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

1 answer:

6 0

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.

Answer:

$V=23.9mL$

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case for the solution you are given, we first use the mass to compute the moles of CuNO3:

$n=2.49g*\frac{1mol}{125.55 g}=0.0198mol$

Next, knowing that the molarity has units of moles over liters, we can solve for volume as follows:

$M=\frac{n}{V}\\\\V=\frac{n}{M}$

By plugging in the moles and molarity, we obtain:

$V=\frac{0.0198mol}{0.830mol/L}=0.0239L$

Which in mL is:

$V=0.0239L*\frac{1000mL}{1L}\\\\V=23.9mL$

Best regards!

What is the nuclear binding energy for thorium-234? 2.78 × 10-10 J 3.36 × 10-14 J 1.67 × 1017 J 5.35 x 10-23 J

The correct option is A.
To calculate the binding energy, you have to find the mass defect first.
Mass defect = [mass of proton and neutron] - Mass of the nucleus
The molar mass of thorium that we are given in the question is 234, the atomic number of thorium is 90, that means the number of neutrons in thorium is
234 - 90 = 144.
The of proton in thourium is 90, same as the atomic number.
Mass defect = {[90 * 1.00728] +[144* 1.00867]} - 234
Note that each proton has a mass of 1.00728 amu and each neutron has the mass of 1.00867 amu.
Mass defect = [90.6552 + 145.24848] - 234 = 1.90368 amu.
Note that the unit of the mass is in amu, it has to be converted to kg
To calculate the mass in kg
Mass [kg] = 1.90368 * [1kg/6.02214 * 10^-26 = 3.161135 * 10^-27
To calculate the binding energy
E = MC^2
C = Speed of light constant = 2.9979245 *10^8 m/s2
E = [3.161135 * 10^-27] * [2.9979245 *10^8]^2
E = 2.84108682069 * 10^-10.
Note that we arrive at this answer because of the number of significant figures that we used.
So, from the option given, Option A is the nearest to the calculated value and is our answer for this problem.
