The element with the lowest melting point is Ga.
Hence, Option (C) is correct answer.

<h3>What is Melting point ?</h3>

Melting point is usually defined as the temperature at which solid changes to liquid.

<h3>What is the order of melting point of B, Al, Ga, Tl ?</h3>

The melting point order of B, Al, Ga, Tl is B > Al> Tl > Ga due to structural changes, melting point increases from Ga to Tl. Hence Ga has the lowest melting point among all these.

Thus from the above conclusion we can say that The element with the lowest melting point is Ga.
Hence, Option (C) is correct answer.

If you are asked to compare matter in solid, liquid, and gaseous states, which statement best defines a gas?

Elza [17]

I am pretty sure that <span>If I were asked to compare matter in solid, liquid, and gaseous states, the statement which would best defined a gas is </span>highest energy, highest molecular motion, and least dense packaging of molecules. I choose this one because it's not sensible to <span>heat CO2 (in case of safety) and in the last option the amount of energy is not satisfying.

Hope it helps!</span>

What happens to the speed of motion of the particles of a gas when a certain volume of the gas is heated at constant pressure? E

Vitek1552 [10]

As the gas is heated, the particles will begin to move faster. Likewise if you start to cool a gas, the particles will move slower. Because the gas remains at a constant pressure and volume, the particles cannot spread out so they simply move around the container even faster.

Hope this helps :)

Write isotopic symbols in the form AZX for each isotope. a. the copper isotope with 34 neutrons b. the copper isotope with 36 ne

krek1111 [17]

Explanation:

The form AZX denoted that;

Z = The atomic number or proton number (symbol Z) of a chemical element is the number of protons found in the nucleus of every atom of that element.

A = Mass Number ( Sum of Neutrons and Protons)

X represents the element.

A. the copper isotope with 34 neutrons

X = Cu

Atomic Number of Copper, Z = 29

Mass Number, A = 29 + 34 = 63

63.29.Cu

B. the copper isotope with 36 neutrons

X = Cu

Atomic Number of Copper, Z = 29

Mass Number, A = 29 + 36 = 65

65.29.Cu

C. the potassium isotope with 21 neutrons

X = K

Atomic Number of Potassium, Z = 19

Mass Number, A = 19 + 21 = 40

40.19.K

D. the argon isotope with 22 neutrons

X = Ar

Atomic Number of Argon, Z = 18

Mass Number, A = 18 + 22 = 40

40.18.Ar

When NH4NO3 spontaneously dissolves in water the temperature of the solution decreases. What factors make this a naturally occu

erma4kov [3.2K]

Explanation:

Once solid ammonium nitrate interacts with water, the molecules of polar water intermingle with these ions and attract individual ions from the structure of the lattice, that actually will break down. E.g;-NH4NO3(s) — NH4+(aq)+ NO3-(aq) To split the ionic bonds that bind the lattice intact takes energy that is drained from the surroundings to cool the solution.

Some heat energy is produced once the ammonium and nitrate ions react with the water molecules (exothermic reaction), however this heat is far below that is needed by the H2O molecules to split the powerful ionic bonds in the solid ammonium nitrate.

Hence, we can say that the dissolution of ammonium nitrate in water is highly endothermic reaction.
