Explain how size and shape of particles has an affect on the forces of attraction between them

Chemistry
1 answer:
Neko [114]2 years ago
7 0

Based on size and shape, the force of attraction between solid particles is greatest whereas the force of attraction between gas particles is least.

<h3>Effect of size and shape on  forces of attraction between particles</h3>

Particles of matter have force acting between them known as force of attraction.

The strength of this force of attraction varies from one kind of matter to another.

Matter exists in three states;

  • solid
  • liquid, and
  • gas

Solids particles have definite shape, fixed volumes, propensity to keep up with their shape and are unbending.

Strength of force acting between particles of solid is so strong which helps solid to have fixed volume and rigid shape.

liquid particles have no fixed volume but have a fixed volume as they take the shape of the vessel in which they are filled.

Gas particles move randomly at very high speed due to the maximum free space between the particles and minimum force of attraction between them.

Thus, based on size and shape, the force of attraction between solid particles is greatest whereas the force of attraction between gas particles is least.

Which two factors affect the strength of<br> a metallic bond?
jeyben [28]

Answer: Number of protons and number of valance electrons.

Explanation:

There are three factors which determine metallic bond strength. greater the no of protons, greater will be attraction between nucleus and valance shell electrons and stronger will be metallic bond. greater no of valance electron, greater will be attractions between nucleus and electrons and stronger will be bond.

A material has an ASTM grain size number of 7. Determine the magnification, if the number of grains per square inch observed is:
Luden [163]

Answer:

A) M = 100X

B) M = 36X

C) M = 178.88X

Explanation:

Given data:

ASTM grain size number 7

a) total grain per inch^2 - 64 grain/inch^2

we know that number of grain per square inch is given as

Nm = 2^{n-1} (\frac{100}{M})^2

where M is magnification, n is grain size

therefore we have

64 = 2^{7-1}(\frac{100}{M})^2

solving for M we get

M = 100 X

B)  total grain per inch^2 = 500 grain/inch^2

we know that number of grain per square inch is given as

Nm = 2^{n-1} (\frac{100}{M})^2

where M is magnification, n is grain size

therefore we have500 = 2^{7-1}(\frac{100}{M})^2

solving for M we get

M = 36 X

C) Total grain per inch^2 = 20 grain/inch^2

we know that number of grain per square inch is given as

Nm = 2^{n-1} (\frac{100}{M})^2

where M is magnification, n is grain size

therefore we have20 = 2^{7-1}(\frac{100}{M})^2

solving for M we get

M = 178.88 X

Can a chemical reaction happen with only one substance? For example, if you select water as the first substance but you don't ad
KATRIN_1 [288]

Explanation:

Yes, a chemical reaction can happen with only one substance.

A typical example of such reaction is the radioactive decay.

Radioactive decay is the loss of elementary particles from an unstable nucleus, ultimately changing the unstable element into another more stable element. .

When radioactive elements are let alone, they decompose to form  stable harmless elements.

An example of radioactive decay is attached in the image below;

A diatomic gas has the molar mass of 38.00g/mol. What is the possible formula?
Korolek [52]

The answer would be F₂. This is because you have 2 fluorine atoms. so you divide the 38g/mol by 2 atoms which gets you 19 g/mol per atom. Now all you have to do is find the atom with the molar mass of 19g/mol which is fluorine.

 I hope this helps :)
