Select True or False: A "gas" is a substance in which the molecules are separated on the average by distances that are large com
marta [7]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

The gaseous state is characterized in that the cohesion forces are usually null, in which the particles have their maximum mobility. The particles tend to occupy all the available volume, so their shape and volume are variable. The gaseous state is a dispersed state of matter, which means that the molecules are separated by distances much larger than the diameter of the gas molecules.

Which type of reactions form salts?
s344n2d4d5 [400]

Neutralization reactions are the reactions type which form salts.

Explanation:

Salts are formed by ionic bonds when the oxidation states of anions and cations are equal and have opposite signs. So one should be highly electronegative in nature and another should be highly electropositive in nature. So the electropositive element will be ready to give electrons and the electronegative element will be ready to accept all the electrons given by the electropositive element. As a whole the compound will be neutrally charged by adding of equal number of positively charged and negatively charged ions.

The reduction or addition of electrons will be occurring in cations and the oxidation or removal of electrons will be occurring in anions.

So the salt formation is based on neutralization reactions.

hi:) anyone able to explain no.2 of what happens to particles of a solid that is heated until it melts? I don’t understand it. T
Viefleur [7K]
In a solid the particles are all really close together and stuck like that. As the solid melts and becomes a liquid the particles spread out. A solid won’t easily change its shape because the particles are bound together but in a liquid the shape is more fluid, take water when you pour it into a container it will change to fit the shape of a container this is because the particles aren’t as close and can move around. The particles of a solid change when it melts because it is changing states to a liquid.
