What state of matter can expand to fit the volume of a container

Chemistry
1 answer:
Nikolay [14]3 years ago
3 0

The liquid state of matter can do this, as its atoms aren’t as tightly connected as the ones in solids. Imagine you have a big pile of marbles. In this analogy, solids would be strong magnetic marbles, which, once formed, would keep their shape. Liquids would be like barely bonded marbles, basically loose, which would accomodate themselves to the bowl where they would be in. And gas would be floating marbles, flying around, spreading whenever empty space can be found.

A student makes a compound of sulfur and oxygen. She uses 5.00 g of sulfur and 4.99 g of oxygen, and all of the elemental substa
victus00 [196]
First, we apply the law of conservation of mass which states that the total mass in a system remains constant.
Therefore, there must be 5.00 g of sulfur and 4.99 g of oxygen in the product. Now, we determine the mass percentage using:

Mass % = (mass of sulfur x 100) / total mass of compound

Mass % = (5 * 100) / (5 + 4.99)

Mass % = 50.05%

The product contains 50.05% sulfur by mass.
