According to the law of conservation of mass, if an atom of element A has a mass of 2 units, while an atom of element B
has a mass of 5 units, what would be the mass of the
compound A3 B2 ?

What overall charge must all compounds have

The small bags of silica gel you often see in a new shoe box are placed there to control humidity. despite its name, silica gel is a solid. it is a chemically inert, highly porous, amorphous form of sio2. because water vapor readily adsorbs onto the surface of silica gel, it acts as a desiccant. despite not knowing mechanistic details of the adsorption of water onto silica gel, from the information provided you should be able to make an educated guess about the thermodynamic characteristics of the process. predict the signs for δg, δh, and δs for the adsorption of water.

How might this scientific phenomena be explained? a paper clip floats on water.
