Dmitriy789 [7]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

a. In a mineral the constituent atoms are bonded in a regular, repetitive, internal structure; a rock is a lithified or consolidated aggregate of different mineral grains.

Explanation:

In the internal structure of a mineral the atoms are arranged in an orderly manner, forming shapes that are repeated throughout the structure.

Rocks are a mixture of other materials consolidated in one, which include minerals.

So the minerals have a defined internal structure with atoms in a regular and repeated configuration, while a rock, being a consolidated aggregate, combination of other materials including minerals, does not have a structure that defined

Which substance, when dissolved in water, forms a solution that conducts an electric current?
Margarita [4]
Missing question: 
<span>(1) C2H5OH (3) C12H22O11
(2) C6H12O6 (4) CH3COOH.

Answer is: 4) CH</span>₃COOH, acetic acid.
In water, acetic acid dissociates on ions, so it can conduct electricity:
CH₃COOH(aq) ⇄ CH₃COO⁻(aq) + H⁺(aq).
When we put electrodes (cathode and anode) in acetic acid solution, positive and negative ions migrate to electrodes.<span>
Negative acetate ions go to positive electrode and gives electrons to electrode.
<span>Positive hydrogen ions go to negative electrode and gain electrons.</span></span>
