It's Peggy Sue's birthday and she's about to blow out the candles on her cake. Brother Roger stops the party when he shouts: "Look at that! Chemical and physical changes taking places on your birthday cake!"How would you respond to Roger?
A) Roger is incorrect. The melting wax is a physical change but there is no chemical change taking place.
B) Roger is correct. Lighting the match is a chemical change and burning the candles is a physical change.
C) Roger is correct. The melting wax is a physical change and the burning candle wick is a chemical change.
D) Roger is incorrect. Only a chemical change is taking place as evidenced by the light and heat of the burning candles.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Melting of wax is a physical change and chemical change is the burning of candle.

What is chemical and physical changes?

Chemical changes are those changes by which composition of the original matter changes and physical changes are those changes by which only appearance of the matter changes.

In the given activity:

  • Melting of wax is a physical change because during this composition of wax not changes but only outer structure changes.
  • Burning of candle and lighting the match are chemical change as it produces energy in the form of heat and light.

Hence, Roger is correct ie. The melting wax is a physical change and the burning candle wick is a chemical change.

Answer 2
Answer: 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.

A substance has a mass of 10 grams and a volume of 5mL. What is its density?

Answers

Answer:

The answer is

2.0 g/mL

Explanation:

The density of a substance can be found by using the formula

density =  (mass)/(volume)

From the question

mass = 10 g

volume = 5 mL

The density of the substance is

density =  (10)/(5)

We have the final answer as

2.0 g/mL

Pb(NO3)2 (aq) + 2 NaI (aq) --> PbI2 (s) + 2 NaNO3 (aq)Starting with with 50.0 grams of Pb(NO3)2 and 30.0 grams of NaI:
A. What is the limiting reagent?
B. How many grams of the excess reactant remains?
C. How many grams of each product is formed?
D. If 12 grams of NaNO3 actually formed in the reaction, what is the percent yield of this reaction?

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Pb(NO3)2 (aq) + 2 NaI (aq) --> PbI2 (s) + 2 NaNO3 (aq)

MM for each compound -

Pb(NO3): 207 + 14x2 + 16x3x2 = 331

PI2: 207 + 127x2 = 461

NaI: 23 + 127 = 150

NaNO3: 23 + 14 + 16x3 = 85

Moles of Pb(NO3)2 = 50/331 = 0.15

Moles of NaI = 30/150 = 0.2

Ratio of moles is 1:2

So NaI is limiting

Limited to 0.2/2 = 0.1 mole of Pb(NO3)2

Excess = 0.15 - 0.1 = 0.05 mole

Mass remains = 0.05x331 = 16.55 grams

Moles of NaNO3 formed = Moles of NaI reacted = 0.2

Mass = 0.2x85 = 17 grams

Moles of PbI2 formed = Moles of Pb(NO3)2 reacted = 0.1

Mass = 0.1x461 = 46.1 grams

If 12 grams of NaNO3 actually formed in the reaction,

percent yield = 12/17x100% = 70.6%

Answer:

Explanation:

Moles of Pb(NO3)2 =  mass/molecular mass

= 50.0 grams/(207.20*1 + 14.01*2 + 16*6)

= 50.0 grams/331.22

= 0.15 moles

Moles of NaI

= 30/(22.99+126.9)

= 30/149.89

= 0.2 Moles

A. NaI is less 2x Pb(NO3)2 so NaI is the limiting reagent.

B. The ratio is 1 to 2 so there is 0.15 - 0.2/2 = 0.05 mole

or 16.78 grams of Pb(NO3)2 left.

C. As NaI is limiting, only 0.2 Moles of NaNO3 is formed.

Mass =  Moles * Molecular Mass

Molecular Mass of NaNO3 can be calculated as:  

Na - 22.99

N - 14.01

O - 3(16) = 48

23+14+48 = 85gram / mole

Thus, Mass =  0.2*85  = 17 gram of NaNO3

Mass is conserved in a chemical reaction.

Mass of PbI2 can be calculated as:

50+30-16.78-17

= 46.3 gram of PbI2

Mass =  

12.75

Thus, 12.75g of Sodium Nitrate can be formed

Sodium's atomic number is 11. What does this tell you about an atom of sodium?

Answers

This tells us that an atom of sodium contains 11 electrons which is balanced by 11 protons. The atomic mass of the atom is then the sum of the protons and neutrons. If you know the atomic mass of sodium, you can subtract 11 (protons) to get the number of neutrons.

Consider the reaction C12H22O11(s)+12O2(g)→12CO2(g)+11H2O(l) in which 10.0 g of sucrose, C12H22O11, was burned in a bomb calorimeter with a heat capacity of 7.50 kJ/∘C. The temperature increase inside the calorimeter was found to be 22.0 ∘C. Calculate the change in internal energy, ΔE, for this reaction per mole of sucrose.

Answers

Answer:

the change in internal energy per mole of sucrose is 5989 KJ/mol

Explanation:

Since the calorimeter is a bomb calorimeter , where the volume remains constant

ΔE= Qrx

And assuming no heat losses to the surroundings

Qv + Qrx = 0

Cc*ΔT - Qrx = 0 ,

Qrx = Cc * ΔT = 7.50 KJ/°C * 22 °C = 165 KJ

the change in internal energy is calculated dividing by the number of sucrose moles involved n. the molecular weight of sucrose is

Mw= 12* 12g/mol + 22* 1g/mol + 11* 16 g/mol = 342 g/mol

n = m / Mw = 10 g / 342 g/mol = 0.029 mol

the change in internal energy per mole of sucrose is

Δe= ΔE/n = 165 KJ/0.029 mol = 5989 KJ/mol
