The average distance between molecules always increases during which of the following phase changes?
vodomira [7]

Answer:

B. liquid to gas

Explanation:

Matter exists in 3 different states:

- Solid: in solids, particles in the substance are tightly bond to each other through strong intermolecular forces. Therefore, they can only vibrate around their fixed position, but they cannot move freely: as a result, the distance between the particles is the smallest among the 3 states of matter.

- Liquid: in a liquid, particles are able to slide past each other, however there are still intermolecular forces keeping them not too far from each other. As a result, in liquids, particles are on average more distance from each other compared to solids.

- Gas: in a gas, particles are completely free to move, as the intermolecular forces between them are negligible. As a result, in gases, the distance between molecules is the greatest, compared with solids and liquids.

Therefore, the phase changes in which the average distance between molecules increases is:

B. liquid to gas

What is the difference between water and alcohol
Rudik [331]

Answer:

water is H2O having different structure than alcohol R-OH which means they have different properties too.

Explanation:

In water one oxygen atom  is covalently bound with  two hydrogen atoms while alcohol is an organic compound  having Oh group attached to the carbon chain.

Other than liquid water can occur in solid form that is ice and in gaseous form that is vapors too while alcohol only present in liquid form.

heat of evaporation of alcohol is lower than water means water need more heat to evaporate than alcohol that is why we can say alcohol having more cooling effect than water.

Yet a third pair of compounds of manganese and oxygen is 50.48% and 36.81% oxygen respectively. In what small whole number ratio
Mariulka [41]

Answer:

The number ratio is 4:7

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Compound 1 has 50.48 % oxygen

Compound 2 has 36.81 % oxygen

Molar mass oxygen = 16 g/mol

Molar mass manganese = 54.94 g/mol

Step 2: Calculate % manganes

Compound 1: 100 - 50.48 = 49.52 %

Compound 2: 100 - 36.81 = 63.19 %

Step 3: Calculate mass

Suppose mass of compounds = 100 grams

Compound 1:

 50.48 % O = 50.48 grams

 49.52 % Mn = 49.52 grams

Compound 2:

36.81 % O = 36.81 grams

63.19 % Mn = 63.19 grams

Step 4: Calculate moles

Compound 1

Moles O = 50.48 grams / 16.0 g/mol = 3.155 moles

Moles Mn = 49.52 grams / 54.94 g/mol = 0.9013 moles

Compound 2

Moles O = 36.81 grams / 16.0 g/mol = 2.301 moles

Moles Mn = 63.19 grams / 54.94 g/mol = 1.150 moles

Step 5: calculate mol ratio

We will divide by the smallest amount of moles

Compound 1

O: 3.155/0.9013 = 3.5

Mn: 0.9013 / 0.9013 = 1

Mn2O7

Compound 2

O: 2.301 / 1.150 = 2

Mn: 1.150 / 1.150 = 1

MnO2

The number ratio is 2:3.5 or 4:7

Why do solids maintain their shape, whereas fluids do not?
Vinvika [58]
Solids maintain their shape, whereas fluids do not because <span>the molecules in solids maintain a regular pattern and only vibrate, or move very slowly. The correct option among all the options that are given in the question is the last option or option "d". I hope the answer has come to your help.</span>
