Answer:

brittle

Explanation:

Option A is correct. Solid ionic crystals exist in crystal lattice with oppositely charged ions packed against each other in a repetitive manner. Mechanical stress causes similar charged ions to slide past each other generating a lot of repulsive force thus breaking the crystal making them brittle.  

Option B is incorrect as solid ionic crystals have high melting point. Covalent compounds have low melting point.  

Option C is incorrect. Solid ionic crystals are hard not soft this is because of the crystal lattice structure. Amorphous solids are soft.  

Option D is incorrect. Solid ionic crystals are poor conductors of electricity. They conduct electricity when molten (fused) or dissolved in water so that they can split into ions that can conduct electricity.

The size (radius) of an oxygen molecule is about 2.0 ×10−10m. Make a rough estimate of the pressure at which the finite volume o
belka [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

We can calculate the volume  of the oxygen molecule as the radius of oxygen molecule is given as 2×10⁻¹⁰m.

We know that volume=4/3×πr³

volume =4/3×π(2.0×10⁻¹⁰m)³

volume=33.40×10⁻³⁰m³

Volume of oxygen molecule=33.40×10⁻³⁰m³

we know the ideal gas equation as:

PV=nRT

k=R/Na

R=k×Na

PV=n×k×Na×T

n×Na=N

PV=Nkt

p is pressure of gas

v is volume  of gas

T is temperature of gas

N is numbetr of molecules

Na is avagadros number

k is boltzmann constant =1.38×10⁻²³J/K

R is real gas constant

So to calculate pressure using the  formula;

PV=NkT

P=NkT/V

Since there is only one molecule of oxygen so N=1

P=[1×1.38×10⁻²³J/K×300]/[33.40×10⁻³⁰m³

p=12.39×10⁷Pascal

What is the molarity of a solution in which 7.1 g of sodium sulfate is dissolved in enough water to make 100. mL of solution?
Sidana [21]

Answer:

0.50 M

Explanation:

Given data

  • Mass of sodium sulfate (solute): 7.1 g
  • Volume of solution: 100 mL

Step 1: Calculate the moles of the solute

The molar mass of sodium sulfate is 142.04 g/mol. The moles corresponding to 7.1 grams of sodium sulfate are:

7.1g \times \frac{1mol}{142.02g} = 0.050mol

Step 2: Convert the volume of solution to liters

We will use the relation 1 L = 1000 mL.

100mL \times \frac{1L}{1000mL} =0.100L

Step 3: Calculate the molarity of the solution

M = \frac{moles\ of\ solute }{liters\ of\ solution} = \frac{0.050mol}{0.100L} =0.50 M
