Well the covalent bond between chlorine and carbon will of greater strength than between iodine and carbon, since chlorine has a greater electronegativity and so is attracted to the bonded pair of electrons more strongly than iodine and so iodine will be able to be donated to the AgNO3 and react to form the AgI precipitate much more readily.

What are the precautions heating liquids or solutions?

Wear safety goggles, the vapours may go in your eyes and he harmful. Do not touch the hot liquid, for obvious reasons.


Two reasons why heating to a high temperature is not a suitable method for finding the percentage of water in all hydrates?

Some compounds can lost not only the water; they can decompose at high temperature.


Suggest two reasons why a luminous flame is not used as a source of heat in a laboratory experiment?

It produces more heat. It does not produce soot that would stain the laboratory apparatus.


What are five signs of a chemical reaction?

-Colour -Temperature -Light -Gas produced (Bubbles) -Precipitate -Hard to reverse Examples: Cooking an egg: This is a chemical reaction for several reasons. As you cook an egg the temperature increases, also the colour of the whites change, and it is very hard to reverse. Melting a block of ice: This would not be a chemical change because it is rather known as a Physical Change. A physical change includes signs as decrease in size or change in state. In this situation the block of ice is going from a solid, to a liquid.


How does pH levels affect coral reefs?

pH is important for many reasons, but for coral reefs proper pH is especially important because of how corals grow. Corals grow by depositing calcium carbonate as part of their skeletons, and calcium carbonate does not like to for (precipitate) at lower pH. A pH of above 8 makes it much easier for corals to lay down there calcium carobonate skeletons, and thus makes it possible for them to grow. That is how pH affects coral reefs.

Why is a Bunsen burner not used for heating when the air hole is closed?

When the air hole is closed, the flame is a luminous flame. This flame is not ideal for heating for the following reasons: it is not as hot as the non-luminous flame it is very unstable it produces a lot of soot thus, only non-luminous flames (the blue one) is ideal for heating. :)

What are the names of books where Nancy Drew is chloroformed?

Nancy is not chloroformed too much in the original series, she is usually knocked out by a blow to her head or Nancy faints for a variety of reasons. Nancy does get chloroformed, however, in Nancys Mysterious Letter when she is grabbed from behind by a strange girl who hold a chloroform soaked pad over Nancys nose and mouth and Nancy quickly blacks out. In the Nancy Drew files chloroform becomes the favourite way for the bad guys or girls to knock Nancy out


Is heating and cooling are examples of a chemical change?

Heating can be due to a chemical change, for example burning a fuel is in effect a chemical reaction with oxygen. Also some chemical reactions are exothermic, ie they produce heat. Not so many produce cooling, but one is the combination of ice and salt.However heating and cooling happen for other reasons as well, so you can't say they are examples of chemical changes. It is correct to say that some chemical changes result in heating and cooling.
