B) N2(g) + 2O2(g) → 2NO2(g)

C) I2(s) → I2(g)

D) 3O2(g) → 2O3(g)

200

The arrangement of particles is most ordered in a

sample of

A) NaCl(aq) 

B) NaCl(l)

C) NaCl(g) 

D) NaCl(s)

200

Which sample of matter at STP has the greatest average distance between its molecules: N2(g), NH3(aq), C6H14(l), or C6H12O6(s)?

N2(g)

200

Bronze contains 90% to 95% copper and 5% to 10% tin. Because these percentages can vary, how is bronze classified?

Mixture

200

Distillation is a process used to separate a mixture of two or more miscible liquids based on differences in which physical property?

Boiling point

200

Explain why the transformation of O2(g) into O3(g) (ozone) is classified as a chemical change rather than a physical change.

The molecular composition and chemical bonds change, forming an entirely new substance with different properties

300

At STP, a 50.-gram sample of H2O(l) and a 100.-gram

sample of H2O(l) have

A) the same chemical properties

B) the same volume

C) different temperatures

D) different empirical formulas

A) the same chemical properties

300

Order the three phases of elemental bromine from left to right in order of increasing distance between bromine molecule.

solid → liquid → gas

300

Among the formulas: O3(g), LiCl(aq), LiCl(s), or C6H12O6(s), which one represents a homogeneous mixture?

LiCl(aq)

300

In a lab experiment, a student filters a mixture of rock salt containing solid NaCl(aq) dissolved in water and insoluble rock particles. In terms of particle size, explain why the rock particles stay on the filter paper while the NaCl(aq) passes through.

The insoluble rock particles are larger than the pores/openings of the filter paper, while the dissolved ions and water molecules are small enough to pass through

300

Which statement describes a chemical property of

aluminum?

A) Aluminum is malleable.

B) Aluminum reacts with sulfuric acid.

C) Aluminum conducts an electric current.

D) Aluminum has a density of 2.698 g/cm3

at STP.

B) Aluminum reacts with sulfuric acid.

400

Why does a 5.0 mL sample of NH3(g) completely fill and take the shape of a closed 100.0 mL container, whereas a 5.0 mL sample of NH3(l) does not?

Gas particles have no definite volume or shape, spread out freely at high speeds, and are compressible to fill any closed container

State the Law of Conservation of Mass during a chemical reaction, and describe what happens to the total mass of reactants compared to the total mass of products in a closed system.

It stays the same. 

500

Two particle diagrams show identical diatomic molecules. Diagram A shows the molecules arranged in a crystalline lattice, while Diagram B shows the same molecules distributed randomly throughout space. If both represent the same element, name the two phases shown and draw their particle diagrams

A: Solid

B: Gas


500

What is the physical phase of bromine at 340 K?

Gas

500

Explain why an aqueous solution of salt water is considered a mixture, while carbon dioxide gas is considered a compound, in terms of composition and separation.

Salt water has a variable composition and can be separated physically (by evaporation), while carbon dioxide has a fixed proportion of elements chemically combined and can only be decomposed by chemical means.

500

Iron

1. Magnetic extraction of iron

2. Filtration of sand

3. Distillation of propanol

4. Evaporation of salt from water

Part B: If 26 grams of acetylene react completely with 80 grams of oxygen to form 72 grams of carbon dioxide, what mass of water vapor must be produced?   

Part A: Chemical change

Part B: 34 g of water
