Answer: Option (d) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

In solids, molecules are held together by strong intermolecular forces of attraction. As a result, they are unable to move from their initial position and can only vibrate at their mean position.

Hence, a solid has definite shape and volume. Solids cannot be compressed.

Whereas in plasma, molecules are hot ionized which include positively charged ions and negatively charged electrons. They collide much more rapidly with each other and are widely spreaded out.

Therefore, they occupy the volume of container in which they are placed. Plasma can be compressed.

Thus, we can conclude that substance X is a solid and substance Y is a plasma.

Enter an equation showing how this buffer neutralizes added aqueous acid (HI). Express your answer as a chemical equation. Ident
andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

H^++NH_3\rightleftharpoons NH_4^+

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, since the buffer is not given, we assume it is based off ammonia, it means the ammonia-ammonium buffer, whereas the ammonia is the weak base and the ammonium ion stands for the conjugate acid. In such a way, when adding HI to the solution, the base of the buffer, NH3, reacts with the former to promote the following chemical reaction:

H^++NH_3\rightleftharpoons NH_4^+

Because the HI is totally ionized in solution so the iodide ion becomes an spectator one.

Best regards!

B

When frequency increases, as does the energy, but wavelength decreases. It also works vise versa; if wavelength were to increase, its frequency and energy will decrease.

How many oxygen atoms are in 3.70 g of quartz?
Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

The formula of Quartz is SiO2. So, 1 mole of Quartz will have 2 moles of oxygen atoms, i.e. 2 x 6.022 x 10^23 atoms of oxygen. The molar mass of quartz is 60 g per mol. So, 60 g quartz means 1 mole quartz.
