Answer:
The ability to decompose
Explanation:
A property is a chemical property when it changes the chemical structure of a substance after a reaction.
Density and color are both physical properties.
Even though melting point may seem like a chemical property, when something melts, only the physical state changes, and the chemical structure does not change, and therefore, is a physical property.
The ability to decompose is a chemical property. When something decomposes, the chemical structure of many molecules change, and therefore, is classified as a chemical property.
10 cubic inches
We will use Boyle's law that states that for a fixed amount of an ideal gas kept at a fixed temperature, pressure and volume are inversely proportional.
P1 V1 = P2 V2
Where
P1 is initial pressure = 5 psi
V1 is initial volume = 20 cubic inch
P2 is final pressure = 10 psi
V2 is final volume = unknown
V2 = P1,V1 / P2
V2 = 20 × 5 / 10
V2 = 100/10
V2 = 10 cubic inches
If the uncertainty of a certain measurement instrument is not given, then it is assumed to be equal to half of the least count of that instrument. In this case, the least count is 10 ml, so half of this is 5 ml. Therefore, the graduated cylinder has an uncertainty of +/- 5 ml
Answer:
4.56 X 10^ -4 g/mL
Explanation:
A solution is prepared by diluting 6.0 mL of a 7.6 x 10-4 g/mL solution to a total volume of 10.0 mL. Calculate the concentration of the dilute solution.
(7.6 X10^-4 gm/m L) x( 6.0 m L ) = 45.6 X 10^-4 g
this is dissolved )in 10 m L=45.6 X 10^-4 g/ 10
4.56 X 10^ -4 g/mL
check
6/10 =0.6
4.56/7.6 = o.,6
Answer:
Ionic bonds hold charged particles in solid NaCl together, such that they are unable to move or conduct electricity.
Explanation:
Consider an electric current that flows through a conductor: charge moves in a uniform direction from one end of the conductor towards the other.
Thus, there are two conditions for a substance to conduct electricity:
- The substance shall contain charged particles, and
- These charged particles shall be free to move across the substance.
A conductor of electricity shall meet both requirements.
Now, consider the structure of solid NaCl
. NaCl is an ionic compound. It contains an ocean of oppositely charged ions:
- Positive
ions, and - Negative
ions.
Ions carry charge. Thus, solid NaCl contains charged particles and satisfies the first condition.
Inside solid NaCl
, electrostatic attractions ("ionic bonds") between the oppositely charged ions hold these ions in rigid ionic lattices. These ions are unable to move relative to each other. As a result, they cannot flow through the solid to conduct electricity. Under solid state, NaCl is unable to satisfy the second condition.
As a side note, melting NaCl into a liquid breaks the ionic bonds and free the ions from the lattice. Liquid NaCl is a conductor of electricity.
