Solids have a definite shape and volume. They are always the same shape no matter what they are contained in; their volume is also the same because they don't change unless you add or take away from it.
____________________________________________________________
Liquids have an indefinite shape but definite volume. They expand to fill out the space they are contained in, but their volume doesn't change unless you take out or add more of the liquid.
Gases have an indefinite shape and volume. Gases expand to fill out the space they are in and also don't have a clear shape because they are not always in one form.
D. Two electrons in its first energy level; eight electrons in its second energy level; six valence electrons in its outermost energy level.
Please correct me if I'm wrong!! :)
Answer:
The volume increases because the temperature increases and is 2.98L
Explanation:
Charles's law states that the volume of a gas is directely proportional to its temperature. That means if a gas is heated, its volume will increase and vice versa. The equation is:
V₁/T₁ = V₂/T₂
<em>Where V is volume and T is absolute temperature of 1, initial state, and 2, final state of the gas.</em>
In the problem, the gas is heated, from 53.00°C (53.00 + 273.15 = 326.15K) to 139.00°C (139.00 + 273.15 = 412.15K).
Replacing in the Charles's law equation:
2.36L / 326.15K= V₂/412.15K
<h3>2.98L = V₂</h3>
