Explain why atoms move at different speeds depending on whether they are in liquids or solids.

<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.

Please i need help really quickly on this. thank you​

Answer:

the error could have been the fact that the unit for volume wasn't changed from cm³ to dm³

hence the calculation error

the solution to this would be first dividing the volume by 1000 to get that same amount in dm³ which is the standard unit to be used for volume-density calculations

Which statement describes heterogeneous mixtures?
Artemon [7]
<span>The righ answer is the option A. They are made up of two or more pure substances that are not chemically bonded. A classicall expample ot heterogeneous mixtures are sugar and salt. Sugar is a pure substance, salt is also a pure substance, when you mixe them you form mixture where salt is still salt and sugar is still sugar, that is what "they are not chemically bonded" means. So you can separate them by physical media. </span>

arsen [322]
<h3><u>Answer</u>;</h3>

a. 3 molecules 3 carbon

b. 6 molecules 18 carbon

c. 6 molecules 18 carbon

d. 5 molecules 15 carbon

e. 3 molecules 15 carbon

f. 3 molecules 15 carbon

<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>
  • In the Calvin cycle, carbon atoms from CO2 are ncorporated into organic molecules and then  used to build three-carbon sugars, a process that is fueled by, and dependent on, ATP and NADPH from the light reactions.
  • Calvin cycle take place in the stroma. Reactions of Calvin cycle are divided into three main stages: carbon fixation, reduction, and regeneration of the starting molecule.
  • During carbon fixation, a CO2 molecule combines with a five carbon acceptor molecule ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate. The result is a six carbon compound that splits to two three carbon compound, 3-PGA.
  • During reduction; ATP and NADPH are used to convert the 3-PGA molecules into molecules of a three-carbon sugar, glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate.
  • Finally during regeneration, some G3P molecules are used to make glucose while others are recycled to regenerate RuBP acceptor.
