<span>Atoms move at different speeds depending on whether they are in liquids or solids </span><span>because the atoms or particles in solids are closely bonded while they are loosely bonded in liquids.
</span><span>
</span><span>
</span><span>The attractive forces between the particles are so high that they remain in fixed positions. The particles, then, cannot slip over the neighbors particles. They can only vibrate. That is why solids have definite form and volume.</span><span />

<span>That the particles in liquids are loosely bonded means that the attractive forces are less compared with solids. Then the partilces can move and pass each other. They are not in fixed arrangements any more. Yet the particles are attracted to each other, so they have definite volume, although they take the form of the vessel, and they can flow.

Use the formula (P1V1)/T1 = (P2V2)/T2
(12.8 * 100)/(-108 + 273) = (.855 * P2)/(22 + 273)  Need to convert Celsius into Kelvins
1280/165 = (0.855 * P2)/295
7.755556 = 0.002898 * P2
P2 = 2676.18 kPa

Genetic engineers must modify eukaryotic genes so that they can be expressed in bacterial host cells. The DNA from a eukaryotic
denpristay [2]

Answer:

Bacterial genes contain no introns, so the cells, which lack splicing machinery, cannot express eukaryotic genes containing introns and exons. Mature eukaryotic mRNA, which has already been spliced, contains only exons, which, after they have been converted back to DNA, can be transcribed and translated by the bacteria.

Which statements describe Rutherford’s model of the atom? Select three options.
AnnZ [28]

Answer:

Well, I cannot see the options but if I were you I would choose the one closest to this. Rutherford's model shows that an atom is mostly empty space, with electrons orbiting a fixed, positively charged nucleus in set, predictable paths.

Explanation:

Again I cannot see the options but here is what I would guess. Hope this helped and have a great day! :-)
