The state of the substance, most likely, would be a gas. Given the same amount of the substance being able to fill different volumes of containers, means that the substance is compressible. From the three phases of matter, gas is surely the compressible one while liquids are sometimes compressible but only up to certain extent. Also, the substance cannot be a a solid since a solid would have a definite shape and volume. Nor it cannot be a liquid since a liquid cannot fill the whole container and it does not change its volume no matter what is the container.

Americans eat too much salt (NaCl). A healthy adult should eat no more than 6 g of salt in one day. Use this information to answ
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

a. 58.5 g/mol

b. 0.1 mol

Explanation:

a.

The molar mass of Na is 23.0 g/mol. The molar mass of Cl is 35.5 g/mol. The molar mass of NaCl is:

M(Na) + M(Cl) = 23.0 g/mol + 35.5 g/mol = 58.5 g/mol

b. A healthy adult should eat no more than 6 g of salt in one day. The moles corresponding to 6 g of NaCl are:

6 g × (1 mol/58.5 g) = 0.1 mol

Complete the sentences to identify the trend in first ionization energies as one proceeds down the group 7A elements and explain
Harrizon [31]

Answer:

a)decrease

b)increase

c)smaller

d)smaller

Explanation:

Ionization energy decreases down the group due to increase in the atomic radius. The distance between the outermost electron and the nucleus increases hence the nuclear attraction for the outermost electrons become smaller and the ionization energy also become smaller as electrons are now easily removed from the outermost shell.

Hence the group of answer choices provided above.
