Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

Iodine solution is used to test for starch.  A positive test for starch gives a blue-black color.

The fact that the color of the apple remained the same is indicative of the fact that starch was not contained in the apple.

A change in the color of potato indicates the presence of starch in the potato.

The fact that iodine did not react with apple should not be taken to mean that apples contain no starch at all. Starch changes gradually to sugar as fruits ripen. This is why the apple gave a negative test for starch.

What is the value for ∆Soreaction for the following reaction, given the standard entropy values?
Soloha48 [4]
To get the ∆S of the reaction, we simply have to add the ∆S of the reactants and the ∆S of the products. Then, we get the difference between the ∆S of the products and the ∆S of the products. If the <span>∆S is negative, then the reaction spontaneous. If the otherwise, the reaction is not spontaneous.</span>

Calculate the percent by mass of a solution of Ca(NO3)2 that has 22.63 g dissolved in 896.92 g of water.
never [62]

Hey there!

To calculate the percent by mass of the Ca(NO₃)₂ we need to find the total mass first by adding.

896.92 + 22.63 = 919.55

In total, the solution is 919.55 grams.

To find the percent of Ca(NO₃)₂ in the solution, divide the mass of Ca(NO₃)₂ by the total mass and multiply by 100.

22.63 ÷ 919.55 = 0.0246

0.0246 x 100 = 2.46

Ca(NO₃)₂ makes up 2.46% of the solution.

Hope this helps!

Ivan

Answer:

The correct answer is - a physical change because the material remains the same.

Explanation:

A chemical change is the change that results in the formation of the new element or the substance whereas the physical change remains the same material or substance even after the change.

The physical change can be a change in density, size, shape, or volume, and other properties. In the recycling of the aluminum can the material remain the same only shape or size of the aluminum change order to reuse.
