What are the characteristics of a substance in the liquid state?

Answer: <span>Made up of particles packed relatively close together, having an indefinite shape but a definite volume

------

Start by thinking about how you know a liquid works. For example, think about water. Water you can pour into a cup and it takes the shape of that cup. Pour into a bowl and it takes the shape of the bowl. That means it, unlike a solid, doesn't have a definite shape/has an indefinite shape. You can rule out the first choice.

Also notice that water must have a definite volume. You can't have more water in the cup one second, and less the next second. The volume/space it takes up remains the same. This is unlike a gas, which can spread out or be compressed. That means you can eliminate the last two choices, making B the correct answer.

Chemically speaking, the particles of liquids are close together, but not packed tightly as in a solid (see picture). The electrons and protons make up the atom, but are microscopic. </span><span>

What is the daughter nucleus (nuclide) produced when 64 Cu Cu64 undergoes beta decay by emitting an electron? Replace each quest
kenny6666 [7]

<u>Answer:</u> The daughter nuclide formed by the beta decay of given isotope is _{30}^{64}\textrm{Zn}

<u>Explanation:</u>

Beta decay is defined as the process in which beta particle is emitted. In this process, a neutron gets converted to a proton and an electron.

The released beta particle is also known as electron.

_Z^A\textrm{X}\rightarrow _{Z+1}^A\textrm{Y}+_{-1}^0\beta

We are given:

Parent isotope = _{29}^{64}\textrm{Cu}

The chemical equation for the beta decay process of _{29}^{64}\textrm{Cu} follows:

_{29}^{64}\textrm{Cu}\rightarrow _{30}^{64}\textrm{Zn}+_{-1}^0\beta

Hence, the daughter nuclide formed by the beta decay of given isotope is _{30}^{64}\textrm{Zn}

Some one help me please I'm stuck Show using two conversion factors how you would convert from 0.020 kg into mg.
julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:

=2.0x10^4mg

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, when performing units conversions involving two proportional factors we need to make sure we first convert to the base unit and then to the target one; thus, since 1 kg = 1000 g and 1 g = 1000 mg, we set up the following expression:

=0.020kg*\frac{1000g}{1kg} *\frac{1000mg}{1g} \\\\=2.0x10^4mg

Best regards!
