³ M HNO₃

HNO₃ = strong acid

\tt pH=-log[1\times 10^{-3}]=3

c) 1 x 10⁻⁸ M HCl

\tt pH=-log[1\times 10^{-8}]=8

Classify the following substituents according to whether they are electron donors or electron acceptors relative to hydrogen by
igor_vitrenko [27]

Species that have a lone pair of electrons often donate electrons by resonance while substituents that are electron deficient take away electrons by resonance.

<h3>What is resonance?</h3>

The term resonace has to do with the movement of electron pairs in a molecule. Inductive effects has to do with the drawing of electron density towards an atom or bond.

The two effects depends on the nature of a substituent. For instance, species that have a lone pair of electrons often donate electrons by resonance while substituents that are electron deficient take away electrons by resonance.

The question is incomplete hence the exact nature of the substituents can not be determined.
