Which of these is a chemical property of matter?

The electron cloud of HF is smaller than that of F2, however, HF has a much higher boiling point than F2 has. Which of the follo

mafiozo [28]

Answer:D

Explanation:

The high boiling point of HF is not attributable to the dispersion forces mentioned in the question. In HF, a stronger attraction is in operation, that is hydrogen bonding. This ultimately accounts for the high boiling point and not solely the dispersion model as in F2.

Which piece of the planetary object data could be used to decide if there actually is a solid surface to land on?

zloy xaker [14]

A planetary surface is where the solid (or liquid) material of the outer crust on certain types of astronomical objects contacts the atmosphere or outer space. Planetary surfaces are found on solid objects of planetary mass, including terrestrial planets (including Earth), dwarf planets, natural satellites, planetesimals and many other small Solar System bodies (SSSBs).[1][2][3] The study of planetary surfaces is a field of planetary geology known as surface geology, but also a focus of a number of fields including planetary cartography, topography, geomorphology, atmospheric sciences, and astronomy. Land (or ground) is the term given to non-liquid planetary surfaces. The term landing is used to describe the collision of an object with a planetary surface and is usually at a velocity in which the object can remain intact and remain attached.

In differentiated bodies, the surface is where the crust meets the planetary boundary layer. Anything below this is regarded as being sub-surface or sub-marine. Most bodies more massive than super-Earths, including stars and gas giants, as well as smaller gas dwarfs, transition contiguously between phases, including gas, liquid, and solid. As such, they are generally regarded as lacking surfaces.

Planetary surfaces and surface life are of particular interest to humans as it is the primary habitat of the species, which has evolved to move over land and breathe air. Human space exploration and space colonization therefore focuses heavily on them. Humans have only directly explored the surface of Earth and the Moon. The vast distances and complexities of space makes direct exploration of even near-Earth objects dangerous and expensive. As such, all other exploration has been indirect via space probes.

Indirect observations by flyby or orbit currently provide insufficient information to confirm the composition and properties of planetary surfaces. Much of what is known is from the use of techniques such as astronomical spectroscopy and sample return. Lander spacecraft have explored the surfaces of planets Mars and Venus. Mars is the only other planet to have had its surface explored by a mobile surface probe (rover). Titan is the only non-planetary object of planetary mass to have been explored by lander. Landers have explored several smaller bodies including 433 Eros (2001), 25143 Itokawa (2005), Tempel 1 (2005), 67P/Churyumov–Gerasimenko (2014), 162173 Ryugu (2018) and 101955 Bennu (2020). Surface samples have been collected from the Moon (returned 1969), 25143 Itokawa (returned 2010), 162173 Ryugu and 101955 Bennu.

How many atoms are there in 8.88 g Si?

Mariana [72]

Answer:

$\boxed {\boxed {\sf 1.90 \times 10^{23} \ atoms \ Si}}$

Explanation:

We are asked to find how many atoms are in 8.88 grams of silicon.

<h3>1. Grams to Moles </h3>

First, we convert grams to moles. We use the molar mass or the mass of 1 mole of a substance. These values are found on the Periodic Table as they are equal to the atomic masses, but the units are grams per mole instead of atomic mass units.

Look up silicon's molar mass.

Si: 28.085 g/mol

We will convert using dimensional analysis. Set up a conversion factor with the molar mass.

$\frac { 28.085 \ g \ Si}{1 \ mol \ Si}$

We are converting 8.88 grams of silicon to moles, so we multiply by this value.

$8.88 \ g \ Si *\frac { 28.085 \ g \ Si}{1 \ mol \ Si}$

Flip the fraction so the units of grams of silicon cancel.

$8.88 \ g \ Si *\frac{1 \ mol \ Si} { 28.085 \ g \ Si}$

$8.88 *\frac{1 \ mol \ Si} { 28.085 }$

$\frac {8.88} { 28.085 } \ mol \ Si$

$0.316183015845 \ mol \ Si$

<h3>2. Moles to Atoms </h3>

Next, we convert moles to atoms. We use Avogadro's Number or 6.022 × 10²³. This is the number of particles (atoms, molecules, formula units, etc.) in 1 mole of a substance. In this case, the particles are atoms of silicon.

Set up another conversion factor.

$\frac {6.022 \times 10^{23} \ atoms \ Si}{1 \ mol \ Si}$
