Chemistry

Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

In liquid state, particles do have kinetic energy that helps in partially overcoming the intermolecular forces between the molecules. But still the particles are close together and they are able to slide past each other.

So, when we apply pressure on a liquid then its molecules partially gets compressed.

On the other hand, molecules of a solid are held together by strong intermolecular forces of attraction. Hence, they have definite shape and volume. As a result, solids do not get compressed.

In gases and plasma state of matter, molecules are gar away from each other. So, they are able to get completely compressed when a pressure is applied.

Thus, we can conclude that liquid is the state of matter which consists of particles that can be partially compressed.

determine the average volume from the following volume reading: 3.00ml, 2.0ml, 2.987 x 10^-3 l, and 3.4856 ml
lesya [120]

Answer:

The average of given values is 2.1221 ml

Explanation:

Given data:

Given measurements = 3.00 ml , 2.0 ml, 2.987 × 10⁻³ml , 3.4856 ml

Average value of given measurements = ?

Solution:

Formula:

Average value = sum of all measurement  / total number of measurements

2.987 × 10⁻³ml = 0.002987 ml

Now we will put the  values.

Average value = 3.00 ml + 2.0 ml + 0.002987 ml+ 3.4856 ml / 4

Average value = 8.488587 ml / 4

Average value =  2.1221 ml

The average of given values is 2.1221 ml
