Answer: orderly arrangement of particles

Explanation:

In a crystaline solid, the particles that compose the solid are arranged or packed in an orderly manner to form a three dimensional crystal lattice with a defined structure. Sodium chloride is a crystaline solid.

In an amorphous solid, the particles that compose the solid aren't arranged in an orderly manner hence the solid tends to be brittle, e.g glass

The negatively charged particles of an atom are the

posledela

Answer:

Electron: A negatively charged particle found circling or orbiting an atomic nucleus. An electron, like a proton is a charged particle, although opposite in sign, but unlike a proton, an electron has negligible atomic mass. Electrons contribute no atomic mass units to the total atomic weight of an atom.

Identify the following changes as physical or chemical. A loaf of risen but unbaked bread. Photo by Elinor D Bread dough rising:

sergey [27]

The answers include:

A loaf of risen but unbaked bread - chemical change.
Photo by Elinor D - chemical change.
Bread dough rising - chemical change.

<h3>What is a Chemical change?</h3>

This involves the formation of a new products from substances. In this scenario, a rising bread contains alcohol which evaporates.

Photographs also fall under this category and is therefore an irreversible chemical change.

the reaction of aluminum with chlorine gas is shown 2Al + 3Cl2 -> 2AlCl3 based on this equation how many molecules of chlorin

Vanyuwa [196]

45 molecules of chlorine gas (Cl₂) are needed to react with 30 atoms of aluminum (Al)

The balanced equation for the reaction is given below:

2Al + 3Cl₂ —> 2AlCl₃

From the balanced equation above,

2 atoms of Al required 3 molecules of Cl₂.

With the above information, we can determine the number of molecules of Cl₂ needed to react with 30 atoms of Al. This can be obtained as follow:

From the balanced equation above,

2 atoms of Al required 3 molecules of Cl₂.

Therefore,

30 atoms of Al will require = $\frac{30 * 3}{2}\\$ = 45 molecules of Cl₂.

Thus, 45 molecules of chlorine gas (Cl₂) are needed to react with 30 atoms of aluminum (Al)

Consider the following intermediate chemical equations.

QveST [7]

Answer: 250 kJ

Explanation: According to Hess’s law of constant heat summation, the heat absorbed or evolved in a given chemical equation is the same whether the process occurs in one step or several steps.

According to Hess’s law, the chemical equation can be treated as algebraic expressions and can be added or subtracted to yield the required equation. That means the enthalpy change of the overall reaction is the sum of the enthalpy changes of the intermediate reactions.

$P_4(s)+6Cl_2\rightarrow 4PCl_3$ $\Delta H_1=-2439kJ$ (1)
