<span>Alpha particles cannot penetrate deeply into solids because they <u>have low velocity.
</u>They don't move fast enough to be able to penetrate deeply into solids, which is why the third option is the correct one.<u>

Answer: Option (c) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A particle that contains two protons and two neutrons bounded together is known as an alpha particle.

It is known that an alpha particle has a large mass and due to this they travel very slowly. As a result, they tend to have low velocity.

Hence, we can conclude that alpha particles cannot penetrate deeply into solids because they have low velocity.

Cutting a piece of paper in half proves that solids have no definite shape.<br><br> True or False?
erma4kov [3.2K]
False. Solids have a definite shape and volume. Cutting a paper (solid) in half will alter the shape of the original solid and give it a new shape and volume instead. A solid will always have a definite shape. If not, it's not a solid.

Co (5.00 g) and co2 (5.00 g) were placed in a 750.0 ml container at 50.0°c. the total pressure in the container was __________ a
masya89 [10]

The molar mass of CO is 28 g/mol while that of CO2 is 44 g/mol. Let us calculate the total moles present in the container.

total moles = [5g / (28 g/mol)] + [5g / (44 g/mol)]

total moles = 0.2922 mol

 

Using PV = nRT, we get the pressure:

P = nRT / V

P = (0.2922 mol * 0.0821 L atm/mol K * 323.15 K) / 0.75 L

<span>P = 10.34 atm</span>
