Chemistry

Answer: Option (D) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Solids are the substances whose molecules are closely packed together due strong inter molecular forces between them. This causes the solid to have a fixed shape and volume.

Whereas density is mass divided by per unit volume.

Mathematically,         Density = \frac{mass}{volume}

Since, density is proportional to mass. So, more is the mass that is, more is the number of molecules held together by strong forces more will be its density.

Therefore, we can conclude that the statement solids are high in density and incompressible, best describes solids.

In my opinion I would pick D. 

Multiple answers could be chosen, just due to the fact that a solid is nothing more than just an object that cannot change it's physical shape into an object; just as water would. a solid can have a low density; such as paper, plastics, or even just a piece of wood. 

But think of a block of ice. You can break it, and crush it. It cannot be formed into any other shape. If you did break it, it only would make more ice fragments. And it's next phase is a liquid; if it were to be melted.

Korvikt [17]

Answer:

b. It should be dumped in a beaker labeled "waste copper" on one's bench during the experiment.

d. It should be disposed of in the bottle for waste copper ion when work is completed.

Explanation:

Solutions containing copper ion should never be disposed of by dumping them in a sink or in common trash cans, because this will cause pollution in rivers, lakes and seas, being a contaminating agent to both human beings and animals. They should be placed in appropriate compatible containers that can be hermetically sealed. The sealed containers must be labeled with the name and class of hazardous substance they contain and the date they were generated.

It never should be returned to the bottle containing the solution, since it can contaminate the solution of the bottle.

In the Solutions and Spectroscopy experiments there is always wastes.

I don’t know about 3 but I know that 4 is solid, 5 is you’ll feel the vibration first, 6 is you’ll see the lightning first because the speed of light is faster than the speed of sound and 7 is sound waves need a medium to travel and light waves don’t, sound waves are longitudinal and light waves are transverse, and sound waves are mechanical waves while light waves are electromagnetic waves
