State is characterized by the lowest density of the three states
1 answer:
Answer:
Gas
Explanation:
Matter is anything that has weight and occupies space.
Therefore, we can conclude that every matter has distinct density that typifies them because density is the mass per unit volume of any substance.
Density =
From the density equation, we see that the higher the mass, the higher the density. The higher the volume the lower the density.
- The state of matter with the lowest mass and highest volume will have the lowest density.
- Gases are known to have the least mass because they have very negligible weight.
- The occupy very large spaces according to where they are confined.

Answer:
Dichloromethane
Explanation:
As we know the atomic number given belongs to following elements, i.e.
Atomic # Element M.Mass
1 Hydrogen 1 g.mol⁻¹
6 Carbon 12 g.mol⁻¹
17 Chlorine 35.5 g.mol⁻¹
Also the molecular formula of Dichloromethane is,
= CH₂Cl₂
Putting molar masses of each element,
= (12)₁ + (1)₂ + (35.5)₂
= 12 + 2 + 71
= 85 g.mol⁺¹
Result:
Hence the only possible structure containing 5 atoms is Dichloromethane.
