Answer:

False

Explanation:

Hello,

At first, we must take into account that in crystallography, vacancies account for the absence of an atom or molecule from a point that it would normally occupy in a crystal. In such a way, it has been widely studied that even crystalline solids have imperfections specially referred to vacancies created due to an eventual mechanical deformation of the crystal, rapid cooling from high temperature, or the impact of radiation on the crystal. Thus, it is false that one could produce a perfect crystalline solid that does not contain any vacancies.

Best regards.

<span>All crystalline solids contain vacancies. In fact, vacancies is one of the properties of a crystalline solids, for their presences is what creates their random (entropic) design. Furthermore, it is near impossible to create any solid matter that does not contain vacancies/defects. Vacancies can be created by the absence of an atom during matter creation; thermal vibrations can create such a defect as well.</span>

Please help me with chem, it would be very appreciated!

Lelu [443]

To determine the shapes of molecules, we must become acquainted with the Lewis electron dot structure. Although the Lewis theory does not determine the shapes of molecules, it is the first step in predicting shapes of molecules. The Lewis structure helps us identify the bond pairs and the lone pairs.

FrozenT [24]

A colloid has the particles that have the ability to scatter light called the Tyndall effect named after the scientist named Tyndall. A suspension has large suspended particles that settle out at the bottom of the container. A solution has small particles that are evenly distributed throughout. Hence the answer is choice 2.

Answer:

1.099 gmL¯¹ ≈ 1.1 gmL¯¹

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following were obtained:

Mass of empty cylinder = 9.5 g

Mass Cylinder + NaOH = 31.92 g

Volume of solution = 20.4 mL

Concentration of solution =?

Next, we shall determine the mass of sodium hydroxide, NaOH. This can be obtained as as illustrated below:

Mass of empty cylinder = 9.5 g

Mass Cylinder + NaOH = 31.92 g

Mass of NaOH =?

Mass of NaOH = (Mass Cylinder + NaOH) – (Mass of empty cylinder)

Mass of NaOH = 31.92 – 9.5

Mass of NaOH = 22.42 g

Finally, we shall determine concentration of the solution as follow:

Mass of NaOH = 22.42 g

Volume of solution = 20.4 mL

Concentration of solution =?

Concentration = mass /volume

Concentration of solution = 22.42 / 20.4

Concentration of solution = 1.099 gmL¯¹ ≈ 1.1 gmL¯¹

Therefore, the concentration of the solution is 1.1 gmL¯¹

What cells do you think is in metaphase? why?

Tcecarenko [31]

Etaphase is a stage during the process of cell division (mitosis or meiosis). Usually, individual chromosomes cannot be observed in the cell nucleus. However, during metaphase of mitosis or meiosis the chromosomes condense and become distinguishable as they align in the center of the dividing cell.

Matter is made up of heat energy and ___________energy?

ella [17]

You’re correct, matter is made up of heat energy and chemical energy

all matter contains heat because it is the result of the movement of atoms, molecules, or ions in solids, liquids, and gases.

all matter also contains chemical energy. chemical energy is stored in the bonds of chemical compounds so atoms and molecules are held together by chemical energy

hope this helps :)
