Water is different from other substances

Chemistry
2 answers:
Gnoma [55]3 years ago

Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

It is known that density is the amount of mass divided by volume.

When water is present in solid state that is, in the form of ice then its molecules arrange themselves in a rigid tetrahedral structure.

Due to this there will cage like spaces between the molecules of ice during the bonding. As a result, they occupy more volume and it is known that density is inversely proportional to volume.

Hence, ice has low density as compared to liquid state of water.

When water is present in liquid state, then its molecules are closer to each other and they are able to slide past each other. Hence, space between them is less therefore, lesser will be its volume.

As a result, liquid state of water will have more density.

Thus, we can conclude that water is different from other substances  because it is less dense as a solid than liquid.

It's more dense as a liquid than as a solid. That's why ice can float in water. The answer is B.

Yet a third pair of compounds of manganese and oxygen is 50.48% and 36.81% oxygen respectively. In what small whole number ratio
Mariulka [41]

Answer:

The number ratio is 4:7

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Compound 1 has 50.48 % oxygen

Compound 2 has 36.81 % oxygen

Molar mass oxygen = 16 g/mol

Molar mass manganese = 54.94 g/mol

Step 2: Calculate % manganes

Compound 1: 100 - 50.48 = 49.52 %

Compound 2: 100 - 36.81 = 63.19 %

Step 3: Calculate mass

Suppose mass of compounds = 100 grams

Compound 1:

 50.48 % O = 50.48 grams

 49.52 % Mn = 49.52 grams

Compound 2:

36.81 % O = 36.81 grams

63.19 % Mn = 63.19 grams

Step 4: Calculate moles

Compound 1

Moles O = 50.48 grams / 16.0 g/mol = 3.155 moles

Moles Mn = 49.52 grams / 54.94 g/mol = 0.9013 moles

Compound 2

Moles O = 36.81 grams / 16.0 g/mol = 2.301 moles

Moles Mn = 63.19 grams / 54.94 g/mol = 1.150 moles

Step 5: calculate mol ratio

We will divide by the smallest amount of moles

Compound 1

O: 3.155/0.9013 = 3.5

Mn: 0.9013 / 0.9013 = 1

Mn2O7

Compound 2

O: 2.301 / 1.150 = 2

Mn: 1.150 / 1.150 = 1

MnO2

The number ratio is 2:3.5 or 4:7

Chris noticed a high-pressure system in the weather forecast for Monday
Alchen [17]

Answer:

A. Clear and Sunny

Explanation:

The answer would be A. Clear and Sunny. A high pressure system occurs where the air mass above the Earth is denser than in surrounding areas, and therefore exerts a higher force or pressure. They usually happen with li9ght winds. Using process of elimination, it could not be D. Warm and Stormy, C. Cloudy and Rainy, or B. Cold and Stormy because all have wet climates.
