Answer:
B
Explanation:
Particles in a solid have fixed locations in a volume that does not change. Solids have a definite volume and shape because particles in a solid vibrate around fixed locations.
 
        
             
        
        
        
Answer: The ionization of pure water forms <u><em>hydroxide and hydronium ions.</em></u>
Explanation:
Ionization is a reaction in the pure water in which water breaks down into its constituting ions that hydronium ion and hydroxide ions.

One molecule of water looses its proton to form hydroxide ion and l=the lost protons get associated with another water molecule to form hydronium ion.
 
        
             
        
        
        
Reduction half reaction: Cu²⁺(aq) + 2e⁻ → Cu⁰(s).
Oxidation half reaction: NO₂⁻(aq) + H₂O(l) → NO₃⁻(aq) + 2H⁺(aq) + 2e⁻.  
Balanced chemical reaction: 
Cu²⁺(aq) + NO₂⁻(aq) + H₂O(l) → Cu(s) + NO₃⁻(aq) + 2H⁺(aq).
Copper is reduced from oxidation number +2 (Cu²⁺) to oxidation number 0 (Cu) and nitrogen is oxidized from oxidation number +3 (in NO₂⁻) to oxidation number +5 (in NO₃⁻).
 
        
                    
             
        
        
        
Answer:
11.45kcal/g
2.612 × 10³ kcal
Explanation:
When a compound burns (combustion) it produces carbon dioxide and water. The combustion of 2-methylheptane can be represented by the following balanced equation:
2 C₈H₁₈ + 25 O₂ ⇄ 16 CO₂ + 18 H₂O
It releases  1.306 × 10³ kcal every 1 mol of C₈H₁₈ that is burned.
<em>What is the heat of combustion for 2-methylheptane in kcal/gram?</em>
We know that the molar mass of C₈H₁₈ is 114.0g/mol. Then, using proportions:

<em>How much heat will be given off if molar quantities of 2-methylheptane react according to the following equation? 2 C₈H₁₈ + 25 O₂ ⇄ 16 CO₂ + 18 H₂O</em>
In this equation we have 2 moles of C₈H₁₈. So,
