b. Sugar and salt are both white, crystalline powders that dissolve in water. If you were given an unknown sample that contained

one or both of these solids, how could you determine what your unknown sample contained (without tasting it)? (2 points)

Answer:

Explanation:

Sugar and Salt even thought they both dissolve in water they both dissolve in different ways. When salt dissolves in water, its individual types of ions are torn apart from each other, while Sugar molecules stay together when dissolved in water, and therefore the molecules remain the same when dissolved in water. This being said in science using your senses can be just as valuable as using calculations. In this case both Sugar and Salt taste differently. Sugar is sweet while Salt is salty. Therefore tasting the substance can be the easiest and most accurate way of determining the substance.

Given the following equation: 2h20=2h2+02 how many grams of o2 are produced if 3.6 grams of h20 react?
inn [45]

Answer:

3.2 g O₂

Explanation:

To find the mass of O₂, you need to (1) convert grams H₂O to moles H₂O (via molar mass), then (2) convert moles H₂O to moles O₂ (via mole-to-mole ratio from reaction coefficients), and then (3) convert moles O₂ to grams O₂ (via molar mass). It is important to arrange the ratios/conversions in a way that allows for the cancellation of units (the desired unit should be in the numerator). The final answer should have 2 sig figs to reflect the sig figs of the given value (3.6 g).

Molar Mass (H₂O): 2(1.008 g/mol) + 15.998 g/mol

Molar Mass (H₂O): 18.014 g/mol

2 H₂O -----> 2 H₂ + 1 O₂

Molar Mass (O₂): 2(15.998 g/mol)

Molar Mass (O₂): 31.996 g/mol

3.6 g H₂O         1 mole               1 mole O₂           31.996 g
----------------  x  ---------------  x  ---------------------  x  ---------------  = 3.2 g O₂
                         18.014 g          2 moles H₂O          1 mole

salantis [7]

Answer:

1. Uniform, non visible

2. Visible, non uniform

3. Uniform, non visible

4. Visible, non uniform

5. Visible, non uniform

Explanation:

A heterogeneous mixture is simply any mixture that is not uniform in composition — it's a non-uniform mixture of smaller constituent parts. By contrast, a mixture that is uniform in composition is a homogenous mixture

visible state of matter is when you can easily difference two components of a mixture

non visible is when the state of the matter in the substance is not visible to the eye, it can't be differentiated

Quincy wants to see a real example of rock weathering. Where would be the best place for him to go? A. up on the roof of his hou
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

Option (D)

Explanation:

Weathering is usually defined as the disintegration of rocks at the surface of the earth. This break down of rocks is mainly caused by the geological processes that occur on the earth's surface. This process results in the formation of sediments that are transported and deposited in a new environment.

This weathering process primarily takes place in three different ways such as-

  • Physical weathering- Here, the rocks are broken down by the physical agents such as wind, water, ice.
  • Chemical weathering- Here the rocks are broken down when interacts with the chemical containing water.
  • Biological weathering- here, the rocks are broken down due to the activities done by organisms such as plants and animals.

In the given condition, Quincy can see a real example of rock weathering in the high mountainous region, as in the mountainous region the rocks are frequently weathered and eroded by the agents such as wind, water, and ice.

Thus, the correct answer is option (D).
