If the solid is a metal, yes. Most solids on the periodic table are metals
The answer to 4 is A.
The answer to 5 is C.
Answer is only B.
<span>it becomes more stable</span>
1) List the reactants: sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO₃) and citric acid (H₃C₆H₅O₇).
Reactants undergo change during a chemical reaction.
2) List the products: water (H₂O), carbon dioxide (CO₂) and sodium citrate (Na₃C₆H₅O₇).
Products are the substances formed from chemical reactions.
3) The balanced chemical equation:
3NaHCO₃ + H₃C₆H₅O₇ → 3H₂O + 3CO₂ + Na₃C₆H₅O₇.
<span>Since these molecules are all non-polar, the only intermolecular force of attraction will be London dispersion forces. Since these increase by the size of the molecule, the boiling points will decrease in the same order:
Parafin > Heptadecane > hexane > 2,2-dimethylbutane > propane
For these two, hexane > 2,2-dimethylbutane, dispersion forces are greater in a molecule which is longer and unbranched compared to one which is branched and more compact.</span>
