Chemistry

Mariana [72]3 years ago

Answer:

Open spaces in water's solid structure makes its solid state less dense than its liquid state.

Explanation:

  • Water unlike other liquids is special. It contracts when cooled, down to a temperature of 4°C but thereafter begins to expand as it reaches 0°C and turns into ice.
  • This property is useful for the preservation of marine life in very cold temperatures. During winter, the surface water in water lakes and rivers starts cooling. Upon reaching the temperature of 4°C, the surface water descends to the bottom as it denser.
  • This help in the maintenance of temperature of the water at the bottom at 4°C. It is in this layer that marine life is sustained.

What is the symbol of a ion with a 22 protons, 34 neutrons, and 18 electrons
Dominik [7]
Well knowing the number of protons, you can find what the element is, which is Ti = titanium. Then to find the charge, simply subtract 22 and 18 which is +3.

Find the mass number by adding 22 and 34 = 56.

56. +3
Ti

22

This would be the correct notation in isotopic form.

all matter contains heat because it is the result of the movement of atoms, molecules, or ions in solids, liquids, and gases.

all matter also contains chemical energy. chemical energy is stored in the bonds of chemical compounds so atoms and molecules are held together by chemical energy

hope this helps :)
