Liquids have free and fast moving particles. Liquids do not take a specific shape unless they are enclosed such as in a bottle. Anyway, since they are free flowing when they freeze, their movement becomes very slow. Eventually the particles will not have room to move as they used to and will be held in one place. The particles are still moving but they are only shaking or vibrating in the same place. You can't even tell this movement is happening, and that is what happens when liquid freezes.

Gasoline is predominantly octane, C8H18.  Something like soap would be a great homogenizer.  Soap is composed of a long hydrocarbon chain with a tiny, highly polar tip on one end.  Usually, the soap is the anion of a salt, NaX.  This allows the polar end of the soap to stick to water, while the nonpolar end sticks to the oil.

\frac{kg*m*m}{m^3*s*\mu}=1=\frac{kg}{m*s*\mu}

\mu=\frac{kg}{m*s}

The theoretical yield of a reaction is the amount of product obtained if the limiting reactant is completely converted to produc
Elis [28]

Answer: 9.9 grams

Explanation:

To calculate the moles, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text {Molar mass}}

a) moles of H_2

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{8.150g}{2g/mol}=4.08moles

b) moles of C_2H_4

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{9.330g}{28g/mol}=0.33moles

H_2(g)+C_2H_4(g)\rightarrow C_2H_6(g)

According to stoichiometry :

1 mole of C_2H_4 combine with 1 mole of H_2

Thus 0.33 mole of C_2H_4 will combine with =\frac{1}{1}\times 0.33=0.33 mole of H_2

Thus C_2H_4 is the limiting reagent as it limits the formation of product.

As 1 mole of C_2H_4 give =  1 mole of C_2H_6

Thus 0.33 moles of C_2H_4 give =\frac{1}{1}\times 0.33=0.33moles  of C_2H_6

Mass of C_2H_6=moles\times {\text {Molar mass}}=0.33moles\times 30g/mol=9.9g

Thus theoretical yield (g) of C_2H_6 produced by the reaction is 9.9 grams

When we say an object is hot, we are describing its velocity thermal energy wavelength chemical energy?
boyakko [2]
I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is the second option. When we say an object is hot, we are describing its thermal energy. It<span> is the </span>energy<span> that comes from heat. This heat is generated by the movement of tiny particles within an object. </span> Hope this answers the question.
