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.

Determine the volume of a substance that has a density of 1.84 g/ml and a mass of 12 grams
vazorg [7]
Hey there!:

density = mass / volume

1.84 g/mL =  12 g / V

V =  12 / 1.84

V = 6.521 mL

hope this helps!

How much thermal energy is in 100 grams of water at 50 degrees Celsius
Ymorist [56]
when the thermal energy is the energy contained within a system that is responsible for its temperature.  

and when the thermal energy  is can be determined by this formula:

q = M * C *ΔT

when q  is the thermal energy

and M is the mass of water = 100 g 

and C is the specific heat capacity of water = 4.18 joules/gram.°C

and T is the difference in Temperature = 50 °C

So by substitution:

∴ q = 100 g * 4.18 J/g.°C * 50

   = 20900 J  = 20.9 KJ

What mass in grams of SO2 is needed to react with 37.50 mol of Oz?
-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

4804.5 g of SO₂ are needed to the reaction

Explanation:

The reaction to produce sulfuric acid is:

2SO₂ + O₂ + 2H₂O →  2H₂SO₄

Ratio is 1:2. 1 mol of oxygen needs 2 moles of sulfur dioxide in order to react. We can propose this rule of three.

If 1 mol of O₂ react to 2 moles of SO₂

Then, 37.50 moles of O₂ will react with (37.5 . 2) /1 = 75 moles of SO₂

We convert the moles to mass, to know the answer:

75 mol . 64.06 g / 1 mol = 4804.5 g of SO₂
