Explanation:

Molecules present in a liquid state are less tightly held together as compared to solid state. As molecules in a liquid have less strong intermolecular forces of attraction.

As a result, liquid molecules have kinetic energy and they are able to slide past each other. Hence, in a liquid state every substance is able to occupy the shape and size of the container in which it is placed.

Whereas in a solid state, particles are held together by strong intermolecular forces of attraction. So, they have definite shape and volume.

In gaseous state, molecules are far away from each other. And, they can be completely compressed.

Liquids can be partially compressed but solids cannot be compressed.

Therefore, we can conclude that liquid is the state of matter which has enough kinetic energy to partially overcome the intermolecular attraction between the particles, allowing the particles to flow and take the shape and volume of whatever container the sample is in.

The answer is; liquid phase

The characteristics described in the question are those of a liquid. The forces between liquid particles are weaker than the forces between solid particles because the particles are further apart. The particles are not held in a  fixed position in the structure hence it can flow and take the shape of the container in which it is in.

The uncertainty principle is one of the most famous (and probably misunderstood) ideas in physics. It tells us that there is a fuzziness in nature, a fundamental limit to what we can know about the behaviour of quantum particles and, therefore, the smallest scales of nature. Of these scales, the most we can hope for is to calculate probabilities for where things are and how they will behave. Unlike Isaac Newton's clockwork universe, where everything follows clear-cut laws on how to move and prediction is easy if you know the starting conditions, the uncertainty principle enshrines a level of fuzziness into quantum theory.

How many moles are present in 4.7 liters of argon gas as STP
algol [13]
Answer:

0.21mol Ar (g)

Explanation:

To convert from litres to moles at STP we must divide the amount of litres by 22.4.

4.7 / 22.4 = 0.21mol Ar (g)
