Geologists use the Goldschmidt classification as a means of categorizing various minerals. One category is the chalcophiles, associated with sulfide, selenide, and telluride minerals and another is the lithophiles, associated with oxide and silicate minerals. Based on hard-soft acid-base concepts, what classification required for each of eleme?

c. 75.7

i think that is the right

i think   the answer is c hope i'm right

the dissolution of polymer can be thermodynamically described in 2 steps.

answer : one can design an experiment using a liquid and an additive that can be added to the liquid and observe the chemical changes in the reaction species.

one would need a beaker which is filled with a known amount of the liquid in which thermometer is placed to measure the temperature changes; after addition of the additive to the liquid solution one can note down the temperature change and find whether the reaction is endothermic or exothermic in nature. by subtracting the initial temperature value with the final temperature one can find the temperature changes.

various combinations of liquid and additive can be used. liquid in this case can be a known quantity of water and additives can be epsom salt or without epsom salt the experiment can be conducted to notice the changes. water and ice, hydrogen peroxide and dry yeast, vinegar and baking soda,etc.
