Why can’t liquids change volume but gases can

Chemistry
1 answer:
natta225 [31]3 years ago
4 0

Explanation:

Liquids cannot change volume but gases can because they have a fixed shape like solids.

Liquids have strong intermolecular forces binding their molecules together resulting is fixed ordering.

  • Gases are randomized with their molecules haphazardly arranged.
  • This allows them to expand spontaneously on their own.
  • Molecules of liquids are more tightly packed compared to gases.
  • In a liquid, the molecules have a less random pattern of motion and can only slide past one another.
  • In a gas, the molecules are in continuous random, straight line motion.

Which of the following molecules or ions is polar? (20 POINTS)
inessss [21]

Answer:

All of these three are polar molecules or ions

Explanation:

1) CO3 ^2-

It is a polar ion because it consists of one Oxygen atom and three carbon atoms so there is a substantial electroegativity difference between carbon and Oxygen due to which shared electrons are attracted more towards Oxygen creating partial negative charge on it and less towards carbon creating a partial positive charge on it, which makes the overall ion polar.

2) HCN

HCN is a polar molecule because there is substantial electronegativity difference between Carbon and Hydrogen as well as between Carbon and Nitrogen. Due to this negative charge is induced over Nitrogen because electronegativity of Nitrogen is 3.0 and positive charge on Carbon because its electronegativity is 2.5. The overall molecule is polar.

3) NO3^-1

Nitrate ion is also a polar molecule because there are three atoms of Oxygen and one atom of Nitrogen. There is substantial electronegativity difference between oxygen (3.44) and nitrogen (3.0) due to which partial positive charge is created on Nitrogen and partial negative charge created over three Oxygen atoms. The overall molecule is polar.

Hope it helps!

When a strontium atom loses two electrons, it becomes a(n) _____ with a charge of _____?
Iteru [2.4K]
<span>When a strontium atom loses two electrons, it becomes a(n) cation with a charge of 2+.
when any neutral atom loses an electron it becomes cation that is positively charged ions and an ion gets the charge according to the number of electrons loses. And if an atom gains an electron it becomes anion that is negatively charged ions.</span>
