Answer:
do what you can do not what people tell you to do
Explanation:
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)
Answer:
D) 1 iron(II), 2 chloride
Explanation:
Iron II chloride is the compound; FeCl2. It is formed as follows, ionically;
Fe^2+(aq) + 2Cl^-(aq) -----> FeCl2
The formation of one mole of FeCl2 involves the reaction one mole of iron and two moles of chloride ions. This means that in FeCl2, the ratio of iron to chlorine is 1:2 as seen above.
Therefore there is one iron II ion and two chloride ions in each mole of iron II chloride, hence the answer.
Answer:
Open spaces in water's solid structure makes its solid state less dense than its liquid state.
Explanation:
- Water unlike other liquids is special. It contracts when cooled, down to a temperature of 4°C but thereafter begins to expand as it reaches 0°C and turns into ice.
- This property is useful for the preservation of marine life in very cold temperatures. During winter, the surface water in water lakes and rivers starts cooling. Upon reaching the temperature of 4°C, the surface water descends to the bottom as it denser.
- This help in the maintenance of temperature of the water at the bottom at 4°C. It is in this layer that marine life is sustained.
Answer:
Explanation:
C + O2 → CO2
Mole of C = 24 g/(12 g/mole)
Mole of C = 2 mole
Mole of molecular O2 = 74 g/(32 g/mole)
Mole of molecular O2 = 2.3125 mole
Since mole of C < mole of O2, then C being the limiting reagent.
From the reaction, it shows that mole ratio between C and O2 = 1 : 1.
So, 2 moles of C will stoichiometrically react with 2 moles of O2 to generate 2 moles of CO2.
Avogadro's law states that :"equal volumes of all gases, at the same temperature and pressure, have the same number of molecules i.e. 6.02 x 10^23 molecules/mole.
Therefore, 2 moles of CO2 contain 2 moles x 6.02 x 10^23 molecules/mole = 1.204 x 10^24 molecules of CO2 is formed.
