Luden [163]3 years ago

Answer:

Gaseous phase exert more pressure on container.

Explanation:

Pressure:

It is the force exerted by the substance on its container.

Mathematical expression:

P = F/A

P = pressure

F = force

A = area

We know that there are phases of matter solid liquid and gas.

Gases don't have definite volume and shape and take the shape and volume of container in which it present.  Molecule of gases randomly move everywhere and occupy all available space.  The molecules of gas randomly move collide with each other and also the wall of container their kinetic energy also increased because of this collision and pressure is produced

While in case of liquid molecules are packed and they can not move freely thus did not exert pressure like gaseous molecules.

In case of solids molecules are tightly packed and form more compact structure. They can not move thus did not exert pressure to the wall of container.

Properties of gases:

Molecule of gases randomly move everywhere and occupy all available space.

Gases don't have definite volume and shape and take the shape and volume of container in which it present.

Their densities are very low as compared to the liquid and solids.

Gas molecules are at long distance from each other therefore by applying pressure gases can be compressed.

The very weak inter molecular forces are present between gas molecules.

Properties of Liquid:

Liquid have definite volume but don,t have definite shape.

Their densities are high as compared to the gases but low as compared to the solids.

In liquid, molecules are close to each other and have greater inter molecular forces as compared to the gas molecules.

Properties of solids:

Solids have definite volume and shape.

In solids molecules are tightly pack and very close to each other.

Their melting and boiling point are every high.

The densities of solids are also very high as compared to the liquid and gas.

There are very strong inter molecular forces are present between solid molecules.

Assess the importance to organisms of<br> maintaining homeostasis.
sweet [91]

Answer:

The protection of internal environment from the harms of fluctuations in external environment is termed as homeostasis.

Explanation:

Homeostasis is the central requirement in the maintenance of an organism, which compels the adaptations in the constant changing condition and contribute in evolutionary process.

Why is a balanced equation necessary to solve any stoichiometry problem?
Masja [62]
 Basically; because a balanced equation will show how many molecules of one compound will react with how many molecules of another. This can be stated as the number of moles of one compound that will react with a given number of moles of another. You need to know the number of moles; so that you can translate the number of grams of one compound into moles; and then you can convert the number of moles of another into grams. eg: hydrogen combining with oxygen to produce water H2 + O2 = H2O Balanced equation: 2H2 + O2 = 2H2O Two moles of hydrogen react with one mole of oxygen If we have 8 grams of oxygen Molecular mass O2 = 32 (ie, 2x16) 8/32 = 1/4 mole O2 therefore, if 2 moles of hydrogen combine with one mole oxygen; 1/4x2 moles H2 combine with 1/4 mole O2 1/4X2 = 1/2 mole H2 Molecular mass H2 = 2.016 1/2 mole = 1.008g Therefore 1.008 g H2 reacts with 8 grams O2

The formula for density is the mass of an object divided by its volume. In equation form, that's d = m/v , where d is the density, m is the mass and v is the volume of the object. The standard units are kg/m³.

prisoha [69]
ABSTRACT This module, one of 13 NYSCATE modules, features the integration of mathematics, science, and technology (MST) through an emphasis on design in the context of solutions and dilutions. Groups of students design, construct, and test a kit for measuring iron concentration that is to be used in Third World countries. The kit includes directions (standard operating procedure [SOP]), small-volume measuring devices, limited distilled water, and other materials. The procedure establishes a maximum percent error for the iron determinations.
