They vibrate abour fixed points.

Since particles have charges that attract each other it stays intact.

Answer: Option (d) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Since, it is known that in solids strong intermolecular forces of attraction exists because of which particles are much closer to each other. Hence, they have definite shape and volume.

Particles of a solid are unable to move from their initial position unless an external force is applied to them. So, when no external force is applied then particles of a solid tend to vibrate at their fixed points.

Hence, we can conclude that particles tend to move in solids as they vibrate about fixed points.

If 6.02×1023 atoms of element Y have a mass of 28.09 g, what is the identity of Y?
Mazyrski [523]

Silicon is the element having a mass of 28.09 g

<u>Explanation</u>:

  • Silicon is the element having an atomic mass of 28.09 g / mol. So 28.09 g of silicon contains 6.023 \times 10^23 atoms. One mole of each element can produce one mole of compound.
  • The Atomic weight of an element can be determined by the number of protons and neutrons present in one atom of that element. So atomic weight expressed in grams always contain the same number of atoms( 6.023 \times10^23).
  • Avagadro number is the number of atoms of 1 mole of any gas at standard temperature and pressure. It has been determined that 6.023 \times 10^23 atoms of an element are equal to the average atomic mass of that element.

Maru [420]

Answer:

potential energy

Explanation:

energy which is linked with the position of the object is called as potential energy. any object possessing energy due to its position is potential energy. example is holding a basketball up in to the air at a certain height so that it will have a gravitational pull towards earth surface. this gravitation pull is called as potential energy.
