Question
Chapter 3, Problem 95E
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
To determine the unit for heat of fusion, if heat is measured in calories
Concept introduction:
The scope of the measurement depends upon the context and event. Measurement is commonly used as an international system of unit as a comparison framework. Two variables such as mass (m) and volume (V) can be described as directly proportional one on other by the expression m α V. Besides, the term density is the mass of the given substance per unit volume. Moreover, slope is the ratio of the change in the value of ‘y’ with respect to change in the value of ‘x’.

- friend of yours reads that the process of water freezing is exothermic. This friend tells you that this can’t be true because exothermic implies “hot,” and ice is cold. Is the process of water freezing exothermic? If so, explain this process so your friend can understand it. If not, explain why not.arrow_forwardIdentify the following as either physical changes or chemical changes. (a) The desalination of sea water (separation of pure water from dissolved salts).

- A geochemist measures the concentration of salt dissolved in Lake Parsons and finds a concentration of 69.32 g.L The geochemist also measures the concentration of salt in several nearby non-isolated lakes, and finds an average concentration of 5.02 g⋅L¯¹. Assuming the salt concentration in Lake Parsons before it became isolated was equal to the average salt concentration in nearby non-isolated lakes, calculate the percentage of Lake Parsons which has evaporated since it became isolated. Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits.arrow_forwardMixture is a combination of two or more substances that are not chemically combined. The substances are formed together but no new substance is formed. A mixture can be of any form. It may be solid, liquid or in gaseous form. Mixtures can be classified according to their appearance.

EXPERIMENT: Forming Mixtures A. Materials: Three glasses, water, teaspoon, flour, food color/soy sauce, cooking oil, pebbles/small stones B. Procedure: 1. Half-fill the four glasses with water. 2. Put the food color/soy sauce in one glass. Stir. Label it as "Set A. 3. Put a teaspoon of flour in the second glass. Stir. Label it as "Set B". 4. Put a teaspoon of cooking oil in the third glass.

Which TWO of the following statements are consistent with the student's observations? Ethanol molecules and water molecules are both polar, so they mix well with each other. Ethanol molecules are nonpolar and water molecules are polar, so they mix well with each other. Oil molecules and water molecules are both polar, so they do not mix well with each other. D Oil molecules are nonpolar and water molecules are polar, so they do not mix well with each other.arrow_forward
