  2. Chemical and Physical Properties - Chemistry - Socratic

    socratic.org/chemistry/chemical-reactions/chemical-and-physical-properties

    Answer: Chemical properties are only evident during chemical reactions. Explanation: You can measure and observe physical properties without needing to make any chemical changes to a substance (i.e. no bonds needs to be made or broken, and the chemical composition of the substance is not changed). So things like colour, melting point, boiling ...

  3. Properties of ionic, covalent, and metallic compounds

    socratic.org/chemistry/bonding-basics/properties-of-ionic-covalent-and...

    Here is a short list of main properties: They form crystals. Ionic compounds form crystal lattices rather than amorphous solids. They have higher enthalpies of fusion and vaporization than molecular compounds. They are hard. They are brittle. They have high melting points and also high boiling points. They conduct electricity but only when they ...

  4. Physical and Chemical Changes - Chemistry - Socratic

    socratic.org/chemistry/a-first-introduction-to-matter/physical-and-chemical...

    A chemical change is any change that results in the formation of new chemical substances with new properties. For example, hydrogen reacts with oxygen to form water. This is a chemical change. 2H₂ + O₂ → H₂O. Hydrogen and oxygen are both colourless gases, but water is a liquid at ordinary temperatures. EXAMPLES.

  5. How does adding salt change the physical properties of water?

    socratic.org/.../how-does-adding-salt-change-the-physical-properties-of-water

    1 Answer. anor277. Jun 19, 2018. Would not the physical properties of the solution be changed with respect to the pure solvent... Explanation: N aCl(s) H2O −→ N a+ +Cl−. The osmotic potential of the solution would be changed. The vapour pressure of the solution would be changed, along with the boiling point. The freezing point of the ...

  6. How can mixtures be separated using physical properties?

    socratic.org/questions/how-can-mixtures-be-separated-using-physical-properties

    Here are some physical properties that you can use to separate mixtures. > Solubility Tea leaves do not dissolve in water, so you can use a strainer to filter them from your tea. (from www.bellocq.com) Density Particles of sand and mud are denser than water. They will settle out over time. The process is sedimentation. Centrifugation speeds up the process of settling out . It works for both ...

  7. What are physical properties that can separate a mixture?

    socratic.org/questions/what-are-physical-properties-that-can-separate-a-mixture

    For example, to separate a mixture of sand and table salt, start by dissolving the solid mixture in water to form a NaCl solution that contains sand. The solution part shall pass through a piece of filter paper whereas sand will be trapped on the funnel. Evaporating the salt solution removes H2O such that NaCl is restored to its crystal form.

  8. What are some examples of properties of water? - Socratic

    socratic.org/questions/what-are-some-examples-of-properties-of-water

    The main properties of water are its polarity, cohesion, adhesion, surface tension, high specific heat, and evaporative cooling. Polarity A water molecule is slightly charged on both ends. This is because oxygen is more electronegative than hydrogen. Check out video of a stream of water being bent - a plastic ruler is used in the demo. The stream of water bends due to the polarity of water ...

    Water keeps chemistry working, nutrients moving, temperatures stable, bodies of water from not completely freezing through. This 4 min youtube video by RicochetScience does an amazing job explaining and visualizing the unique properties of water and how it helps life exist: So instead of paraphrasing the video, let's provoke some creative ...

  10. How Intermolecular Forces Affect Phases of Matter - Socratic

    socratic.org/chemistry/phases-of-matter/how-intermolecular-forces-affect...

    Intermolecular forces (IMFs) are attractive interactions between molecules. They lead to differences and sometimes trends in various physical properties. These are typically listed in order of strength: Dispersion <Dipole-Dipole <Hydrogen-bonding <Ion-Dipole <Ion Pairing. Hydrogen- bonding (which is not bonding) is shown below in an example ...

  11. Properties of Solids, Liquids, and Gases - Chemistry - Socratic

    socratic.org/chemistry/phases-of-matter/properties-of-solids-liquids-and-gases

    Liquids have fixed volume but no fixed shape.They have fixed volume but they do not have fixed or definite shape. If you take 100 ml of water, pour water in a cup, it will take the shape of the cup. Now pour the liquid from cup to a bottle, the liquid has changed its shape and now it has taken the shape of bottle.
