Intermolecular distance is the distance between the particles that make up matter. The graph below compares the intermolecular d

istances in two substances. One substance is gas and the other is a liquid. A bar graph is shown with the title Intermolecular Distance. The y axis title is Distance. The x axis title is Substance. There are two bars on the x axis. One is labeled X and the other is labeled Y. The bar for X is higher than the bar for Y. Which statement best describes the two substances?

Explanation:

In gases, the molecules are held together by weak Vander waal forces. Due to this they have more kinetic energy and hence, more number of collisions take place between the molecules of a gas.

Therefore, they tend to diffuse at a faster rate and distance traveled by them is more as compared to the distance traveled by the molecules of a liquid.

On the other hand in liquids, the molecules are held by more strong intermolecular forces of attraction as compared to gases but not strong enough as they are in solids. Due to this molecules of a liquid are able to slide past each other. Hence, they have medium kinetic energy.

Therefore, less number of collisions take place between molecules of a liquid as compared to gases.

Thus, we can conclude that particles collide in gas so, substance X is a gas.

X is the gas and Y is the liquid. Intermolecular distances are farther apart in gases than in liquids.

How many moles are in 2.5L of 1.75 M Na2CO3
mixas84 [53]

Answer: There are 4.375 moles in 2.5 L of 1.75 M Na_2CO_3

Explanation:

To calculate the number of moles for given molarity, we use the equation:

\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{Moles of solute}}{\text{Volume of solution (in L)}}      

Molarity of solution = 1.75 M

Volume of solution = 2.5 L  

Putting values in equation , we get:

1.75M=\frac{\text{Moles of} Na_2CO_3}{2.5L}\\\\\text{Moles of }Na_2CO_3=1.75mol/L\times 2.5L=4.375mol

Predict the reactivity of silicon in water relative to that of sodium, magnesium, and aluminium. Explain your answer. How does t
Inessa [10]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

The reactivity of metals has a lot to do with their position in the electrochemical series. However, it is also known that metallic character decreases across the period. This implies that as we move from left to right along the periodic table. Sodium, magnesium, aluminum and silicon continues to decrease in metallic character. As a matter of fact, silicon is a metalloid and not a pure metal.

Sodium reacts with cold water to give a vigorous reaction,magnesium and aluminium reacts with steam at red heat.

Silicon does not react with water, even as steam, under normal conditions.

These are two questions and two answers

Question 1.

Answer:

  • <u>7.33 × 10 ⁻³ c</u>

Explanation:

<u>1) Data:</u>

a) m = 9.11 × 10⁻³¹ kg

b) λ =  3.31 × 10⁻¹⁰ m

c) c = 3.00 10⁸ m/s

d) s = ?

<u>2) Formula:</u>

The wavelength (λ), the speed (s), and the mass (m) of the particles are reltated by the Einstein-Planck's equation:

  • λ = h / (m.s)

  • h is Planck's constant: h= 6.626×10⁻³⁴J.s

<u>3) Solution:</u>

Solve for s:

  • s = h / (m.λ)

Substitute:

  • s = 6.626×10⁻³⁴J.s / ( 9.11 × 10⁻³¹ kg ×  3.31 × 10⁻¹⁰ m) = 2.20 × 10 ⁶ m/s

To express the speed relative to the speed of light, divide by c =  3.00 10⁸ m/s

  • s =  2.20 × 10 ⁶ m/s / 3.00 10⁸ m/s = 7.33 × 10 ⁻³

Answer: s = 7.33 × 10 ⁻³ c

Question 2.

Answer:

  • 2.06 × 10 ⁻³⁴ m.

Explanation:

<u>1) Data:</u>

a) m = 45.9 g (0.0459 kg)

b) s = 70.0 m/s

b) λ =  ?

<u>2) Formula:</u>

Macroscopic matter follows the same Einstein-Planck's equation, but the wavelength is so small that cannot be detected:

  • λ = h / (m.s)

  • h is Planck's constant: h= 6.626×10⁻³⁴J.s

<u>3) Solution:</u>

  • λ = h / (m.s)

Substitute:

  • λ =  6.626×10⁻³⁴J.s / ( 0.0459 kg ×  70.0 m/s) = 2.06 × 10 ⁻³⁴ m

As you see, that is tiny number and explains why the wave nature of the golf ball is undetectable.

Answer: 2.06 × 10 ⁻³⁴ m.
