Physical changes:

- Try to scratch with other metals to find the hardness
- Try to deform to find the maleability
- Heat it and measure the temperature to find the melting point

Chemical changes 

- Put it in water to see if it reacts and if the reaction is violent (metals from group I and II react with water and Li, Na and K does it violently)

- Put it in acids of different strength, to observe if they react. Metals of second group react rapidly with acids. Other metals react only slowly with acids and others are almost inert.

- heat the metal until melts (physical change)

- attempt to react the metal with oxygen (chemical change)

- stretch the metal into a wire (physical change)

- attempt to react the metal with acid (chemical change)

Salt in crude oil must be removed before the oil undergoes processing in a refinery. The
irina1246 [14]

Answer:

\large \boxed{0.64 \, \%}

Explanation:

Assume you are using 1 L of water.

Then you are washing 4 L of salty oil.

1. Calculate the mass of the salty oil

Assume the oil has a density of 0.86 g/mL.

\text{Mass of oil} = \text{4000 mL} \times \dfrac{\text{0.86 g}}{\text{1 mL}} = \text{3440 g}

2. Calculate the mass of salt in the salty oil

\text{Mass of salt} = \text{3440 g} \times \dfrac{\text{5 g salt}}{\text{100 g oil}} = \text{172 g salt}

3. Calculate the mass of salt in the spent water

\text{Mass of salt} = \text{1000 g water} \times \dfrac{\text{15 g salt}}{\text{100 g water}} = \text{150 g salt}

4. Mass of salt remaining in washed oil

Mass = 172 g - 150 g = 22 g  

5. Concentration of salt in washed oil

\text{Concentration} = \dfrac{\text{22 g}}{\text{3440 g}} \times 100 \, \% = \mathbf{0.64 \, \%}\\\\\text{The concentration of salt in the washed oil is $\large \boxed{\mathbf{0.64 \, \%}}$}

How much heat must be removed from 25.0g of steam at 118.0C in order to form ice at 15C
NemiM [27]

Answer:

-10778.95 J heat must be removed in order to form the ice at 15 °C.

Explanation:

Given data:

mass of steam = 25 g

Initial temperature = 118 °C

Final temperature = 15 °C

Heat released = ?

Solution:

Formula:

q = m . c . ΔT

we know that specific heat of water is 4.186 J/g.°C

ΔT = final temperature - initial temperature

ΔT = 15 °C - 118 °C

ΔT = -103 °C

now we will put the values in formula

q = m . c . ΔT

q = 25 g × 4.186 J/g.°C × -103 °C

q = -10778.95 J

so, -10778.95 J heat must be removed in order to form the ice at 15 °C.

What is the net ionic equation for 2Sb(OH)3 (s) + 3Na2S (aq) = Sb2S3 + 6NaOH
tatuchka [14]

Answer:

2Sb^(+3) (aq) + 3S^(-2) (aq) = Sb_2•S_3

Explanation:

First of all, let us balance the equation to give;

2Sb(OH)3 (s) + 3Na2S (aq) = Sb2S3 + 3NaOH

Now, we can observe the presence of positive Sodium ions (Na+) and negative hydroxyl ions (OH-) on both left and right sides of the equation.

Now, the two ions will cancel out. These ions are not really involved in the overall reaction and thus do not require being written in the overall equation. Hence, the overall net ionic reaction can now be written as:

2Sb^(+3) (aq) + 3S^(-2) (aq) = Sb_2•S_3

How many grams of nano3 would you add to 500g of h2o in order to prepare a solution that is 0.500 molal in nano3?
VARVARA [1.3K]
When the concentration is expressed in molality, it is expressed in moles of solute per kilogram of solvent. Since we are given the mass of the solvent, which is water, we can compute for the moles of solute NaNO3.

0.5 m = x mol NaNO3/0.5 kg water
x = 0.25 mol NaNO3

Since the molar mass of NaNO3 is 85 g/mol, the mass is

0.25 mol * 85 g/mol = 21.25 grams NaNO3 needed
