Gaseous matter has no definite shape because the particles are packed so loosely and are very energetic, moving a lot.

How does velocity and mass affect momentum?
ollegr [7]

Velocity and mass are directly proportional to the quantity of momentum by:

p = mv. Therefore, and increase in either velocity or mass will lead to an increase in momentum and vice versa. Momentum during a reaction is always conserved, meaning that the mass and initial velocity before a reaction will always be equal to the change in mass and velocity produced after the reaction. Kinetic energy after a reaction, however, is not always conserved. For example if a fast moving vehicle collided with a stationary vehicle, and moved together, the overall kinetic energy would be after the reaction, as a heaver mass would be moved by the same velocity causing a decrease in kinetic energy.

I don't know if this is exactly what you are looking for, but in physics this is how it is understood.

How many bromine atoms are present in 37.9 g of CH2Br2?
VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

The answer to your question is: 6.55 x 10 ²³ atoms of Br

Explanation:

CH2Br2 = 37.9 g

MW CH2Br2 = (12 x 1) + (2 x 1) + (80 x 2) = 174 g

                   174 g of CH2Br2 ------------------  160 g of Br2

                   37.9 g of CH2Br2   ---------------     x

                x = 37.9 x 160/174 = 34.85 g of Br

                      1 mol of Br -----------------   160 g Br2

                         x              ----------------    174 g Be2

               x = 174 x 1 /160 = 1.088 mol of Br2

                1 mol of Br -----------------  6.023 x 10 ²³ atoms

            1.088 mol of Br -------------    x

                    x = 1.088 x 6.023 x 10 ²³ / 1 = 6.55 x 10 ²³ atoms

Balance this equation. Pb(NO3)2(aq)+NaCl(aq) -> NaNO3(aq)+PbCl2(s)
const2013 [10]

Answer:

Pb(NO3)2(aq) + 2NaCl(aq) -> 2NaNO3(aq)+PbCl2(s)

Explanation:

Pb(NO3)2(aq)+NaCl(aq) -> NaNO3(aq)+PbCl2(s)

This is how it starts out.

Left:

  • 2 NO3s
  • 1 Pb
  • 1 Na
  • 1 Cl

Right

  • 1 Na
  • 1 NO3
  • 1 Pb
  • 2 Cl

So the place to start with this equation is to bring the Cls up to 2

Pb(NO3)2(aq)+2NaCl(aq) -> NaNO3(aq)+PbCl2(s)

But the Nas are now out of kilter.

Pb(NO3)2(aq)+ 2NaCl(aq) -> NaNO3(aq)+PbCl2(s)

Now the right has a problem. There's only 1 Na

Pb(NO3)2(aq) + 2 NaCl(aq) -> 2NaNO3(aq)+PbCl2(s)

Check it out. It looks like we are done.

Which statement describes a chemical property of water?
anygoal [31]
<span>The chemical description of water is H2O, which means, it is composed of 2 hydrogen atoms and 1 oxygen atom. The answer to this item is the fourth option, " It is clear and colorless." When water is added with calcium, clear, colorless bubbles are formed. This explains a reaction of water with acid. The following are additional facts about water properties: Density: 1 g/cm³ Boiling point: 100 °C Molar mass: 18.01528 g/mol Melting point: 0 °C Formula: H2O</span>
