Which statement describes the water gas particles in the air above the cup compared with the water liquid

Chemistry
1 answer:
Law Incorporation [45]3 years ago
8 0

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.

In metallic bonds, electrons are referred to as electrons.​
GrogVix [38]

Answer:

Metallic bonding may be described as the sharing of free electrons among a lattice of positively charged metal ions. The structure of metallic bonds is very different from that of covalent and ionic bonds. ... In metallic bonds, the valence electrons from the s and p orbitals of the interacting metal atoms delocalize.

What is the empirical formula of a compound composed of 30.5 g potassium (k) and 6.24 g oxygen (o)?
VLD [36.1K]
K5O2

convert grams to moles, divide both by the smallest mole mass, multiply that until hole.

30.5 g K ÷ 39.10 = .78 mol
6.24 g O ÷ 16 = .39 mol
.78 mol ÷ .39 mol = 2.5
.39 mol ÷ .39 mol = 1
2.5 x 2 = 5
1 x 2 = 2
K5O2

Which pair of atoms will MOST likely form a covalent bond?
Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

An atom with 1 valence electron and an atom with 7 valence electrons

Explanation:

Covalent bond:

It is formed by the sharing of electron pair between bonded atoms.  

The atom with larger electronegativity attract the electron pair more towards it self and becomes partial negative while the other atom becomes partial positive.

For example:

In water the electronegativity of oxygen is 3.44 and hydrogen is 2.2. That's why electron pair attracted more towards oxygen, thus oxygen becomes partial negative and hydrogen becomes partial positive.

the number of valance electrons of oxygen are six and hydrogen is one that's why two hydrogen atoms are attached with one oxygen atom and complete the octet.
