Liquids have a definite volume when poured into a container. What does this mean?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Vanyuwa [196]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

A solid has definite volume <em>and</em> definite shape, a gas has neither definite volume nor definite shape, and as said in the question, a liquid has a definite volume but no definite shape.

What this means is that even though liquid molecules can slide past each other and move to fill up the space they are in (this means that liquids have no definite shape), they keep their volume. That is, liquids have consistent, unchanging volume.

Hopefully that's helpful! :)

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

The third and fourth elements in the first transition series are vanadium and chromium. They contain 23 and 24 electrons respectively.

In universe L, the electron configuration of vanadium is;

[X]  3d3 4s2

In universe L, the electron configuration of chromium is;

[X] 3d4 4s2

The electron configuration of chromium has to change since there are four instead of five d orbitals in universe L.

What is the density of an object that has a volume of 89.6 mL and a mass of 13.57 g?
allsm [11]

Answer:

The answer is

<h2>0.15 g/mL</h2>

Explanation:

The density of a substance can be found by using the formula

density =  \frac{mass}{volume}

From the question

mass of object = 13.57 g

volume = 89.6 mL

The density is

density =  \frac{13.57}{89.6}  \\  = 0.15145089285714...

We have the final answer as

<h3>0.15 g/mL</h3>

Hope this helps you

The density of acetonitrile (CH3CN) is 0.786 g/mL, and the density of methanol (CH3OH) is 0.791 g/mL. A solution is made by diss
ololo11 [35]

Answer:

The answer to your question is  0.22

Explanation:

Data

Acetonitrile (CH₃CN) density = 0.786 g/ml

Methanol (CH₃OH) density = 0.791 g/ml

Volume of CH₃OH = 22 ml

Volume of CH₃CN = 98.4 ml

Process

1.- Calculate the mass of Acetonitrile and the mass of Methanol

density = mass/ volume

mass = density x volume

Acetonitrile

        mass = 0.786 x 98.4

                  = 77.34 g

Methanol

        mass = 0.791 x 22

                  = 17.40 g

2.- Calculate the moles of the reactants

Acetonitrile molar mass = (12 x 2) + (14 x 1) + (3 x 1)

                                        = 24 + 14 + 3

                                        = 41 g

Methanol molar mass = (12 x 1) + (4 x 1) + (16 x 1)

                                      = 12 + 4 + 16

                                      = 32 g

Moles of Acetonitrile

                     41 g ----------------- 1 mol

                      77.34g ------------  x

                      x = (77.34 x 1) / 41

                      x = 1.89 moles

Moles of Methanol

                      32 g -------------- 1 mol

                       17.40 g ---------  x

                       x = (17.40 x 1)/32

                       x = 0.54 moles

3.- Calculate the mole fraction of Methanol

Total number of moles = 1.89 + 0.54

                                       = 2.43

Mole fraction = moles of Methanol / total number of moles

Mole fraction = 0.54/ 2.43

Mole fraction = 0.22
