What is the lewis dot structure of NaBr

1. Something must have mass in order to create change.

nignag [31]

These are three questions each with its complete answer.

Question 1. Something must have mass in order to create change.

A. True

B. False

Answer:

False

Explanation:

Two counter examples will prove that the statement is false.

light and fire

Neither light nor fire have mass, so they are not considered matter, but yet both can create changes.

Light is an electromagnetic wave, so it is energy, and as such it, of course, can cause some changes. One example are the chemical reactions, like photosynthesis, which require light to happen.

Ligth may also be described either as quanta named photons. Although photons behave like particles they do not have mass.

So, that example contradicts the statement that something must have mass in order to create change.

Fire also contradicts the statement. Fire is a manifestation of energy, it does not have mass, and sure you know how fire create changes in living and no living things.

Question 2. Powdered medicine fills a pill capsule. Which of the following is the best description of the state of the powder?

A. It is a solid because all powders are solid.

B. It is a gas because it takes up the entire volume of the pill capsule.

C. It is a liquid because it does not hold a definite shape.

Answer: the best description is the choice A:

A. It is a solid because all powders are solid.

Explanation:

Indeed, although sometimes the powder may be very fine (dust), yet it is not liquid or gas. Powders are always solid.

There are four main states of matter: solid, liquid, gas, and plasma.

Liquids are able to take the form of the container but do not occupy the entire container. Gases do occupy the entire container.

When powder is very fine it could resemble some properties of liquid, but the structure of powders is not crystaline, this is it is not an ordered arrangement. The structure of powders is an ordered arrangement, so powders are solids and not liquids.

It is easy to discard that a powdered medicine could be a gas, because it definetly do not occupy the entire volume of the pill capsule.

Question 3. Find an example of something that you do NOT know the state of. Describe it, and tell me your best guess of what state it is. Explain your guess.

Answer:

Two examples come to my mind:

A paste like Nutella or toothpaste

Wax of a candle

Explanation:

I will use the example of Nutella to complete the answer.

Nutella is not a gas because when you open the jar it will not escape and fill the room around it.

When you put Nutella in a plate it will not flow over the whole plate, is it a solid ? But yet you can spread it easyly over a cookie. Is it a liquid?

So, Nutella behaves like a solid until you apply some force over it and then it seems a liquid.

I would guess that pastes are solids because they should have an inner structure that keep the particles together.

If you do some research you will find that pastes are neither liquid nor solids, they are named gels. And gels may be seen as a dispersion of molecules of a liquid within a solid, i.e. in liquid particles dispersed in the solid medium

This sure meets the requirements of this question.

If there is a New Moon at midnight on October 1, when would the next New Moon occur?

irina1246 [14]

Answer: C

Explanation: A lunar month is 29.53 earth days. Since an earth calendar as only integer days, it could be either 29 or 30 days later.

A chemist prepares a solution of potassium dichromate by measuring out of potassium dichromate into a volumetric flask and filli

riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

0.297 mol/L

Explanation:

A chemist prepares a solution of potassium dichromate by measuring out 13.1 g of potassium dichromate into a 150 mL volumetric flask and filling the flask to the mark with water. Calculate the concentration in mol/L of the chemist's potassium dichromate solution. Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits.

Step 1: Calculate the moles corresponding to 13.1 g of potassium dichromate

The molar mass of potassium dichromate is 294.19 g/mol.

13.1 g × (1 mol/294.19 g) = 0.0445 mol

Step 2: Convert the volume of solution to L

We will use the relationship 1 L = 1000 mL.

150 mL × (1 L/1000 mL) = 0.150 L

Step 3: Calculate the concentration of the solution in mol/L

C = 0.0445 mol/0.150 L = 0.297 mol/L

1. Draw a wedge/dash structure for trans-1,2-dimethylcyclohexane.

Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

The structure with the ring flipped is the most stable

Explanation:

We have the trans 1,2 - dimethylcyclohexane. With the wedge/dash structure we could not figure is this form is stable (If we do a comparison with the cis structure). But when we do a chair structure and ring flipped structure, this is easier to look.

The picture attached shows the structures, they are labeled as 1, 2 and 3, according to this problem.

In the chair structure, according to the picture below, you can see that both methyls are heading in the axial positions of the ring (One facing upward and the other downward). This is pretty stable, however, when the methyls are in those positions, the methyl position 1, can undergoes an 1,3 diaxial interactions with the hydrogens atoms (They are not drawn, but still are there), so this interaction makes this structure a little less stable that it can be.

On the other side, the ring flipped structure, we can see that both methyls are in the equatorials positions of the ring, and in these positions, it can avoid the 1,4 diaxial interactions with the hydrogens atoms, making this structure the most stable structure.

Hope this helps
