Answer:
- Compress
- Fixed
- Melts
- Melting Point
- Freezing Point
- High
- Crystalline
- Lattice
- Unit cell
- Amorphous solids
Explanation:
Solids tend to be dense and difficult to <u>compress.</u>
They do not flow or take the shape of their containers, like liquids do, because the particles in solids vibrate around <u>fixed</u> points.
When a solid is heated until its particles vibrate so rapidly that they are no longer held in fixed positions, the solid <u>melts</u>.
<u>Melting point</u> is the temperature at which a solid changes to a liquid. The melting and <u>freezing point</u> of a substance are at the same temperature.
In general, ionic solids tend to have relatively <u>high</u> melting points, while molecular solids tend to have relatively low melting points.
Most solids are <u>crystalline</u>
The particles are arranged in a pattern known as a crystal <u>lattice</u>
The smallest subunit of a crystal lattice is the <u>unit cell</u>
Some solids lack an ordered internal structure and are called <u>amorphous solids.</u>
Minerals can be identified by their physical characteristics. The physical properties of minerals are related to their chemical composition and bonding. Some characteristics, such as a mineral’s hardness, are more useful for mineral identification. Color is readily observable and certainly obvious, but it is usually less reliable than other physical properties.
Answer:
0.17 moles
Explanation:
In the elements of the periodic table, the atomic mass = molar mass. <u>Ex:</u> Atomic mass of Carbon is 12.01 amu which means molar mass of Carbon is also 12.01g/mol.
In order to find the # of moles in a 12 g sample of NiC-12, we will need to multiply the number of each atom by its molar mass and then add the masses of both Nickel and C-12 found in the periodic table:
- Molar Mass of Ni (Nickel): 58.69 g/mol
- Molar Mass of C (Carbon): 12.01 g/mol
Since there's just one atom of both Carbon and Nickel, we just add up the masses to find the molar mass of the whole compound of NiC-12.
- 58.69 g/mol of Nickel + 12.01 g/mol of Carbon = 70.7 g/mol of NiC-12
There's 12g of NiC-12, which is less than the molar mass of NiC-12, so the number of moles should be less than 1. In order to find the # of moles in NiC-12, we need to do some dimensional analysis:
- 12g NiC-12 (1 mol of NiC-12/70.7g NiC-12) = 0.17 mol of NiC-12
- The grams cancel, leaving us with moles of NiC-12, so the answer is 0.17 moles of NiC-12 in a 12 g sample.
<em>P.S. C-12 or C12 just means that the Carbon atom has an atomic mass of 12amu and a molar mass of 12g/mol, or just regular carbon.</em>
B.) Copper
The alkaline battery gets its call because of the fact it has an alkaline electrolyte of potassium hydroxide, as adverse to the acidic electrolyte of the zinc-carbon batteries that are presented interior the same nominal voltages and actual length.

layers of rock get folded
