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.

You are a chemist working in your laboratory. In your storage closet you have a cabinet that holds only samples of pure elements
Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

Mercury

Explanation:

While it is true that most metals are solid at room temperature, mercury is liquid at room temperature hence mercury is often designated as the 'liquid metal'.

Thus, if i find a bottle on the shelf that has no solid in it, only liquid and i know that only pure metals are stored in that area of the laboratory, then i will quickly relabel it as mercury.

125 ml of nitrogen gas is collected at 70.0 degrees Celsius. The pressure
dybincka [34]

Answer: Volume of the gas at STP is 22.53 L.

Explanation:

Given : Volume = 125 mL   (as 1 mL = 0.001 L) = 0.125 L

Temperature = 70^{o}C = (70 + 273) K = 343 K

Pressure = 125 kPa = 125 kPa \times \frac{0.01 atm}{1 kPa} = 1.25 atm

According to the ideal gas equation, the volume of given nitrogen gas is calculated as follows.

PV = nRT

where,

P = pressure

V = volume

n = number of moles

R = gas constant = 0.0821 L atm/mol K

T = temperature

Substitute the values into above formula as follows.

1.25 atm \times V = 1 mol \times 0.0821 L atm/mol K \times 343 K\\V = \frac{1 mol \times 0.0821 L atm/mol K \times 343 K}{1.25 atm}\\= \frac{28.1603}{1.25} L\\= 22.53 L

Hence, volume of the gas at STP is 22.53 L.

A 25.0-mL sample containing Cu2+ gave an instrument signal of 25.2 units (corrected for a blank). When exactly 0.500 mL of 0.027
irga5000 [103]

Answer:

The molar concentration of Cu²⁺ in the initial solution is 6.964x10⁻⁴ M.

Explanation:

The first step to solving this problem is calculating the number of moles of Cu(NO₃)₂ added to the solution:

C = \frac{n}{V} \\0.0275 = \frac{n}{0.0005} \\

n = 1.375x10⁻⁵ mol

The second step is relating the number of moles to the signal. We know the the n calculated before is equivalent to a signal increase of 19.9 units (45.1-25.2):

1.375x10⁻⁵ mol _________ 19.9 units

        x              _________  25.2 units

x = 1.741x10⁻⁵mol

Finally, we can calculate the Cu²⁺ concentration :

C = 1.741x10⁻⁵mol / 0.025 L

C = 6.964x10⁻⁴ M
