Why do solids maintain a specific shape and volume?

Chemistry
1 answer:
s344n2d4d5 [400]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Solids can hold their shape because their molecules are tightly packed together. ... Atoms and molecules in liquids and gases are bouncing and floating around, free to move where they want. The molecules in a solid are stuck in a specific structure or arrangement of atoms.

3.0 x 108 m/s is the
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

Speed of light

Explanation:

The value 3.0 x 10⁸m/s is taken as the speed of light.

It is a constant.

  • It implies that light travels a distance of 3 x 10⁸ in just one second.
  • This value is for the speed of light in a vacuum when there are not particles obstructing its movement.
  • The speed of electromagnetic radiations in free space is also taken as the speed of light.

What is the difference between the mass number for carbon- 14 and carbon's atomic number of 12.011 amu
Dennis_Churaev [7]
Great question, but I believe you are mixing up atomic number with mass number. Assuming you are, 12.011 amu is the average mass of a carbon atom. For carbon, it can come in three forms: carbon-12, carbon-13, carbon-14. The number following carbon is the mass number of that particular carbon "isotope". The reason the average is so close to 12 is because carbon-12 is by far the most common, so the average should be (and is) very close to 12. Therefore, 12.011 is a weighted average of all carbon molecules, and carbon-14 is a particular carbon molecule that weighs 14 amu.

Which equation will you use to calculate the volume of a 5.00 liter sample of air at 50°C when it is warmed to 100°C at constant
Alexandra [31]
I believe it's a proportion of volume over temperature = volume and temperature. cross multiply and divide and see what u get. if it looks right go fro it if not try something else. I hope this helps!
