An analogy makes a comparison between objects based on their similar qualities. Cassidy wanted to create an analogy for the moti

on of atoms in solids, liquids, and gases, so she compared them to marbles in a tray. Which best compares the phases of matter to marbles in a tray?
A) A solid is like the tray being shaken and the marbles moving around it, and a liquid is like the tray being shaken slowly and all the marbles moving in their positions.

B) A solid is like the tray being shaken slowly and all the marbles moving in their positions, a liquid is like the tray being shaken and the marbles moving around it, and a gas is like the tray being shaken hard and the marbles moving vigorously around it.
C) A gas is like the tray being shaken slowly and all the marbles moving in their positions, and a solid is like the tray being shaken hard and the marbles moving vigorously around it.
D) A liquid is like the tray being shaken hard and the marbles moving vigorously around it, and a gas is like the tray being shaken slowly and all the marbles moving in their positions.

The correct option is B.

Matters exist in three phases, which are solid, liquids and gas. These three phases behaves differently based on their structures. Solids have definite shape and volume and their particles are tightly connected, so their particles vibrate about a fixed position. Liquids have definite volume but no shape. The inter molecular force among liquid particles is not as strong as that of solid, so the particles can move around slowly. Gases has no shape and no volume. The inter molecular force in gas particles are negligible and thus, they move about freely and randomly and fill all the available spaces.

I think the correct answer from the choices listed above option B.  A solid is like the tray being shaken slowly and all the marbles moving in their positions, a liquid is like the tray being shaken and the marbles moving around it, and a gas is like the tray being shaken hard and the marbles moving vigorously around it. Hope this helps.

Why don't we use meters or miles when discussion distances between stars or galaxies?
taurus [48]
If we use mile or something else it will be hard to measure in sky .
Because the mile or meters too short for the space,
Galaxy and stars are too long far away from us if we use mile or meter,
It till be take like miliion year to measure.

What is the percent by mass of Fluorine in Nitrogen triflouride NF3?
Kipish [7]

Answer:

The answer to your question is 80.3%

Explanation:

Data

Percent by mass of F

molecules NF₃

Process

1.- Calculate the molar mass of nitrogen trifluoride

molar mass = (1 x 14) + (19 x 3)

                    = 14 + 57

                    = 71 g

2.- Use proportions and cross multiplications to find the percent by mass of F. The molar mass of NF₃ is equal to 100%.

                       71 g of NF₃ ------------------ 100%

                       57 g of F   ------------------- x

                            x = (57 x 100)/71

                            x = 5700 / 71

                            x = 80.3%

3.- Conclusion

Fluorine is 80.3% by mass of the molecule NF₃

How can we find the volume of this fish tank? Please I needed but Good
r-ruslan [8.4K]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

Find the number of 1-foot cubes that fill the fish tank

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>

Volume of a cuboid such as the fish tank is given by the product of length width and height;

Such that; Volume = length × width × height

Similarly, we can count the number of 1 foot cube that can fill the fish tank.

And since each cube has a volume of 1 cubic ft, then the number of cubes will be equivalent to the volume of the fish tank in cubic ft.

An interplanetary probe returns to Earth with soil samples. The atoms in the sample are sorted by their number of protons. A new
Leya [2.2K]

Answer is: the average atomic mass is 232.

ω₁ = 20% ÷ 100%.

ω₁ = 0.20.

ω₂ = 80% ÷ 100%.

ω₂ = 0.80.

Ar₁ = 120 (number of protons) + 120 (number of neutrons).

Ar₁ = 240.

Ar₂ = 120 + 110 .

Ar₂ = 230.

Average atomic mass of atoms of bolognium =  

Ar₁ · ω₁ + Ar₂ · ω₂.  

Average atomic mass of atoms of bolognium =  240 · 0.2 + 230 · 0.8.  

Average atomic mass of atoms of bolognium = 48 + 184.  

Average atomic mass of atoms of bolognium = 232.
