Which two properties are used to define matter?

Chemistry

Fantom [35]3 years ago

The two properties which are used to define matter are that it has mass and it takes up space. The other properties do not necessarily apply to each matter. Such some matter can be a conductor of heat (such as metal) and some not (such as non metals). Likewise, some matter can be buoyant and float on liquid of density more than it but others would not on the liquids of density less than it. In-fact not all the matters are conductors of energy (such as heat, sound, electricity) or at-least a very poor conductor of energy and tend to find application as insulating agents (non conductors). So the only thing which is necessarily true is that the matter would definitely have mass in even their minutest form as atom and would take up some space.

The diagram below is an artist’s impression of a single atom of element Be. The neutrons are shown with stripes, the protons are
Ahat [919]

Answer is: beryllium-10.

The diagram shows that atom has 4 protons, 5 neutrons and 2 valence electrons.

Atomic number is the number of protons, which is characteristic of a chemical element, beryllium (Be) is an element with atomic number 4.

Two valence electrons means that atom is from 2. group of periodic table, only beryllium is from that group; sodium (1. group), boron (13. group) and carbon (14. group).

Beryllium-10 has 6 neutrons, so it is isotope (different number of neutrons or mass number).

write a generalization correlating solubility with ionization. start with: "as compounds become more ionized,..."
Tema [17]

Answer:

the solubility increases

Explanation:

The solubility of any ionic compound is due to the ionization of the compound and then the strong ion-dipole interactions acting between the ions and the solvent.

Thus, solubility also depends on the extent of the ionization of the salt.

The more the salt ionizes, the more there is ion-dipole interaction between the ions the solvent and more is the solubility.
