A physical change is a change in the state or properties of matter without any accompanying change in the chemical identities of the substances contained in the matter. Physical changes are observed when wax melts, when sugar dissolves in coffee, and when steam condenses into liquid water. Other examples of physical changes include magnetizing and demagnetizing metals (as is done with common anti-theft security tags) and grinding solids into powders (which can sometimes yield noticeable changes in color).

The characteristics that distinguish one substance from another are called properties. A physical property is a characteristic of matter that is not associated with a change in its chemical composition. Familiar examples of physical properties include density, color, hardness, melting and boiling points, and electrical conductivity. Some physical properties, such as density and color, may be observed without changing the physical state of the matter. Other physical properties, such as the melting temperature of iron or the freezing temperature of water, can only be observed as matter undergoes a physical change

Figure :Copper and nitric acid undergo a chemical change to form copper nitrate and brown, gaseous nitrogen dioxide. During the combustion of a match, cellulose in the match and oxygen from the air undergo a chemical change to form carbon dioxide and water vapor. Cooking red meat causes a number of chemical changes, including the oxidation of iron in myoglobin that results in the familiar red-to-brown color change.

chemical change always produces one or more types of matter that differ from the matter present before the change. The formation of rust is a chemical change because rust is a different kind of matter than the iron, oxygen, and water present before the rust formed. The explosion of nitroglycerin is a chemical change because the gases produced are very different kinds of matter from the original substance. Other examples of chemical changes include reactions that are performed in a lab (such as copper reacting with nitric acid), all forms of combustion (burning), and food being cooked, digested, or rotting. Note that the number of atoms for a given element is calculated by multiplying the coefficient of any formula containing that element by the element’s subscript in the formula. If an element appears in more than one formula on a given side of the equation, the number of atoms represented in each must be computed and then added together. For example, both product species in the example reaction, CO2 and H2O, contain the element oxygen, and so the number of oxygen atoms on the product side of the equation is

(1 CO2 molecule × 2 O atoms per CO2 molecule) + (2 H2O molecules × 1 O atom per H2O(molecule) = 4 O atoms

The equation for the reaction between methane and oxygen to yield carbon dioxide and water is confirmed to be balanced per this approach, as shown here: CH 4 + 2O2⟶CO2 + 2H2O

Element Reactants Products Balanced?

C 1×1 = 1 1×1 = 1 1 = 1, yes

H 4×1 = 4 2×2 = 4 4 = 4, yes

O 2×2 = 4 (1×2) + (2×1) = 4 4 = 4, yes

A balanced chemical equation often may be derived from a qualitative description of some chemical reaction by a fairly simple approach known as balancing by inspection. Consider as an example the decomposition of water to yield molecular hydrogen and oxygen. This process is represented qualitatively by an unbalanced chemical equation: H2O⟶H2 + O2 (unbalanced)

Comparing the number of H and O atoms on either side of this equation confirms its imbalance:

Element Reactants Products Balanced?

H 1×2 = 2 1×2 = 2 2 = 2, yes

O 1×1 = 1 1×2 = 2 1 ≠ 2, no

H2O to H2 O2 would yield balance in the number of atoms, but doing so also changes the reactant’s identity (it’s now hydrogen peroxide and not water). The O atom balance may be achieved by changing the coefficient for H2O to 2.

2H2O⟶H2 + O2 (unbalanced)

Element Reactants Products Balanced?

H 2×2 = 4 1×2 = 2 4 ≠ 2, no

O 2×1 = 2 1×2 = 2 2 = 2, yes

The H atom balance was upset by this change, but it is easily reestablished by changing the coefficient for the H2 product to 2.

2H2O⟶2H2 + O2 (balanced)

Element Reactants Products Balanced?

H 2×2 = 4 2×2 = 4 4 = 4, yes

O 2×1 = 2 1×2 = 2 2 = 2, yes

These coefficients yield equal numbers of both H and O atoms on the reactant and product sides, and the balanced equation is, therefore:

2H2O⟶2H2 + O2

Types of Chemical Reactions

Humans interact with one another in various and complex ways, and we classify these interactions according to common patterns of behavior. When two humans exchange information, we say they are communicating. When they hit each other with their fists, we say they are fighting

What is the pressure of 4 moles of helium in a 50 L tank at 308k using PV=nRT
Ilya [14]

Hey there!:

p = ??

n = 4 moles

V = 50 L

T = 308 K

R =  0.082 atm

p*V = n * R * T

p * 50 = 4 * 0.082 * 308

p*50 = 101.024

p = 101.024 / 50

p = 2.020 atm


Hope that helps!

What should i write on a essay about glue and liquid corn starch
PolarNik [594]
Hmm... interesting topic you're writing about here!
Well, for this essay, there must be specific criteria, correct? I'll make some suggestions, but of course you don't have to go by them if you don't like 'em. So... here they are!:

- List the physical and chemical properties of glue
- List the physical and chemical properties of liquid corn starch
- Compare and contrast the physical and chemical properties of glue with the physical and chemical properties of liquid corn starch
- You can conduct some experiments with the two substances also! You can mix the two together and see how they react with each other, and incorporate the results of the experiment into your essay.
- You can mix glue with some other liquid substances too, and incorporate your results into your essay. You can see whether each substance the glue mixes with creates a homogeneous or heterogeneous mixture, etc.
- You can mix liquid corn starch with some other liquid substances too, and incorporate your results into your essay. You can see whether each substance the liquid corn starch mixes with creates a homogeneous or heterogeneous mixture, etc.

That's all I can come up with at the moment. Maybe you'll take some of these suggestions into consideration...? Anyhow, I hope I helped somehow! :)

PCl3(g) + Cl2(g) ⇋ PCl5(g) Kc = 91.0 at 400 K. What is the [Cl2] at equilibrium if the initial concentrations were 0.24 M for PC
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

[Cl₂] in equilibrium is 1.26 M

Explanation:

This is the equilibrium:

PCl₃(g) + Cl₂(g) ⇋ PCl₅(g)

Kc = 91

So let's analyse, all the process:

                PCl₃(g)        +        Cl₂(g)     ⇋        PCl₅(g)

Initially     0.24 M                 1.50M                 0.12 M

React           x                           x                         x

Some amount of compound has reacted during the process.

In equilibrium we have

              0.24 - x                  1.50 - x                  0.12 + x

As initially we have moles of product, in equilibrium we have to sum them.

Let's make the expression for Kc

Kc = [PCl₅] / [Cl₂] . [PCl₃]

91 = (0.12 + x) / (0.24 - x) ( 1.50 - x)

91 = (0.12 + x) / (0.36 - 0.24x - 1.5x + x²)          

91 (0.36 - 0.24x - 1.5x + x²) = (0.12 + x)

32.76 - 158.34x + 91x² = 0.12 +x

32.64 - 159.34x + 91x² = 0

This a quadratic function:

a = 91; b= -159.34; c = 32.64

(-b +- √(b² - 4ac)) / 2a

Solution 1 = 1.5

Solution 2 = 0.23 (This is our value)

So [Cl₂] in equilibrium is 1.50 - 0.23 = 1.26 M
