What is the arrangement of water in the gaseous liquid and solid states

In the gaseous state, the molecules are spread very widely apart from one another and are free to move about. If placed in a container, the molecules will occupy the volume of the container and take its shape as well.

The molecules in the liquid state are closer than in the gaseous state and less free to move about. They are in layers that slide over one another, allowing the substance to flow. If placed in a container, the liquid water will take its shape but not the volume.

The molecules in the solid state are fixed in position, only able to vibrate about their fixed points. The structure formed is rigid, it does not flow and its shape and volume are fixed.

A small diamond, which is made of pure carbon, contains too many carbon atoms to count individually. Which is closest to the num
8090 [49]

The correct answer is option C, 5.02 x 10²² carbon atoms

Atomic mass of C = 12 g/mol

According to Avogadro, 1 mole of C has 6.023 x 10²³C atoms

Now 1 mole of C is equal to 12 g

Therefore, 12 g of C = 6.023 x 10²³ C atoms

1 g of C = \frac{6.023 x 10^2^3}{12} C atoms = 5.02 x 10²² C atoms

Consider the following isotopic abundance data for argon (Ar) and silicon (Si):
pshichka [43]

Answer:

Explanation:

Molar mass of Argon

= 35.96755 x .00337 + 37.96272 x .00063 + 39.96240 x .99600

= .12121 + .0239165 + 39.80255

= 39.95

Molar mass of silicon

27.97693 x .9223 + 28.97649 x .0467 + 29.97376 x .0310

= 25.803 + 1.35320 + .929

= 28.08

b )

No of atoms of Si  in 78.2 g = 78.2 x 6.02 x 10²³ / 28.08

= 16.76 x 10²³ .

c )

42 Ar / 40 Ar = 1.05006

42 Ar / 39.95 = 1.05006

42Ar = 41.95

2 )

C₁₆H₁₅F₂N₃O₄S

Mol weight = 16 x 12 + 1 x 15 + 2 x 19 + 3 x 14 + 4 x 16 + 32

= 192 + 15 + 38 + 42 + 64+ 32

= 383

No of molecules = .078 x 6.02 x 10²³ / 383

= 1.226 x 10²⁰ molecules .

U-238 has _____ protons and 146 neutrons
qaws [65]
U-238 
The number besides the U means its total molar mass. The molar mass of this element is 238
Molar mass= protons + neutrons
This means that 238= 146 + protons
Do 238 - 146

Which description is true of 0.02 M Ca(OH)2 if Ca(OH)2 completely dissociates in water? A. It’s a dilute strong acid. B. It’s a
Sphinxa [80]

Answer: B. It’s a dilute strong base.


Explanation:


1) Definition of acids and bases: as per Bronsted-Lowry model, an acid is a substance that donates hydrogen ions and a base is a substance that accepts hydrogen ions.

Ca(OH)₂ does not have hydrogen ions to donate, but it can accept hydrogen ions to form H₂O according to this equation: H⁺ + OH⁻ → H₂O.

Hence,  Ca(OH)₂ is a base.


2) Definition of strong base: a strong base is a base that dissociates completely into metallic and hydroxide ions in aqueous solutions, while a weak base dissociates partially.


Hence, Ca(OH)₂ is a strong base.


3) Definition of dilute: it refers to a solution meaning that the substance is not pure and the concentration is low. Since, the solution the Ca(OH)₂ is 0.02 M means that it is dilute.


Therefore, we have found that the description of 0.02 M Ca(OH)₂ is that is is a dilute strong base (option B).
