Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
A seed growing into a plant has to be defined as a chemical change or a physical change.
Concept Introduction:
Chemical change:
When a substance gets converted to different kinds of matter, it is said to be chemical change.
Physical change:
When a substance undergoes change, without change in its composition, it is said to be physical change.

- 10.00 g of Compound X with molecular formula C₂Hg are burned in a constant-pressure calorimeter containing 40.00 kg of water at 25 °C. The temperature of the water is observed to rise by 2.604 °C. (You may assume all the heat released by the reaction is absorbed by the water, and none by the calorimeter itself.) Calculate the standard heat of formation of Compound X at 25 °C. Be sure your answer has a unit symbol, if necessary, and round it to the correct number of significant digits.arrow_forwardneed help not sure what am doing wrong step by step please answer is 971A During the lecture, we calculated the Debye length at physiological salt concentrations and temperature, i.e. at an ionic strength of 150 mM (i.e. 0.150 mol/l) and a temperature of T=310 K. We predicted that electrostatic interactions are effectively screened beyond distances of 8.1 Å in solutions with a physiological salt concentration. What is the Debye length in a sample of distilled water with an ionic strength of 10.0 µM (i.e. 1.00 * 10-5 mol/l)? Assume room temperature, i.e. T= 298 K, and provide your answer as a numerical expression with 3 significant figures in Å (1 Å = 10-10 m).arrow_forwardInfluence of salt concentrations on electrostatic interactions 2 Answer is 2.17A why not sure step by step please What is the Debye length in a concentrated salt solution with an ionic strength of 2.00 mol/l?
