What state of matter is glass? Why does this seem odd?

Chemistry

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.

How do you write a balanced equation for the combustion<br> ofbenzene?
forsale [732]

Answer: The balanced chemical equation for the combustion of benzene is:

2C_6H_6+15O_2\rightarrow 12CO_2+6H_2O

Explanation:

Combustion reactions : It is defined as the reactions in which a hydrocarbon reacts with oxygen gas to produce carbon dioxide and water as a product.

Balanced chemical reaction : It is defined as the reaction in which the number of atoms of individual elements present on reactant side must be equal to the product side.

The balanced chemical equation for the combustion of benzene will be:

2C_6H_6+15O_2\rightarrow 12CO_2+6H_2O

By Stoichiometry of the reaction we can say that,

2 mole of benzene reacts with 15 moles of oxygen gas to produce 12 moles of carbon dioxide and 6 moles of water molecule.

Based on the information below, both Polaris and Sirius are much hotter than the Sun. However, on Earth, we feel the heat from t
azamat

Answer:

  D.  Polaris and Sirius are farther away than the Sun.

Explanation:

The radiation intercepted by Earth is inversely proportional to the square of the distance from the source. Polaris and Sirius are substantially farther away than the sun.

Polaris, for example, is about 27 million times farther away, so even though it is 4000 times brighter, we receive on the order of 5×10^-12 as much radiation from that star as from the sun.

We feel less heat from stars other than the Sun because they are farther away.

(50 POINTS!)
aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

Can I get my 50 points now?

Explanation:

The helium is formed during the natural radioactive decay of elements such as uranium and thorium. These heavy elements were formed before the earth but they are not stable and very slowly, they decay. One mode of decay for uranium is to emit an alpha-particle.

Cuales son los cambios que siempre envuelven cambios en la compocision de la sustancia?
QveST [7]

I already answered this question in Spanish language. Now I answer in English.


Answer: the chemical changes.


Explanation:


We understand by composition of a substance to the proportion (ratio or percentage) of each element (type of atoms) that makes up the same, as well as the way in which these elements are linked (chemical bonds).


A chemical change is a process, also called a chemical reaction, in which one or more substances are converted into different substances.


The resulting substances are different because their composition is different, since some chemical bonds have been broken and others have been formed, giving rise to a new structure. The chemical formula of each compound product of the chemical change will present a different combination of atoms, in ratio or structure.
