Which best describes why a liquid needs a container when a solid does not?

Chemistry
2 answers:
Naya [18.7K]3 years ago

Answer:

When an element or substance is in a liquid state, the particles are joined by less attractive forces than in solids, for this reason the particles of a liquid can move freely.For this reason the particles of a liquid can move freely and need a recipient that contains them .

Liquids have a defined volume but with a variable shape, this means that liquids adopt the shape of the container but always occupy the same space

For example, if we have 4 L of water in a round container, its shape is round and now we put the water in a square container, its shape is now square but its volume is still 4 L (it continues to occupy the same space)

liquid is fluid in motion, needing to be contained. while a solid state of matter is as such and won't run down the cabinet

1. 5 ethyl, 2 methyl octane
2. 1 ethyl, 2 methyl cyclopentane
3. 3,3,5,5- tetrafluoro heptane
4. 3,4-dimethyl hexene
5. 3,4-dimethyl cyclobutene
6. 3,5 diisopropyl cyclohexene
7. 3,3,4 trimethyl pentyne
8. 2,6 dibromo phenol

keep in mind that between 4-7, there could be #1 in front of the main name. for example with #4: 3,4-dimethyl-1- hexene. this honestly depends on the professor how he/she likes it. It is not necessary because if the number is not specified, it is assumed is #1

Why does the moon and the earth have the same mass
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

Moon rocks contain few volatile substances (e.g. water), which implies extra baking of the lunar surface relative to that of Earth. The relative abundance of oxygen isotopes on Earth and on the Moon are identical, which suggests that the Earth and Moon formed at the same distance from the Sun.

What is the difference in concentration between a pH of 7 and 12?
Ratling [72]

Answer:

The pH of a solution is simply a measure of the concentration of hydrogen ions,  

H

+

, which you'll often see referred to as hydronium cations,  

H

3

O

+

.

More specifically, the pH of the solution is calculated using the negative log base  

10

of the concentration of the hydronium cations.

Now, we use the negative log base  

10

because the concentration of hydronium cations is usually significantly smaller than

.

As you know, every increase in the value of a log function corresponds to one order of magnitude.

Which of the following molecules is nonpolar?
Rudik [331]

Answer:

1. BF3 This is a trigonal planar molecule; the electron density is drawn into a cloud that circles the Boron, this is made nonpolar by the geometrically equivalent structure of the surrounding electronegative Fluorines.

2. H2O The 2 lone pairs of e- of Oxygen makes the O partially negative, the H’s, partially positive. Polar.

3. NF3 Lone pair on Nitrogen overwhelmed by the 3 incredibly electronegative Fluorines. Polar

4. CH3Br The “Soft Ion” of Bromine is negative; it is electronegative. Polar.

5. SO2 the lone pairs of Oxygen, at approximately 119°-120° angles to one another will form a reasonance structure; there will be more lone pairs about the Oxygen than the Sulfur; the Sulfur will be partially positive compared to the oxygens. Polar.

Name: _________________ Temperature o fwater_25_degreecent.YOU MUST SHOW ALL CALCULATIONS TO RECEIVE CREDIT FOR THEM! DATA ANALY
Anton [14]

Answer:

1. 0.02 M

2. 0.01 M

3. 4×10⁻⁶

Explanation:

We know that V₁S₁ = V₂S₂

1.

Concentration of HCl = 0.05 M

end point comes at = 10 ml

So, concentration of OH⁻(aq) = [OH⁻(aq)] ⇒ (0.05 × 10) ÷ 25 ⇒ 0.02 M

2.

2mol of OH⁻(aq) ≡ 1 mole of Ca²⁺(aq)

[Ca²⁺] = 0.02 ÷ 2 = 0.01 M

3.

K_{sp} = [Ca²⁺(aq)] [OH⁻(aq)]²

Ca(OH)₂ (aq) ⇄ Ca²⁺ (aq) + 2OH⁻ (aq)

K_{sp} = [0.01 × (0.02)²] = 4×10⁻⁶

4.

If reaction is exothermic which means heat energy will get evolved as a result temperature of the reaction media will get increased during the course of the reaction. If temperature is externally increased, the reaction will go backward to accumulate extra heat energy.

5.

K_{sp} value describes the solubility of a particular ionic compound. The higher the K_{sp} value, the higher the Solubility will be.

6.

This may be due to uncommon ion effect. The process of other ions (K⁺ or Na⁺) may increase the solubility
