Only the solid phase.
When lit all three phases of matter are present, solid, liquid and gas. The candle itself is still solid. But liquid wax pools under the flame. And the flame itself is releasing gases consisting mostly of water vapor and carbon dioxide. Many consider the flame is in another state of matter, the plasma state. It's a high energy state of matter exhibited by stars, flames and lightning.

Answer:

As explained below.

Explanation:

  • In an unlighted, the solid phase can be seen when it's in solid shape and not ignited when it starts to burn it's said to have entered into the liquid phase or wax phase.
  • The liquid phase is to be part of the chemical reaction because the chemical reactions are seen when it is lit with the presence of oxygen and the last phase of gas is given out in the form of flames of fire upon burning as to give out carbon dioxide and ash.

The human body is 0.0040% iron. How many milligrams of iron does a 165 pound person contain?​
Fofino [41]

Answer:

in a body of 165 pounds, the iron content is 2993.707 mg

Explanation:

  • % iron = 0.0040% = (mass iron / mass human) * 100

⇒ mass iron / mass human = 4 E-5

∴ mass human = 165 pounds

⇒ mass iron = 165 pounds * 4 E-5

⇒ mass iron = 6.6 E-3 pounds * ( 453.592 g/pound ) * ( 1000 mg/g )

⇒ mass iron = 2993.707 mg iron

Acetaminophen (pictured) is a popular nonaspirin, "over-the-counter" pain reliever. what is the mass % (calculate to 4 significa
77julia77 [94]

Acetaminophen as a chemical formula of C8H9NO2. The molar masses are:

C8H9NO2 = 151.163 g/mol

C = 12 g/mol

H = 1 g/mol

N = 14 g/mol

O = 16 g/mol

 

<span>TO get the mass percent, simply multiply the molar mass of each elements  with the number of the element divide by the molar mass of acetaminophen, that is:</span>

%C = [(12 * 8) / 151.163] * 100% = 63.50%

%H = [(1 * 9) / 151.163] * 100% = 5.954%

%N = [(14 * 1) / 151.163] * 100% = 9.262%

<span>%O = [(16 * 2) / 151.163] * 100% = 21.17% </span>

UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:

1) A

2) D

3) A

4) B

5) D

6) C

7) B

8) A

9) C

10) C

Explanation:

Sublimation refers to the direct change of a substance from solid to gas without passing through a liquid stage. Hence if camphor changes directly from solid to gas, camphor is a sublime substance.

Gases have a higher rate of diffusion than liquids because liquids have greater intermolecular forces while the intermolecular forces in a gas is negligible.

When a substance is heated, a point comes in which heat is supplied but the temperature of the body does not change. This is the point of phase change and the heat supplied at this point may be referred to as latent heat of fusion or vaporization depending on the particular process going on.

While it is true that evaporation occurs at all temperatures and the kinetic energy of molecules is directly proportional to the temperature of a body but the later statement does not explain the former. Rather evaporation occurs because some particles at the surface of the liquid are more energetic and escape due to unbalanced attractive forces acting on them.

Due to decrease in temperature, it takes a longer time to cook food at high altitudes but a lesser time to boil water at higher altitudes.

Gases are easily compressible by applying pressure because gases occupy negligible volume compared to the volume of the container. There is a significant inter particle space between gas particles.

The solid state contains the strongest degree of intermolecular forces. However, the reason offered, though correct, is not the correct explanation of the assertion stated.

This is the Tyndall effect. Colloidal particles scatter light rays and the path of the light becomes visible in the colloidal solution.

Salt solution is homogeneous. A homogeneous solution contains only one phase throughout. If it has a different composition, the solution is heterogeneous. Hence the explanation is false.

A true solution will not exhibit Tyndall effect because the particles are less than colloidal size. A true solution cannot be a heterogenous mixture hence the reason is false.

The reaction of benzene with (CH3)3CCH2Cl in the presence of anhydrous aluminum chloride produces principally which of these?
Sedaia [141]

Answer:

See explanation and image attached

Explanation:

When the carbocation is formed by the action of AlCl3 on the (CH3)3CCH2Cl, a primary carbocation is formed. The formation of the carbonation is followed by a 1,2-alkyl shift to give a tertiary carbocation which subsequently adds to the benzene ring as shown in the image attached to this answer.
