Answer : Broadly solids are divided into three categories;
i) Crystalline solids have a regular definite structure, in which the particles pack in a repeating pattern from one edge of the solid to the other.
ii) Amorphous solids have a random structure, with little unorganized pattern long-range order.
iii) Polycrystalline solids are those where an aggregate which consists of a large number of small crystals or grains in which the structure is regular, but the crystals or grains are found to be arranged in a random fashion.
Also solids can be divided into 3 more categories according to their bonds;
i) Covalent solids, like diamond, which forms crystals that can be viewed as a single giant molecule made up of an almost endless number of covalent bonds.
ii) Ionic solids are basically salts, such as NaCl, in which the molecules are held together by the strong force of attraction between ions of opposite charge.
iii) Metallic solids are found in metals which have the force of attraction between atoms of metals, such as copper and aluminum, or alloys, such as brass and bronze, are metallic bonds.
The reaction between K₂SO₄(aq) and SrI₂(aq) produces KI(aq) and SrSO₄(s) as products.
The reaction is
K₂SO₄(aq) + SrI₂(aq) → KI(aq)+ SrSO₄(s)
To balance the equation both side of the reaction should have same number of atoms in each element.
Right hand side of the reaction has 1 K, 1 I, 1 Sr, 1 S and 4 O atoms while 2 K, 2 I, 1 Sr,1 S and 4 O present in left hand side of the reaction.
Hence, number of I atoms and number of K atoms are not balanced.
To balance the K atoms we should add 2 before KI. Then I atoms will be 2 at the right hand side.
Hence, the balanced reaction equation is
K₂SO₄(aq) + SrI₂(aq) → 2KI(aq)+ SrSO₄(s)

Answer:
B) The metal temperature changed more than the water temperature did, but the metal lost
the same amount of thermal energy as the water gained.
Explanation:
Heat capacity or thermal capacity is defined as the amount of heat required by a given mass of a material to raise its temperature by one unit which means that the heat capacity of the water, that is the quantity of heat required to cause a rise from 22°C to 35°C that is a rise of 13°C is the quantity of heat that caused the drop in temperature of the metal from 100°C to 35°C a change of 65°C
The water has more capacity to absorb heat or a higher heat capacity than the metal
However, the first law of thermodynamics states that energy is neither created nor destroyed, but it changes from one form to another. In this case, the thermal energy lost by the metal is the same as the thermal or heat energy gained by the water
