Answer:

The particles move faster and are far apart

Explanation:

A substance may exist in three states of matter; solid, liquid and gas.

In the solid state, there is very strong intermolecular forces between the particles of the substance. They can only vibrate or rotate about their mean positions but can not translate.

In the liquid state, the particles of the substance have a greater degree of freedom than in the solid. The magnitude of intermolecular forces is lower than in solids, the molecules can move at low speeds.

In a gas, the molecules are separated from each other with negligible intermolecular interaction hence they move at very high speed.

Therefore, for the water gas particles in the air above the cup; the particles move faster and are far apart.

Iteru [2.4K]

B. It is open to change as new evidence or data is discovered. If scientists discover new evidence, they must modify their theories to conform with the new data.

A. is incorrect. Scientific laws are so well established that there can be no exceptions.

C. is incorrect. A scientific theory is the collective judgement of scientists as to the best explanation for a phenomenon. A new observation may require modification of the theory.

D. is incorrect. Advancements in technology can provide new evidence that requires new explanations.

In a voltaic (galvanic) cell, oxidation occurs at the _____ and is where _____ in the salt bridge moves toward.

Anna11 [10]

In a voltaic (galvanic) cell, oxidation occurs at the anode and is where anions in the salt bridge moves toward.

<h3>What is Galvanic Cell ?</h3>

Galvanic Cell or Voltaic Cell is an electrochemical cell that converts the energy of spontaneous redox reactions into electrical energy. In galvanic cell oxidation occurs at the anode and reduction occurs at the cathode. The anode is positive and cathode is negative, anode attracts anions from solution in an electrolytic cell.

Thus from the above conclusion we can say that In a voltaic (galvanic) cell, oxidation occurs at the anode and is where anions in the salt bridge moves toward.

Consider the statement, “In a chemical reaction, atoms are neither created nor destroyed, only rearranged.” Why is this a statem

Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer: The law of conservation of mass is reffering to the fact that energy cannot be created or destroyed. So when you speak about atoms not being created or destroyed it is the same thing. Unless you're talking about an atomic bomb where the atoms are split.
