Chemistry chemical reaction or physical process?
Hello,
Grade 9, can someone help me with this assignment? I'm not sure exactly what goes in there.
Thanks in advance!
I understand the oxidation of alcohol to aldehydes, but not of aldehydes to carboxylic acids Can ketones do that too? In the example C2H4O + what for example—> C2H4O2+ what How does this reaction work? What do you need to know? What tasks would be involved?
On October 30, 1961, the USSR detonated the "Tsar Bomb" over the twin islands of Novaya Zemlya in the Arctic Ocean – the largest hydrogen bomb explosion of all time. It was 4000 times as powerful as the one on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, so 4000 of the Hiroshima atomic bombs fell. Why did this test…
Normally, certain frequencies cause the cilia in the auditory canal to vibrate; this vibration is converted into neural signals and we perceive sounds. Normally we can hear frequencies between 16 Hz – 20000 Hz, but we can't normally hear ultrasound, for example. But now I ask myself why? Is it because the cilia vibrate back…
Hello everyone, I've decided to choose the formation and spread of microplastics as the topic of my 11th-grade essay. I wanted to analyze various water samples and document them over a period of several weeks. It's important, however, that I can roughly determine the amount of microplastics. Now the question is how to accomplish this….
Hey:) I am writing a physics KA tomorrow and would be happy if someone with knowledge could answer these questions: 1. Why does the current in coils flow from + to – and not the other way around? 2. Does Lenz's law mean that the current is simply reversed when induction occurs? And if not,…
Just look at whether new substances are created with new properties. You notice that, for example, a liquid and a solid substance produce a gas. Or that something liquid does not evaporate during heating, but becomes solid. Or that after heating/mixing tastes slightly different/has a different color.
My tip: good explanations about this and also many other basics are available in my Chemistry favourite book:Jule and the horrors of chemistry: Heering, Andrea, Palitzsch-Schulz, Aruna: Amazon.de: Books
great success!
Vaporizing water I would rather be considered physical, but all that has to do with changes of substance compositions is chemical. Evaporating water still has the same composition, the only difference in the evaporation in the kinetic and potent energy of the water molecules, which ensures that the vapor pressure equals the atmospheric pressure.
I have never understood the meaning of such tasks.
Remember:
Chemical reactions cannot be reversed. In a physical process, only the aggregate state, size or shape is changed.
I hope I could help you with <3
Chemical reactions can be reversed – but do not stop simply by changing the temperature.
