If liquids are liquids because they take the shape of their container, why isn't salt considered a liquid?

Salt isnt considered a liquid because salt is somewhat solid. A liquid only becomes solid when it is frozen.

Because a liquid has no definite shape but has a definite volume it can take the shape of its container. Salt is considered crystalline solid.


Hope this helps ;-) <span />

agasfer [191]

Answer: 243 hours

Explanation:

Expression for rate law for first order kinetics is given by:

t=\frac{2.303}{k}\log\frac{a}{a-x}

where,

k = rate constant

t = age of sample

a = initial amount of the reactant = 5.000\mu g

a - x = amount left after decay process =  \frac{10}{100}\times 5.000\mu g=0.5\mu g

a) for completion of half life:

Half life is the amount of time taken by a radioactive material to decay to half of its original value.

t_{\frac{1}{2}}=\frac{0.693}{k}

k=\frac{0.693}{73.00hours}=9.49\times 10^{-3}hours^{-1}

b) for reducing the mass to 10.00 % of its original mass

t=\frac{2.303}{k}\log\frac{a}{a-x}

t=\frac{2.303}{9.49\times 10^{-3}}\log\frac{5.000}{0.5}

t=243hours

The time taken to reach 10.00 % of its original mass is 243 hours

Detecta cuál de las siguientes fórmulas estructurales no cumple con la tetravalencia del carbono (formar cuatro enlaces)
o-na [289]

El ejercicio completo con las formulas es el siguiente:

cuál de las siguientes fórmulas no cumple con la tetravalencia del átomo de carbono.

a. CH3-CH2-CH2-OH

b. CH3-CH=CH2

c. CH3-CH2=CH2

d. CH3-CH2-CH3

Answer:

La respuesta correcta es la opción C

Explanation:

En la formula C, podemos ver claramente que no se cumple con la tetravalencia del carbono pues al sumar el total de las valencias del carbono nos da 5

CH3 - CH2  =   CH2 = Total de valencias del carbono 5

         1 + 2+  2   =  5

Para que la formula sea correcta debe eliminarse un hidrogeno quedando la formula de la siguiente manera:

                      CH3   -  CH   =   CH2

                                 1 +  1  + 2 =  4

How reactive is an atom of Sodium(Na) and why?
s344n2d4d5 [400]
3rd one:
it is very reactive because it does not have a full Valence shell.

this is because it's in group 1 so it has one electron in its outer shell, and it wants to have a full outer shell ( which it can gain by losing the electron in a reaction).

Hope this helps :)

Laura has 3 beakers. Each contain 200cm3 of colourless liquid. Describe how Laura could determine which beakers contain pure wat
vova2212 [387]

Answer:

Laura can look for a transparent and  translucent liquid and hence determine which beaker has water and which has solution

Explanation:

Pure water is a compound that is transparent in color. However, a solution is a liquid mixture comprising of a solvent or a solute. The atoms of solute occupy space between the atoms of solvent and hence are said to dissolve in it. Water can be a solvent.  

Thus, if the beaker has a transparent liquid in it, then it would be pure water while a beaker having a translucent liquid, then it would be a solution
