How does the arrangement of particles determine the physical properties of different states of matter?​

Chemistry
1 answer:
Usimov [2.4K]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

Matter may exist in three phases; solid, liquid and gas. The state in which matter exists depends on the extent of intermolecular forces operating in the substance.

In solid particles, the molecules that compose the solid are close together because the molecules of a solid do not move from place to place but they continue to vibrate about their fixed position.

For liquids, the molecules that compose a liquid are in random motion but are less energetic than molecules of a gas.

In gases, the molecules are not held together at all. The molecules of a gas have the highest degree of freedom. They move from one point another at a high velocity.

Hence, the order of increasing degree of movement of the particles in different states of matter = solids<liquids< gases.

Solids have well arranged particles, the molecules of a liquid are a little more disorderly than liquid particles while gas particles are the most disorderly of all the states of matter.

In the reaction aA + bB &gt;&gt; dD, the lowercase letters represent?
jolli1 [7]

Answer:

Coefficient

Explanation:

Chemical equation:

aA + bB    →   dD

This equation shows that reaction is balanced by coefficient q,b and d.

Reactant    coefficients              Product      Coefficient

A                    a                               D                     d

 B                    b                  

Every balanced equation follow the law of conservation of mass.

Law of conservation of mass:

According to the law of conservation mass, mass can neither be created nor destroyed in a chemical equation.

Explanation:

This law was given by french chemist  Antoine Lavoisier in 1789. According to this law mass of reactant and mass of product must be equal, because masses are not created or destroyed in a chemical reaction.

For example:

In given photosynthesis reaction:

6CO₂ + 6H₂O + energy → C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂

there are six carbon atoms, eighteen oxygen atoms and twelve hydrogen atoms on the both side of equation so this reaction followed the law of conservation of mass. The numbers 6 with CO₂, 6 with H₂O and 6 with O₂  are coefficient which balance the equation.

Ca(OH)2 + H3PO4 = Ca3(PO4)2 + H2O
larisa [96]
Make a quick chart with each element represented, and count them up. HINT - leave the polyatomic anions together - in this case, PO4

Left      Right
1     Ca  3
2      O   1
5      H   2
1    PO4 2

Begin by balancing like finding common denominators of fractions - apply to both sides:
I started by adding a 2 in front of H3PO4 on the left, them 6 in front of H2O on the right. Last, a 3 in front of Ca (OH)2. Then, re-count using the chart format to make sure you're right.

3Ca(OH)2 + 2H3PO4 = Ca3(PO4)2 + 6H2O
