Describe the particles of a solid, liquid, and gas. For each, be sure to tell how far apart they are and how fast or slowly they

move.
Chemistry

Art [367]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Solid

  • A solid is a state of matter where the particles are tightly packed together, they are very close together
  • They vibrate, they move very slowly

Liquid

  • A liquid has free-flowing particles, but they may not leave the container
  • They move at medium speed

Gas

  • <u><em>A gas moves very freely, they leave the container, and they may not be captured in its entirety</em></u>
  • <u><em>It moves very fast because it is heated</em></u>

<u><em></em></u>

Hope this helps :)

Is ammonium ion a bronsted base
Leokris [45]

Unlikely. It's unlikely for ammonium ion {\text{NH}_4}^{+} to accept a proton \text{H}^{+} and act as a Bronsted-Lowry Acid.

<h3>Explanation</h3>

What's the definition of Bronsted-Lowry acids and bases?

  • Bronsted-Lowry Acid: a species that can donate one or more protons \text{H}^{+} in a reaction.
  • Bronsted-Lowry Base: a species that can accept one or more protons \text{H}^{+}

Ammonium ions {\text{NH}_4}^{+} are positive. Protons \text{H}^{+} are also positive.

Positive charges repel each other, which means that it will be difficult for {\text{NH}_4}^{+} to accept any additional protons. As a result, it's unlikely that {\text{NH}_4}^{+} will accept <em>any</em> proton and act like a Bronsted-Lowry Base.

Calculate the density of a block of metal with a volume of 12.5 cm cubed and mass of 126.0 g
SVEN [57.7K]
Density is defined as mass/volume (or m/v).

So,

(126.0 g)/(12.5 cm^3)= 10.08 g/cm^3

If your teacher requires correct significant figures, the answer is 10.1 g/cm^3.
If not, the first answer is fine.

What is penetration? How is it related to shielding? Use the penetration effect to explain the difference in relative orbital en
Whitepunk [10]

Answer: penetration is the ability of an electron in a given orbital to approach the nucleus closely. Shielding refers to the fact that core electrons reduce the degree of nuclear attraction felt by the orbital electrons. Shielding is the opposite of penetration. The most penetrating orbital is the least screening orbital. The order of increasing shielding effect/decreasing penetration is s<p<d<f.

Explanation:

The order of penetrating power is 1s>2s>2p>3s>3p>4s>3d>4p>5s>4d>5p>6s>4f....

Since the 3p orbital is more penetrating than the 3d orbital, it will lie nearer to the nucleus and thus possess lower energy.
