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.

A solution of sodium hydroxide (NaOH) was standardized against potassium hydrogen phthalate (KHP). A known mass of KHP was titra
Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

See explanation below

Explanation:

In order to calculate this, we need to use the following expression to get the concentration of the base:

MaVa = MbVb (1)

We already know the volume of NaOH used which is 13.4473 mL. We do not have the concentration of KHP, but we can use the moles. We have the mass of KHP which is 0.5053 g and the molecular formula. Let's calculate the molecular mass of KHP:

Atomic weights of the elements to be used:

K = 39.0983 g/mol;  H = 1.0078 g/mol;  C = 12.0107 g/mol;  O = 15.999 g/mol

MM KHP = (1.0078*5) + (39.0983) + (8*12.0107) + (4*15.999) = 204.2189 g/mol

Now, let's calculate the mole of KHP:

moles = 0.5053 / 204.2189 = 0.00247 moles

With the moles, we also know that:

n = M*V (2)

Replacing in (1):

n = MbVb

Now, solving for Mb:

Mb = n/Vb  (3)

Finally, replacing the data:

Mb = 0.00247 / (13.4473/1000)

Mb = 0.184 M

This would be the concentration of NaOH
