Why are gases compressible

Chemistry
1 answer:
Kamila [148]2 years ago
7 0

Hi my dear friend,

The atoms, ions, or molecules that make up the solid or liquid are very close together. There is no space between the individual particles, so they cannot pack together. ... Gases are compressible because most of the volume of a gas is composed of the large amounts of empty space between the gas particles.

~Thank you

A certain solid has a density of 8.0 g/cm3. if 4.0 g of this solid are poured into 4.00 ml of water, which drawing below most cl
Alexandra [31]
Answer is: <span>the volume of water after the solid is added</span> is 4.5 ml.
d(gold) = 8.0 g/cm³; density of gold.
m(gold) = 4 g; mass of gold.
V(gold) = m(gold) ÷ d(gold); volume of gold.
V(gold) = 4 g ÷ 8 g/cm³.
V(gold) = 0.5 cm³ = 0.5 ml.
V(water) = 4.00 ml = 4.00 cm³.
V(flask) = V(gold) + V(water).
V(flask) = 0.5 cm³ + 4 cm³.V = 4.5 cm³.

You’ve been waiting for the bus and your hands become cold. When you get onto the bus and sit down, you put your hands under you
snow_tiger [21]

Explanation:

The <u>First Law of Thermodynamics</u> states that energy cannot be created or destroyed in an isolated system. In other words, energy can be converted from one form into another, but it cannot be created nor destroyed.

<u>Conduction</u> is the transfer of energy from one molecule to another by direct contact. This transfer occurs when molecules hit against each other, which can take place in solids, liquids, and gases.

When you put your cold hands under your legs to warm your hands up, the heat energy from your legs is being transferred to your hands through conduction. However, since energy cannot be created, there is no extra heat energy that can instantaneously replace the heat created by your legs.
