Answer: The property that will best provide evidence that the samples are solid includes:
--> if the substance has a definite shape,
-->if the substance has a definite volume
--> if it's tightly packed.
Explanation:
According to the kinetic theory of matter, every substance consist of very large number of very small particles called molecules. These molecules, which are made up of atoms that are the smallest particles of a substance that can exist in a free state.
Matter can exist in the following states:
--> Solid state
--> liquid state or
--> Gaseous state.
The general property of a substance that is in gaseous state includes:
--> Definite shape: A substance can be grouped as a solid if it's shape is fixed that is, it doesn't depend on the shape of other materials.
--> Definite volume: A substance can be grouped as a solid if it occupies its own shape. This is due to the force of cohesion among its molecules.
--> Tightly packed: A substance can be grouped as solid if the molecular movements of the particles are negligible.
From the samples under observation by Juan and kym, if the sample that possesses the above described qualities, it is a solid rather than liquid or gas.
Answer:
a) The final pressure is 1.68 atm.
b) The work done by the gas is 305.3 J.
Explanation:
a) The final pressure of an isothermal expansion is given by:
Where:
: is the initial pressure = 5.79 atm
: is the final pressure =?
: is the initial volume = 420 cm³
: is the final volume = 1450 cm³
n: is the number of moles of the gas
R: is the gas constant
Hence, the final pressure is 1.68 atm.
b) The work done by the isothermal expansion is:
Therefore, the work done by the gas is 305.3 J.

The greenhouse effect is a warming effect caused by certain gases that retain heat from sunlight. Without such gases, the average surface temperature of the Earth would be below freezing, and as explained by the Encyclopedia of Environmental Science, “life, as we know it, would not exist.”

The global warming debate is centered upon whether added greenhouse gases released by human activity will overheat the Earth and cause harmful effects.</span><span>

If I remember correctly (from my studies long time ago) the layers are from the outer to the center:
SiAl : Silicon-Aluminum
SiMa : Silicon-Magnesium (although should be Mg)
NiFe : Nickel-Iron
The SiMa layer should have the lightest elements (Magnesium is lighter than Aluminum)
