Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

In a solid, molecules are held together by strong intermolecular forces of attraction. As a result, they are unable to move from their initial place but they can vibrate at their mean position.  

Hence, in solid substances the molecules have low kinetic energy.

Whereas in liquids, the molecules are held by less strong intermolecular forces of attraction as compared to solids. Due to which they are able to slide past each other. Hence, they have high kinetic energy as compared to molecules of a solid.

Therefore, as sample D is retaining its shape so, it is a solid.

Thus, we can conclude that the statement D is a solid because it retains its shape correctly describes the state of matter of one of the samples.

El símbolo del ion que contiene 24 protones, 28 neutrones y 21 electrones es: (Marque con X la respuesta correcta)
mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

d) Cr⁺³

Explanation:

Consideremos un ion que contiene 24 protones, 28 neutrones y 21 electrones.

Para encontrar el simbolo del elemento, tenemos que considerar el número atómico (Z) que es igual al número de protones. Con esta información, buscamos en la tabla periódica el  elemento con Z=24 es el Cromo.

La carga total está dada por la diferencia entre protones y electrones. Los ´protones tienen carga +1 y los electrones carga -1. Luego, este ion tiene carga:

24 protones + 21 electrones = 24 . (1) + 21 . (-1) = +3

El simbolo del ion es Cr⁺³.

Two unknown molecular compounds were being studied. A solution containing 5.00 g of compound A in 100. g of water froze at a low
LenaWriter [7]

Answer:

Compound B has greater molar mass.

Explanation:

The depression in freezing point is given by ;

\Delta T_f=i\times k_f\times m..[1]

m=\frac{\text{Mass of solute}}{\text{Molar mass of solute}\times \text{Mass of solvent in kg}}

Where:

i = van't Hoff factor

k_f = Molal depression constant

m = molality of the solution

According to question , solution with 5.00 g of A in 100.0 grams of water froze at at lower temperature than solution with 5.00 g of B in 100.0 grams of water.

The depression in freezing point of solution with A solute: \Delta T_{f,A}

Molar mass of A = M_A

The depression in freezing point of solution with B solute: \Delta T_{f,B}

Molar mass of B = M_B

\Delta T_{f,A}>\Delta T_{f,B}

As we can see in [1] , that depression in freezing point is inversely related to molar mass of the solute.

\Delta T_f\propto \frac{1}{\text{Molar mass of solute}}

M_A

This means compound B has greater molar mass than compound A,

How many moles of S are in 35.4 g of (C3H5)2S?
alexandr402 [8]
<span>0.310 moles First, look up the atomic weights of the elements involved. Atomic weight carbon = 12.0107 Atomic weight hydrogen = 1.00794 Atomic weight sulfur = 32.065 Molar mass (C3H5)2S = 6 * 12.0107 + 10 * 1.00794 + 32.065 = 114.2086 g/mol Moles (C3H5)2S = 35.4 g / 114.2086 g/mol = 0.309959145 mol Since there's just one sulfur atom per (C3H5)2S molecule, the number of moles of sulfur will match the number of moles of (C3H5)2S which is 0.310 when rounded to 3 significant digits.</span>

When a substance is in the liquid state, how are the particles of that substance<br> behaving
iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

In liquids, particles are quite close together and move with random motion throughout the container. Particles move rapidly in all directions but collide with each other more frequently than in gases due to shorter distances between particles. With an increase in temperature, the particles move faster as they gain kinetic energy, resulting in increased collision rates and an increased rate of diffusion.
