Choose all that apply. Solids, liquids, and gases can be distinguished by their:molecular weight shape temperature kinetic energ
vesna_86 [32]
So, we have:
- molecular weight
- shape
- temperature
- kinetic energy
- mass
- density

Let's rule out the different options.
- molecular weight: Say you have a molecule of H2O. H2O can be a solid, liquid, or gas, but its molecular weight never changes throughout (It's still the same molecule, no matter what phase it is in). We can rule this out.

- shape: Let's pretend we have three identical closed containers, and we fill each one halfway with water, blocks of ice cubes, and water vapor. In the container with water, you will see that the water takes the shape of the container, but doesn't fill the entire container up. The ice cubes will stay ice cubes, assuming they don't melt, so they don't take the shape of the container. The vapor will fill up the entire container. Since all three are different, I would say yes, this could be a distinguishable feature.

- temperature: In general, I would say no, because every element/molecule has different boiling points and different vaporization points. So if you have a liquid at 5°C, you could also have a different element in solid form at 5°C. But if you're comparing a single type of molecule, it would have a boiling point and a vaporization point, so you <em>would</em> be able to tell between them.

- kinetic energy: Kinetic energy refers to how much movement there is in respect to each molecule. In solids, the molecules are packed tightly together and can't move very much, so they have lower kinetic energy. In liquids, they are less packed, but still restricted. And in gases, they can fly freely, so they will have much more kinetic energy than liquids or solids. This one's a yes.

- mass: No matter what form, there are still the same amount of molecules, and each molecule has the same mass as before. It won't change.

- density: Since the molecules are more spread out in gases, it will be less dense. Liquids will be more dense, and solids will have the greatest density. So, yes.

Conclusion: shape, kinetic energy, density, (and temperature if it's talking about a single type of molecule)

tia_tia [17]

Answer: 10.2 grams

Explanation:

The balanced chemical reaction is :

CaH_2(s)+2H_2O(l)\rightarrow Ca(OH)_2(aq)+2H_2(g)

According to the ideal gas equation:

PV=nRT

P = Pressure of the gas = 740 torr =  0.97 atm    (760torr=1atm)

V= Volume of the gas = 12.0 L

T= Temperature of the gas = 19°C = 292 K    0^0C=273K

R= Gas constant = 0.0821 atmL/K mol

n= moles of gas

n=\frac{PV}{RT}=\frac{0.97\times 12.0}{0.0821\times 292}

n=0.48

According to stoichiometry:

2 moles of hydrogen are generated by = 1 mole of CaH_2

Thus 0.48 moles of hydrogen are generated by =\frac{1}{2}\times 0.48=0.24 moles of CaH_2

Mass of  CaH_2=moles\times {\text {Molar mass}}=0.24mol\times 42g/mol=10.2g

Thus 10.2 grams of CaH_2 are needed to generate 12.0 L of hydrogen gas if the pressure of hydrogen is 740. torr at 19°C

When a capacitor has a potential difference between the plates it is said to be ? . one plate has an excess of electrons and one
Ede4ka [16]

When a capacitor has a potential difference between the plates it is said to be Constant.

Both plates have different charge which signifies that one has higher potential than the other.

Therefore, when we join them in parallel, charge will flow from higher to lower. and it continued to flow until equilibrium (the entire process took only a few seconds), indicating that the potential remains constant.
