Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

In solids, atoms are held together because of strong intermolecular forces of attraction between them.

As a result, solids have a definite shape and volume. Hence, its molecules are not able to slide past each other.

Whereas in liquids, molecules are together by less strong forces as compared to solids. Therefore, liquids do not have fixed shape and volume. They occupy the shape of a container in which they are kept together.

Therefore, molecules of a liquid are able to slide past each other.

In gases, molecules are held by weak Vander waal forces. So, they collide rapidly and occupy the volume of container and not the shape. Similarly, plasma is a hot ionized gas which consists of positive ions and negative electrons. Like gases, plasma also occupies the volume of a container.

Thus, we can conclude that liquid is the matter which can fill a container from top to bottom.

Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

In liquids, the molecules are held by less strong intermolecular forces of attraction as compared to solids.

Hence, liquids do not have a fixed shape but they have a fixed volume. And, liquids have the ability to occupy the shape of any container in which they are placed.

Also, molecules of a liquid are able to slide past each other because they have medium kinetic energy.

Thus, we can conclude that liquid phase of matter has particles that are held together but can flow past each other and takes the shape of a container, filling it from the bottom up.

Nataly_w [17]

You would use the formula for Boyle's Law:

(P1) (V1) = (P2) (V2)

(101.5) (2.0) = (P2?) (.75)

*P2 = 270kPa (You're allowed 2 significant figures)

P = Pressure

V = Volume

Consider the second-order reaction:
kirza4 [7]

Answer:

Initial concentration of HI is 5 mol/L.

The concentration of HI after 4.53\times 10^{10} s is 0.00345 mol/L.

Explanation:

2HI(g)\rightarrow H_2(g)+I_2(g)


Rate Law: k[HI]^2


Rate constant of the reaction = k = 6.4\times 10^{-9} L/mol s

Order of the reaction = 2

Initial rate of reaction = R=1.6\times 10^{-7} Mol/L s

Initial concentration of HI =[A_o]

1.6\times 10^{-7} mol/L s=(6.4\times 10^{-9} L/mol s)[HI]^2

[A_o]=5 mol/L

Final concentration of HI after t = [A]

t = 4.53\times 10^{10} s

Integrated rate law for second order kinetics is given by:

\frac{1}{[A]}=kt+\frac{1}{[A_o]}

\frac{1}{[A]}=6.4\times 10^{-9} L/mol s\times 4.53\times 10^{10} s+\frac{1}{[5 mol/L]}

[A]=0.00345 mol/L

The concentration of HI after 4.53\times 10^{10} s is 0.00345 mol/L.

What is the frequency of a wave with a wavelength of 6.40x10^4 meters?
yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

frequency = 0.47×10⁴ Hz

Explanation:

Given data:

Wavelength of wave = 6.4× 10⁴ m

Frequency of wave = ?

Solution:

Formula:

Speed of wave = wavelength × frequency

Speed of wave = 3 × 10⁸ m/s

Now we will put the values in formula.

3 × 10⁸ m/s = 6.4× 10⁴ m × frequency

frequency = 3 × 10⁸ m/s / 6.4× 10⁴ m

frequency = 0.47×10⁴ /s

s⁻¹ = Hz

frequency = 0.47×10⁴ Hz

Thus the wave with wavelength of 6.4× 10⁴ m have 0.47×10⁴ Hz frequency.
