Answer: Option (D) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Metals are the species which have excess of electrons. Metals are placed from left side to more than middle side of the periodic table.

Some properties of metals are as follows.

  • Metals are good conductors of heat and electricity.
  • They are malleable and ductile i.e, they can be drawn into thin sheets and wires.
  • They are lustrous in appearance.
  • Metals generally have high melting point.

Thus, we can conclude that out of the given options, characteristic they are malleable is typical of metals.

Read the selection from the section "Molecules In Motion." The molecules in the hot soup are traveling faster overall than they
Hoochie [10]

Answer: The author used the word "conversely" because the first statement he made is in CONTRAST to the second statement he made.

Explanation:

Matter is made up of atoms or molecules that are in constant motion. The motion of these tiny particles ( molecules) gives the object energy. The movement of these molecules depends on the state of matter which includes

--> GASEOUS STATE: Here, the particles are completely free to move and are always in motion.

--> LIQUID STATE: particles in this state slide by one another and are always in motion.

--> SOLID STATE: particles in this state are held tightly together but are always in motion.

Also, the molecules in motion are greatly affected by temperature changes. Increase in temperature will cause the particles in the liquid to move faster. Such is seen when soup is heated, the molecules travel faster than before. But the OPPOSITE is seen in an ice cube. This is because the ice cube is in solid state and of a lower temperature.

Students find the pH of Substance A to be 2.1 and Substance B to be 4.4. They are told Substance C is less acidic than Substance
Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

the range should be 2.2 to 4.3

Explanation:

I think so because the numbers at the left side of the scale from 1 are more acidic so as it increases it's still acidic but lesser so 1 is more acidic than 2 so I used 2.2 as the beginning of the range because it's less acidic than A even though its a greater number and 4.3 is lesser than 4.4 but its still greater on the scale. frankly speaking I don't feel so correct because it's in decimal so try and compare facts thank you

What is the percentage strength (w/w) of a solution made by dissolving 62.5 g of potassium chloride in 187.5 ml of water?
kiruha [24]

Percent strength (% w/w) of a solution is defined as the amount of solute present in 100 g of the solution.

Given data:

Mass of the solute, potassium chloride = 62.5 g

Volume of water (solution) = 187.5 ml

We know that the density of water = 1 g/ml

Therefore, the mass corresponding to the given volume of water

= 187.5 ml * 1 g/1 ml = 187.5 g

We have a solution of 62.5 g of potassium chloride in 187.5 g water

Therefore, amount of solute in 100 g of water= 62.5 * 100/187.5 = 33.33

The percentage strength = 33.33 %
