Answer:

The water molecules slow down, stronger attractions form between them, and the molecules are pulled closer together.

Explanation:

In solids the packing of the particles is closer and tighter thus increasing the intermolecular attraction. This makes solids rigid with a definite shape, size and volume. On the other hand in liquids the packing of the particles is loose thus decreasing the intermolecular attraction. This makes liquids able to flow, and takes the shape and volume of the container in which they are placed.

an unknown molecule is found to consist of 24.2% carbon by mass, 4.0% hydrogen by mass and the remaining mass is due to chlorine

Paha777 [63]

Answer:

C3 H6 Cl 3

Explanation:

C -24.2%

H - 4.0%

Cl - (100-24.2 - 4.0)=73.8 %

We can take 100g of the substance, then we have

C -24.2 g

H - 4.0 g

Cl - 73.8 g

Find the moles of these elements

C -24.2 g/12.0 g/mol =2.0 mol

H - 4.0 g/1.0 g/mol = 4. 0 mol

Cl - 73.8 g/ 35.5 g/mol = 2.1 mol

Ratio of these elements gives simplest formula of the substance

C : H : Cl = 2 : 4 : 2 = 1 : 2 : 1

CH2Cl

Molar mass (CH2Cl) = 1*12.0 +2*1.0 + 1*35.5 = 49.5 g/mol

Real molar mass = 150 g/mol

real molar mass/ Molar mass (CH2Cl) = 150 /49.5=3

So, Real formula should be C3 H6 Cl 3.
