Yes. All the natural sources of food can be contaminated withresidues of pesticides etc., for example, you can find traces ofDDT and PCBs in the body fat of penguins. Also, most foods containwater, which is a chemical, and foods themselves are organicchemicals, which means that they contain carbon,...
Yes, if you add plenty of water. When boiling ham or bacon we oftenput it in water, bring it to the boil, and then discard the first water and replace it for the restof the cooking. This gets rid of some of the salt. However, if youhave a liquid (e.g. a soup or gravy), boiling it will onlyevaporate...
Microbial contamination (such as mold and yeast) can enter after the bottle is opened. Magnesium citrate formulas give microbes an ideal environment to grow.
Oxidation. At high temperature magnesium ignites - and that iscalled combustion.
Oxygen, sulfur and the elements of group 17.
You can boil water and other liquids out of canned meat but thesalt will stay behind. In fact any solids dissolved in a liquidwill be left behind since when the water boils away, the dissolvedsubstance will precipitate out of solution and will be left behind.Rinsing the canned meat and pouring out...
The average annual salary for a mineralogist working in the US isabout $110,000. Salaries can range depending on experience, skill,and hiring company, from $48,000--which is a typical entry levelsalary--to $135,000.
Not all elements are radioactive. Only elements having atomicnumber more than 83 are considered having radioactive nature(radio-isotopes). The elements with atomic number less than 83 areconsidered stable. OLDER ANSWER:Theoretically they all are, it is just a matter ofdecay-speed(radioactivity)....
It is suggested you do this to avoid microbial contamination as itattracts moisture from the air. Magnesium Citrate does notdecompose quickly. Under the proper conditions it should still befine to continue using the oral solution after 24 hours. Considerrefrigeration, tightly sealing the bottle, or...
The neutron has about the same mass as the proton, each hasa mass a tiny amount greater than 1 AMU (atomic mass unit). Theneutron is the smallest bit more massive. The electron has a mass of just a bit over 5/10,000ths of an AMU.Extremely less massive in comparison, isn't it!
No. There is a single covalent bond between the two atoms of achlorine molecule.
It is neutral.
"Resin Based Paint" is the liquid in paint that suspends thepigment (leaving the resin behind, obviously) and transports themfrom the paint brush to the wall. The paint then evaporates andleaves the paint film behind.
30 ml 50% dextrose + 70 ml water
Yes, it can. The vapors of some thinners are toxic, and in a highconcentration can make you sick or unconscious- or dead. This iswhy "huffing" paint is dangerous..
Too vague a question. If you mean, does sealing the cup change themass, then no it does not change the mass of the water, though thesealing material would add its own mass to the total.
The ionic charges of group 1 and 2 metals are +1 and +2respectively. Group 15 & 16 the simple mono-atomic ions are -3and -2. Group 17 ions are -1. This can be explained by thefollowing elemnts in groups 1 and 2 lose 1 or 2electrons respectively to achieve a noble gas configuration whereasgroups 15...
1) It is based on atomic number rather than atomic mass. 2) It is most accurate and widely used table.
A glass beaker is completely filled with 456 c.c. of a liquid whenboth the glass beaker and the liquid are at a temperature of33.3oC. If the glass beaker and the liquid are cooled to 5oC. what additional volume of liquid (in c.c.) can be put into thebeaker? Volumetric coefficient of expansion of...
I believe they are things we need in our diet that are eithersimple compounds like water (H2O) or pure elements like iron.
Metals and Wood
Generally the electrons are transfered from the metal elements tothe nonmetalic elements so that both form stable electronconfigurations. For example, in sodium chloride one sodium atomloses an electron so that it has the stable electron configurationof Neon and chlorine gains one electron so that...
The electrical resistance between subatomic particles is farreaching from the atomic nucleus and electron cloud. Electrons arealso moving very fast. The probability cloud that determines wherethe electrons could be, the orbitals and the nucleus itself, arestill not solid objects. Keep in mind under...
The electromagnetic and strong nuclear forces are very powerful andrepulsive at close ranges. Put two atomic nuclei near each otherand they will push away from each other. Similarly if you put twonegatively charged particles near each other they will also repelat very close distances.
Nitrogen would extinguish the flame. Unlike most burning fuels,magnesium will continue to burn in carbon dioxide because its flameis hot enough to decompose carbon dioxide to carbon and oxygen.

See the recordings of temperature over the last 10 or 20 years.This could show an increasing temperature. Also, you could see howmuch of the ice has melted or the rise of sea level (not to beconfused with tides). If the Earth is getting warmer, then moreicecaps would melt, resulting in higher oceans...
Many people thought of the idea, but we have given credit toDmitri Mendeleev in 1869. I think its because he took the ideafurther and inscribed detail into his table, even predicting futureelements. However, Lothar Meyer has also produced a similar versionat essentially the same time as Dmitri...

If it is heated to 160 degrees Celsius it yo momma melt anddecompose into acetone vapor and calcium carbonate.ngn
In an ionic compound the charges must balance out to zero. Since the nitride ion has a 3- charge and sodium forms a 1+ ion so in sodium nitride there are three sodium ions (Na + ) fore every one nitride ion (N 3- ).
It evens out the temperatures. By absorbing heat energy in the summer, and releases it during winter. The same also happens during summerdays and summernights, keeping the days cooler and the nights warmer.
Firstly, if it's a molecule it will only have partially chargedends. If there are partial charges we say the molecule is polar,and if there are not, it is non-polar.
No, it is a non metallic complex ion but it forms salts (Ioniccompounds) just like metallic ions.
Yes, it gradually corrodes, though in the right environment it canlast a long time.
Utah: they get salt from salt mines where the salt lake is . Salt can come from a number of sources. It can be processed fromthe sea water with machines, be collected when the water in seawater has evaporated, or be mined out of salt mines.
Methanol does not react with water. Mixing them is exothermic.
Calcium oxide - CaO Ca: 20 electrons Oxygen: 8 electrons Total: 28
luminous flames have a bluish to violet color and it means that thesystem is given enough oxygen for the reaction. Luminous flameswill not produce soot. non luminous flames are orange, red, and yellow much like youreveryday campfire but this system is not given enough oxygentherefore produce soot.
An octet electron arrangement is where an atom has 8 valence electrons. It's very stable and unreactive. Some metal atoms tend to donate its electrons and the electrons accepted by non-metal atom. This is called ionic bonding. Some non-metal electron share electron among themselves to achieve...

Yes it is.
Radium is a decay product of uranium and is constantly beingproduced. U-238 has a half-life of about 4.5 billion years, sothere's still quite a bit left of the original amount on Earth.
Many substances will cause water to lather when shaken. However, Iwonder if you mean how can soap be made? The ingredients are fatsand alkali, and there is no organic alternative to the alkali.

The molecules of water are held together by hydrogen bonding between molecules. These are electrostatic bonds (attraction forces between opposite charges) that hydrogen makes with the oxygen of neighbouring molecules. Hydrogen, when bonded to oxygen to form water molecules, is slightly positive...
Oil and water do not mix. Since ice is made of frozen water, it floats on oil because it will not mix with it and also because ice is relatively light
It is because of the difference between the way molecules arehydrogen bonded to each other in the mixture compared to the pureliquids.

Table salt, or sodium chloride, is a chemical compound, and is notan amalgam.
It means you should ask google
Yes. But this occurs because salt is soluble in water, in which thecoloring is dissolved. The color is retained by the salt crystalswhen they dry.
The sodium chloride crystal arrangement is a cubic crystal lattice (a regular, repeating pattern) or a "salt crystal". Every chlorine ion (negatively charged, as they gain an electron in this case) is surrounded by 6 sodium ions (positively charged, as they lose an electron in this case), as...
