A molecular solid coexists with its liquid phase at its melting point. The solid-liquid mixture is heated, but the temperature d

oes not change while the solid is melting.
The best explanation for this phenomenon is that the heat absorbed by the mixture:

A. is lost to the surroundings very quickly
B. is used in overcoming the intermolecular attractions in the solid
C. is used in breaking the bonds within the molecules of the solid
D. causes the nonbonding electrons in the molecules to move to lower energy levels

Describe what occurs to the particles of a substance when the substance melts. Explain why this occurs.
GuDViN [60]

Explanation:

As a substance melts, and goes from a solid to a liquid state, the kinetic energy of the molecules increases, and the molecules move faster, and they separate further and further away from each other. The intermolecluar forces holding the molecules together become weaker

Determine which physical conditions are necessary to support nuclear fusion and formation of stars.
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

Promotes Stellar Formation:

-Increased Gravitational Attraction

-Higher Temperature

Does Not Promote Stellar Formation:

-Decreased Gravitational Attraction

-Lower Temperature

Explanation:

Stars need at least three million kelvins to form, and the gravitational attraction helps form the star in the first place.

The density of water is 1.00 g/ml at 4°c. how many water molecules are present in 2.36 ml of water at this temperature?
spin [16.1K]

Mass of 1 ml of water 1 g as density of water 1.00 g/ml at 4° C. So, mass of 2.36 ml of water \frac{1}{2.36} g= 0.423 g.

Molecular mass of water is 18 g which indicates 18 g water contains 6.023 X 10^{23} number of water molecules. So, 0.423 g of water contains \frac{6.023 X 10^{23} X 0.423 }{18}  g = 0.141 X 10^{23} number of water molecules= 1.41 X 10^{22} number of water molecules.

The structure that houses dna
Alecsey [184]

The nucleus (plural, nuclei) houses the cell's genetic material, or DNA, and is also the site of synthesis for ribosomes, the cellular machines that assemble proteins. Inside the nucleus, chromatin (DNA wrapped around proteins, described further below) is stored in a gel-like substance called nucleoplasm.

Look up and compare the normal boiling points and normal melting points of H2O and H2S. Based on these physical properties, whic
NeTakaya

Explanation:

Both melting and boiling point of water are much higher that that of H2S.

The MP and BP of water are 0°C and 100°C respectively whereas the MP and BP of H2S are -82°C and -60°C respectively.

Clearly, the intermolecular forces in H2O are much stronger than in H2S because, H2O has hydrogen bonding in it, which is both inter and intra. Whereas H2S has only weak van der waal force between their molecules. This is why boiling and melting points of H2O is more than that of H2S.

Hydrogen bonding is a particular type of dipole-dipole association which occurs between atoms of hydrogen bound to strongly electronegative atoms that are either fluorine, oxygen or nitrogen.

The hydrogen atom's partially positive side is drawn to the partially negative end of these atoms found in some other molecule. It is a strong binding mechanism between the molecules.
