Answer:

solid

Explanation:

It is called an amorphous solid because it lacks the ordered molecular structure of true solids, and yet its irregular structure is too rigid for it to qualify as a liquid.

Answer:

Glass, however, is actually neither a liquid—supercooled or otherwise—nor a solid. It is an amorphous solid—a state somewhere between those two states of matter. And yet glass's liquidlike properties are not enough to explain the thicker-bottomed windows, because glass atoms move too slowly for changes to be visible.

finlep [7]

Answer:

Luiquid

Explanation:

The atoms in a liquid state of matter have a definite volume, eventhough they acquire the shape of the container that contains them, the volume will always be the same, while in a solid the shape and volume will remain constant, on the other hand for a gas, the substance will fill the container where it is, having different volumes.

After completing an experiment to determine gravimetrically the percentage of water in a hydrate, a student reported a value of
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

b) The dehydrated sample absorbed moisture after heating

Explanation:

a) Strong initial heating caused some of the hydrate sample to splatter out.

This will result in a higher percent of water than the real one, because you assume in the calculation that the splattered sample was only water (which in not true).

b) The dehydrated sample absorbed moisture after heating.

Usually inorganic salts may absorbed moisture from the atmosphere so this will explain the 13% difference between calculated water percent the real content of water in the hydrate.

c) The amount of the hydrate sample used was too small.

It will create some errors but they do not create a difference of 13% difference as stated in the problem.

d) The crucible was not heated to constant mass before use.

Here the error is small.

e) Excess heating caused the dehydrated sample to decompose.

Usually the inorganic compounds are stable in the temperature range of this kind of experiments. If you have an organic compound which retain water molecules you may decompose the sample forming volatile compounds which will leave crucible so the error will be quite high.

Answer:

sodium chloride—is NaCl.

Explanation:

Table salt is an ionic compound, which breaks into its component ions or dissociates in water. These ions are Na+ and Cl-. The sodium and chlorine atoms are present in equal amounts (1:1 ratio), arranged to form a cubic crystal lattice.
