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.

A 100.0 mL sample of 0.300 M NaOH is mixed with a 100.0 mL sample of 0.300 M HNO3 in a coffee cup calorimeter. If both solutions
Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

Qm  = -55.8Kj/mole

Explanation:

NaOH(aq) + HNO₃(aq) => NaNO₃(aq) + H₂O(l)

Qm = (mc∆T)water /moles acid

Given => 100ml(0.300M) NaOH(aq) + 100ml(0.300M)HNO₃(aq)

=> 0.03mole NaOH(aq) + 0.03mole HNO₃(aq)

=> 0.03mole NaNO₃(aq) + 0.03mole H₂O(l)

ΔH⁰rxn = [(200ml)(1.00cal/g∙°C)(37 – 35)°C]water / 0.03mole HNO₃

= 13,333 cal/mole x 4.184J/cal = 55,787J/mol = 55.8Kj/mole (exothermic)*

Heat of reactions comes from formation of H-Oxy bonds on formation of water of reaction and heats the 200ml of solvent water from 35⁰C to 37⁰C.

Structural, electronic, and thermodynamic properties of TiO$_{2}$/organic clusters: performance of DFTB method with different pa
Sladkaya [172]

A second-order extension of the Kohn-Sham total energy in density-functional theory (DFT) with respect to charge density fluctuations serves as the foundation for the density functional based tight binding (DFTB) approach.

What is DFTB method?

  • The density functional based tight binding (DFTB) electronic structure method was used to study the clusters of bare TiO2 and TiO2 with linked organic ligands modeling polyorganic composites used as photocatalytic materials.
  • The results were compared to those obtained from B3LYP/6-31G(d,p) calculations, semiempirical methods PM6 and PM7, and available experimental data.
  • It was discovered that the highly scalable DFTB approach produces outcomes that are nearly on the level of theory B3LYP/6-31G(d,p).
  • The trans3d set more accurately reproduces the energies of the composite material production in polycondensation processes, but the corrected version of the tiorg DFTB parameter set (tiorg-smooth) performs better for structural parameter estimations.
  • The tiorg-smooth and trans3d settings perform better than the matsci set in some way. Studies of adsorption complexes of bare TiO2 clusters can be conducted using the tiorg-smooth and matsci sets.

What mechanical waves needs a medium to travel through?
ValentinkaMS [17]
A) all mechanical waves need a medium to travel through.
This is true because mechanical waves move in a wave like manner at the atomic level. This is why an table vibrates when you put a speaker on top of it .

you have an object with mass of 86 g and volume of 10 cm^3 (cubed). calculate density, show your work, and identify which materi
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

8.6g/cm³ (BRASS)

Explanation:

Given the following :

Mass of object = 86g

Volume of object = 10cm³

The density of an object is calculated using the formula :

Density(g/cm³) = mass(g) / volume(cm³)

Inputting our values :

Density = 86g / 10cm³

Density = 8.6g/cm³

According to the table provided, the object which corresponds to having a density of 8.6g/cm³ is BRASS
