Describe two physical properties of matter and how those properties are measured.

1 answer:

4 0

Answer:

Density, solubility, melting point, boiling point, polarity, etc.

Density - Mass divided by volume = density (scale and beaker can be used)

Boiling point- Can be determined by the capillary method (where an inverted capillary is put in the liquid you’re finding out for and the liquid is heated)

What is the average atomic mass of the element?

morpeh [17]

The average atomic mass of element X is 14.007 u.

The average atomic mass of X is the weighted average of the atomic masses of its isotopes.

We multiply the atomic mass of each isotope by a number representing its relative importance (i.e., its % abundance).

Thus,

0.996 36 × 14.003 u =13.952 03 u

0.003 64 × 15.000 u = 0.054 60 u

__________TOTAL = 14.007 u

Three common gaseous compounds of nitrogen and oxygen of different elementary composition are known: (A) laughing gas containing

Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

Please find how these data prove the law of multiple proportions below

Explanation:

The law of multiple proportions was proposed by an English chemist called John Dalton. The law states that when two elements combine and to form more than one compound. The weights/masses of the second element in the two compounds, which combines with a fixed ratio of the first element, is in a simple whole number ratio.

In this question, Nitrogen is said to combine with oxygen to give three different compounds as follows:

A) laughing gas containing 63.65% nitrogen i.e. 0.6365g

This means that the mass of oxygen will be (1-0.6365) = 0.3635g

B) colorless gas containing 46.68% nitrogen i.e. 0.4668g

This means that the mass of oxygen will be 0.5332g

C) brown toxic gas containing 30.45% nitrogen i.e. 0.3045g

This means that the mass of oxygen will be 0.6955g

The ratios of oxygen in the three compounds is therefore:

0.3635: 0.5332: 0.6955

Divide this ratio by the smallest number (0.3635)

0.3635/0.3635 = 1

0.5332/0.3635 = 1.467

0.6955/0.3635 = 1.913

Multiply this ratio by 2, we have:

2: 2.9 : 3.8

Hence, the simple whole number ratio is 2:3:4.

This proves the law of multiple proportions that oxygen is in simple whole number ratio in the three different compounds.

Pharmacists sometimes measure medicines in the unit of "grains," where 1 gr = 65 mg. The label on a bottle of aspirin reads "Asp

viva [34]

Answer:

325mg of Aspririn

Explanation:

First you should note the information that the problem gives you:

- The bottle of Aspirin has 5gr (grains)

- 1gr(grain) = 65mg (miligrams)

Also, the problem is asking about how many aspirin are in 5 gr (grains), so you should use a conversion factor, as follows:

-First you should put the quantity you need to convert:

$5grAspirin$

-Then you write the denominator of the conversion factor that must have the same units that you want to convert, in this case gr:

$5grAspirin*\frac{}{1grAspirin}$

-Then you write the numerator with the units that you want to obtain and the numerical equivalence between the units, in this case:

$5grAspirin*\frac{65mgAspririn}{1grAspirin}$

-Finally you multiply numerators and divide by denominators:

$5grAspirin*\frac{65mgAspririn}{1grAspirin}=325mgAspririn$

What are the base units the SI units are based on? A-10 B-100 C-1,000 D-1

Olegator [25]

Answer:

A-10

Explanation:

In the SI, designations of multiples and subdivision of any unit may be arrived at by combining with the name of the unit the prefixes deka, hecto, and kilo meaning, respectively, 10, 100, and 1000, and deci, centi, and milli, meaning, respectively, one-tenth, one-hundredth, and one-thousandth.
