This example is an controversial matter because melting an candle is considered as both physical change and chemical change because no new substances were made by melting an candle. The final answer is C.
Answer:
Three. Also known as a triplet code.
Answer: By performing the flame test
Explanation:
The flame test can be performed by the teacher to visually identify the substance in the solution. The metals give a characteristic color on burning. The heat of the flame causes the excitation of the electrons present in the metal ions this leads to release of energy along with the emission of visible wavelength of light. This visible light can be observed by human eye. For example, the copper produces the blue color in flame, barium gives green flame, and sodium gives yellow flame.
The mass of hydrated salt - 2.123 g
mass of anhydrous salt - 1.861 g
mass that has been reduced is the mass of water that has been heated and lost from the compound thereby making the salt anhydrous.
therefore mass of water lost - 2.123 - 1.861 = 0.262 g
number of moles of water lost - 0.262 g / 18 g/mol = 0.0146 mol
number of moles of salt - 1.861 g / 380.6 g/mol = 0.00490 mol
molar ratio of moles of water to moles of salt
molar ratio = 0.146 mol / 0.00490 mol = 2.98 rounded off to 3
for every 1 mol of salt there are 3 moles of water
therefore empirical formula - Cu₃(PO₄)₂.3H₂O
There are 18. In each molecule of Fe(NO3)2 there are 6 oxygen atoms because you have 2 nitrate (NO3) components which each contain 3 oxygen atoms. 2 x 3 = 6. Because you have 3 molecules of Fe(NO3)2, you need to multiply 6 by 3, which gives you 18 oxygen atoms.
