Answer:

C) nonmetal

Explanation:

Given;

The sample is in liquid state and do not conduct electricity.

We have given four types of classification.So for first,

A) Ionic

Ionic compounds are found in solid state at room temperature and it conducts electricity when dissolved in water. Hence the sample could not be ionic.

B)Metal

Metals are found in solid state at room temperature  except mercury and it conducts electricity very well. Mercury also conducts electricity.So the sample is not a metal.

C)Nonmetal

Non metals are found in solid state  except bromine which is in liquid state  at room temperature and it does not conducts electricity.

Here the property of nonmetal matches with the sample, so the sample is a nonmetal and it could be Bromine.

D)Salt

Salt is an ionic compound  found in solid state at room temperature and it conducts electricity when dissolved in water. Hence the sample could not be salt.

How an ionic compound made up of charged particles can be electrically neutral
finlep [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Ionic compounds are electrically neutral because the charges of the cations and anions that make up the compound cancel each other out. In the case of salt for example, sodium has a charge of positive one, and chloride has a charge of negative one. Together, they neutralize the compound.

1. Be able to convert atm’s to kPa’s. (how?)
Whitepunk [10]
1.) 0.875atm x 760.0 mmHg/atm
2.)    8I

3.) The warmer the molecules are the faster they move like boiling water the gases are coming out of the water
4.)no clue
5.) A {solution} is always transparent, light passes through with no scattering from solute particles which are the molecule in size. The solution is homogeneous and does not settle out. A solution cannot be filtered but can be separated using the process of distillation.

A {suspension} is cloudy and heterogeneous. The particles are larger than 10,000 Angstroms which allows them to be filtered. If a suspension is allowed to stand the particles will separate out.

<span>A {colloid} is intermediate between a solution and a suspension. While a suspension will separate out a colloid will not. Colloids can be distinguished from solutions using the Tyndall effect. Light passing through a colloidal dispersion, such as smoky or foggy air, will be reflected by the larger particles and the light beam will be visible. A hydrocolloid can simply be defined as a substance that forms a gel when it comes in contact with water. Such substances include both polysaccharides and proteins.
6.)</span><span>The random movement of microscopic particles suspended in a liquid or gas, caused by collisions with molecules of the surrounding medium. Also called Brownian motion, molecular movement, pedesis.

True or false: nitrogen gas behaves more like an ideal gas as the temperature increases
navik [9.2K]

Is true. Nitrogen gas behaves more like an ideal gas as the temperature increases. Under normal conditions such as normal pressure and temperature conditions , most real gases behave qualitatively as an ideal gas. Many gases such as air , nitrogen , oxygen ,hydrogen , noble gases , and some heavy gases such as carbon dioxide can be treated as ideal gases within a reasonable tolerance. Generally, the removal of ideal gas conditions tends to be lower at higher temperatures and lower density (that is at lower pressure ), since the work made by the intermolecular forces is less important compared to the kinetic energy<span> of the particles, and the size of the molecules is less important compared to the empty space between them. </span><span>The ideal gas model tends to fail at lower temperatures or at high pressures, when intermolecular forces and intermolecular size are important.</span>
