Characteristic properties are used because the sample size and the shape of the substance does not matter.
Answer:
Knowing that boron has an atomic mass of 10,811 means that all boron isotopes on average weigh 10,811 u.
Explanation:
The atomic mass of an atom is the mass of the atom measured in u (unified atomic mass unit), although we can also express it as Da (Dalton's unit)
Atomic mass refers to the average mass that all isotopes of that element have.
When we speak of isotopes we are referring to the element itself but with a different number of neutrons, which makes it modify its mass number.
When oxygen and hydrogen combine they form a polar covalent bond
Covalent compounds are formed when non metals bond together.
Answer:
THE NEW VOLUME AT 1 K IS 1.2 L
Explanation:
Using Charles' law which states that the volume of a given gas is directly proportional to its temperature provided the pressure remains constant.
Mathematically written as;
V1/T1 = V2/T2 at constant pressure
V1 = Initial volume = 6L
T1 = initial temperature = 5K
T2 = Final temperature = 1K
V2 = final volume = unknown
Re-arranging the equation by making V2 the subject of the equation, we obtain;
V2 = V1 T2 / T1
V2 = 6 * 1 / 5
V2 = 1.2 L
The new volume of the gas sample at 1 K is 1,2 L
