Answer:

If it can change shapes easily.

Explanation:

A fixed volume eliminates gas as a possible state of matter, therefore leaving liquid and solid.

If the substance can easily change shape, it is a liquid. If it cannot change shape, then it is a solid.

Another way to determine the state of matter is through particle movement.

If particles slip past each other, it is a liquid. If particles vibrate in place, it is a solid.

The concentration of hydronium ions is greater than 1 × 10–7 for basic solutions. True False

Nataly [62]

Answer : The given statement is, false.

Explanation :

Ionic product of water : It is defined as the product of the concentration of hydrogen ion and the concentration of hydroxide ion.

The mathematical expression will be,

$[H^+][OH^-]=10^{-14}$

When the concentration of hydrogen ion and hydroxide ion are equal then the solution is neutral and the value will be, $1\times 10^{-7}$ . And the pH of the solution is, 7.

When the concentration of hydrogen ion is greater than $1\times 10^{-7}$ then the solution is acidic in nature. And the pH of the solution is, less than 7.

When the concentration of hydrogen ion is less than $1\times 10^{-7}$ then the solution is basic in nature. And the pH of the solution is, greater than 7.

Hence, the given statement is false.
