Answer:cohesion is the action or fact of forming a united whole.

Water is very cohesive in that it "sticks" to itself. Cohesion is what allows a water droplet to form, for example. When water molecules surround one another, they settle toward a low energy state. ... Adhesion and cohesion are water properties that affect living and non-living things on earth through water molecules.

Answer:

Cohesion is the effect of hydroden bonds holding the water molecules together.

the hydrogen bonds keep the wait molecules sticking together.

(water moves up planets because of cohesion.Long colums of water can be sucked up from roots to leave without the colums breaking) hope this help xD

A 2.0 M solution of LiF had 4.00 moles of LiF added to a solvent to make it.
kykrilka [37]

Answer:

2 L

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Molarity of LiF = 2 M

Mole of LiF = 4 moles

Volume =?

Molarity of a solution is simply defined as the mole per unit litre of the solution. Mathematically, it is expressed as:

Molarity = mole / Volume

With the above formula, we can obtain the volume of the solution as shown below:

Molarity of LiF = 2 M

Mole of LiF = 4 moles

Volume =?

Molarity = mole / Volume

2 = 4 / volume

Cross multiply

2 × volume = 4

Divide both side by 2

Volume = 4/2

Volume = 2 L

Therefore, the volume of the solution is 2 L.

Why does galium melt
levacccp [35]

Answer:

Like most other metals, Gallium is solid at room temperature (or liquid if it is too hot in your room). But, if it is held [in hands] for long enough, it melts in your hands, and doesn't poison you like Mercury would. This is because of its unusually low melting point of (~29 degree Centigrade).

- It melts once it reaches its melting point.

open the phase diagram for co2 given in the introduction again. use the phase diagram for co2 in the interactive activity and de
Annette [7]

The phase diagram of CO2 has a melting curve that slopes up and to the right, in contrast to the phase diagram of water, which has a more conventional shape. It is impossible for liquid CO2 to exist at pressures lower than 5.11 atm because the triple point is 5.11 atm and 56.6 °C.

Due to the fact that ice is less thick than liquid water, the phase diagram of water has an odd melting point that drops with pressure. Carbon dioxide cannot exist as a liquid at atmospheric pressure, according to the phase diagram of the gas. Thus, gaseous carbon dioxide directly sublimes from solid carbon dioxide.
