Sodium and potassium are both shiny metals in pure form, but corrode rapidly in the presence of oxygen and humidity to form compounds. Does this fact describe a physical or chemical property of these two metals?
Suppose you have a car which gets 51 miles per gallon of gasoline in the city. Suppose you take the car to Canada. Then you fill it up at a gas station in Canada. How many kilometers should the car be able to drive on city streets on 1.7 liters of gasoline? (Note: 1 mile = 1.609 km, 1 gallon = 3.78541 L)
Which statement about temperature is TRUE?
A small block of aluminum sitting in a beaker of boiling water for several hours will have a different
temperature than the boiling water.
Temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of particles in a substance.
Temperature moves from colder objects to hotter objects.
A cup of boiling water and a bucket of boiling water will have different temperatures because they
have different volumes.

A student weighs an empty special round bottom flask and stopper. He finds the mass to be 56.972 g. He then adds about 5 mL of an unknown liquid and heats the flask in a boiling water bath at 100°C. He allows all the liquid to vaporized and then removes the flask from the bath, stoppers it, and lets it cool. Upon cooling, he briefly removes the stopper, then replaces it and weighs the flask and condensed vapor, obtaining a mass of 57.917 g. The volume of the flask is known to be 240.2 mL. The barometric pressure in the laboratory that day is 743 mm Hg. What was the pressure of the vapor in the flask in atm?
