Gas Giants are usually bigger than Terrestrial Planets. Gas Giants also have thicker atmospheres, and have gaseous surfaces. Terrestrial planet tend to be smaller, and have solid surfaces. In our solar system, Mercury, Venus, Earth (home), and Mars are Terrestrial planets. While Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus (the planet), and Neptune are Gas Giants. Gas Giants are also known as Jovian planets.
Explanation:
There are three states of matter:
1) Solid: In this state, the particles lie closer to each other. there is a strong intermolecular force of attraction between the particles.
2) Liquid: In this state, the particles are at a certain distance to each other. There is an intermediate intermolecular force of attraction between the particles.
3) Gas: In this state, the particles are farther from each other. There is weaker intermolecular force of attraction between the particles.
As the number of carbon atoms in a molecule increases, the number of particles increases and the particles will come closer to each other. Hence, the state of matter will shift towards the solid state.
Viscosity is defined as the tendency to resist the particles to flow. As, the number of carbon atoms increases, the Vander-Walls forces increases, the particles are closer to each other and Hence, the viscosity will increase.
Answer:
The bonds that exist between their atoms and molecules differ on an atomic scale.
Explanation:
The three basic states of matter are solid, liquid, and gas. The major difference between them is the strength of the bonds that hold their molecules together. This affects the way that the molecules interact with each other.
The intermolecular forces binding solids together are very strong. This makes solids rigid and not able to move about freely, but rather, only able to vibrate about a mean position.
The intermolecular forces binding liquid atoms together are a lot weaker than that of solids. This makes liquids able to flow.
The intermolecular forces binding gas molecules together are the weakest. As a result, the gases can move about freely and occupy no definite volume.
Answer:
2 electrons
8 electrons
8 electrons
1 electron (just count in the rings for these ones)
19 protons (it says "P=19" in the middle. The P stands for Protons)
K (it's from Latin medieval Latin "kalium")
39 (add proton and neutron amounts to get the approximate atomic mass--electrons are negligible)
