Answer:

Non metals are brittle solids.

Explanation:

The option A is correct,

Non metals are brittle solids.

It is the property of non metals. They can not be stretched into thin wire if stress is applied non metals brake down.

All other options are incorrect because,

B = Non metals are often malleable

It is the property of metals. Metals can be malleable into think sheets.

C = Non metals often conduct electricity.

It is the property of metals. Metals conduct electricity because of availability of free electrons.

D =  Non metals are often ductile.

It is the property of metals. They can stretched into thin wire.

Alex
Specific heat is the quantity of heat required to change the temperature of 1 gram of a substance by 1 degree Celsius. It is the amount per unit mass that is required to raise the temperature by one degree Celsius. Every substance has its own specific heat and each has its own distinct value. The units of specific heat are joules per gram-degree Celsius (J/f C) and sometimes J/Kg K may also be used.

Pablo's experiments confirm the relationship between pressure and the number of gas molecules. as the pressure in a system incre
horrorfan [7]
The correct answer is:  [C]:  
___________________________________________________________
          "<span>pressure and the number of gas molecules are directly related."
___________________________________________________________
<u>Note</u>:  The conclusion was: "</span> as the pressure in a system increases, the number of gas molecules increases" — over the course of many trials.
          This means that the "pressure" and the "number of gas molecules" are directly related.

Furthermore, this conclusion is consistent with the "ideal gas law" equation:

     " PV = nRT " ; 
____________________________________________________________
in which:

    "P = Pressure" ; 
    "n = number of gas molecules" ; 
___________________________________________________________
        All other factors held equal, when "n" (the "number of gas molecules") 
 increases in value (on the "right-hand side" of the equation), the value for "P" (the "pressure" — on the "left-hand side" of the equation), increases.

navik [9.2K]

Answer:

The particles of the liquid slide around faster as the kinetic energy of the particles increases.

Explanation:

After all the bonds in the solid state are broken in part CD, the more free particles in the liquid state gain more kinetic energy with increase in energy supplied.

The increase in kinetic energy is indicated by the temperature increase thus the positive gradient of the part CD.

Kinetic energy means more vibrations thus the particles slide more and more against each other.
