Why does a liquid take the shape but not the volume of its container

Chemistry
1 answer:
Ber [7]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

The attraction between the particles in a liquid keeps the volume of the liquid constant. The movement of the particles causes the liquid to be variable in shape. Liquids will flow and fill the lowest portion of a container, taking on the shape of the container but not changing in volume.

1.The use of land is determined both by physical factors such as topography, climate, soil types as well as human factors such as population density, technological capability and culture and traditions etc.
2. Common property resources (environmental) are natural resources owned and managed collectively by a community or society rather than by individuals.
3.


Wind erosion is a natural process that moves soil from one location to another by wind power. ... Wind erosion can be caused by a light wind that rolls soil particles along the surface through to a strong wind that lifts a large volume of soil particles into the air to create dust storms.
4. Terrace cultivation or terrace agriculture method of growing crops on sides of hills or mountains by planting on graduated terraces built into the slope. Though labour-intensive, the method has been employed effectively to maximize arable land area in variable terrains and to reduce soil erosion and water loss.

Answer:

Limestone caves are formed when acid rain occurs.

Explanation:

When chalk pieces which is made of calcium carbonate react with acetic acid, it produces carbon dioxide, calcium acetate, and water. When calcium carbonate react with Carbonated Water produces calcium bicarbonate. Limestone cave forms when the dissolution of limestone occur when rainwater which is acidic due to the addition of carbondioxide in the air react with limestone. This dissolution removes the lime from the rock and caves are formed.

Can Iron replace Hydrogen in the following reaction?: Fe(s) + HCl(aq) ---> H2(g) + FeCl2(aq)
Elenna [48]
It can because Iron is more reactive than Hydrogen and a more reactive metal always replaces a less reactive one in a single replacement reaction

Base your answer on the information below. The hydrocarbon 2-methylpropane reacts with iodine as represented by the balanced equ
Kryger [21]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

The boiling point of a substance is affected by the nature of bonding in the molecule as well as the nature of intermolecular forces between molecules of the substance.

2-methylpropane has only pure covalent and nonpolar C-C and C-H bonds. As a result of this, the molecule is nonpolar and the only intermolecular forces present are weak dispersion forces. Therefore, 2-methylpropane has a very low boiling point.

As for 2-iodo-2-methylpropane, there is a polar C-I bond. This now implies that the intermolecular forces present are both dispersion forces and dipole interaction. As a result of the presence of stronger dipole interaction between 2-iodo-2-methylpropane molecules, the compound has a higher boiling point than  2-methylpropane.
