Answer:

C. Is an inward force that tends to minimize the surface area of a liquid

Explanation:

  • Surface tension is a skin-like proper of water that is explained by its property or ability to form hydrogen bonds. The water molecule has the ability to bind the molecules from all sides that surrounds it.  
  • The force of action on each of the molecules is balanced. The surface tension is a more inward phenomenon and it holds the droplet in a spherical shape.

Evgesh-ka [11]

IT IS NOT POSSIBLE TO RETRIEVE A BOTTLE OF SULFATE BECAUSE SULFATE DOES NOT EXIST AS A DISTINCT CHEMICAL COMPOUND.

Sulphate is a polyatomic ion. A polyatomic ions refers to group of atoms that carry charges. Sulfate carries a charge of +2. Sulfate is a very reactive ion, thus, it can not be found existing on its own, it is always found in combination with other elements, such elements include H2SO4 and CaSO4.

The substance nitrogen has the following properties: normal melting point: 63.2 K normal boiling point: 77.4 K triple point: 0.1
shusha [124]

Answer:

- N2 does not exist as a liquid at pressures below 0.127 atm.

- N2 is a solid at 16.7 atm and 56.5 K.

- N2 is a liquid at 1.00 atm and 73.9 K

- N2 is a gas at 0.127 atm and 84.0 K.

Explanation:

Hello,

At first, we organize the information:

- Normal melting point: 63.2 K.

- Normal boiling point: 77.4 K.

- Triple point: 0.127 atm and 63.1 K.

- Critical point: 33.5 atm and 126.0 K.

In such a way:

- N2 does not exist as a liquid at pressures below 0.127 atm: that is because below this point, solid N2 exists only (triple point).

- N2 is a solid at 16.7 atm and 56.5 K: that is because it is above the triple point, below the critical point and below the normal melting point.

- N2 is a liquid at 1.00 atm and 73.9 K: that is because it is above the triple point, below the critical point and below the normal boiling point.

- N2 is a gas at 0.127 atm and 84.0 K: that is because it is above the triple point temperature at the triple point pressure.

Best regards.
