Liquids have fixed volume but not fixed shape, so B.

Answer: Option (B) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

In liquids, molecules are held together by less strong intermolecular forces of attraction. As a result, there is some space between each molecule of a liquid.

Hence, the molecules of a liquid are able to slide through each other.

And, due to this a liquid substance does have a definite mass but it does have a definite shape as it occupies the shape of container in which it is kept.

Generally, liquids are not easily compressible as gases can be compressed more easily because molecules of a gas are held by weak vander waal forces.

Thus, we can conclude that indefinite volume is not a physical property of a liquid.

Chlorine is the most widely used disinfectant for killing pathogens during water treatment. Determine the kilograms of chlorine
makkiz [27]

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

    Flow of chlorine (Q) = 10,000 m^{3}/day

Amount of liter present per day is as follows.

                  10,000 \times 10^{3} l/day

It is given that dosage of chlorine will be as follows.

                   10 mg/l = 10 \times 10^{-6} kg/l

Therefore, total chlorine requirement is as follows.

          Total chlorine requirement = (10,000 \times 10^{3}) \times (10 \times 10^{-6}) kg/day

                                        = 100 kg/day

Thus, we can conclude that the kilograms of chlorine used daily at the given water treatment plant is 100 kg/day.

C5H12, pentane, is a liquid at room temperature.
zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

C)We cannot be sure unless we find out its boiling point.

Explanation:

I will like to clearly state that simply comparing two compounds will not tell us exactly which one will be a liquid, solid or gas at room temperature.

If I want to determine whether an unknown substance will be a liquid at room temperature, I will have to measure its boiling point. If the boiling point is above room temperature, and the melting point is below room temperature, it’s a liquid. If the boiling point of the unknown substance is below room temperature, it is a gas.

This confirms that we cannot conclude on the state of matter in which a compound exists unless we know something about its boiling point, not by inspecting the properties of neighbouring compounds in the same homologous series

Acetic acid has a heat of fusion of 10.8 kJ/mol and a heat of vaporization of 24.3 kJ/mol. What is the expected value for the he
photoshop1234 [79]

Answer: 35.1 kJ/mol

Explanation:

According to Hess’s law of constant heat summation, the heat absorbed or evolved in a given chemical equation is the same whether the process occurs in one step or several steps.

According to this law, the chemical equation can be treated as ordinary algebraic expression and can be added or subtracted to yield the required equation. That means the enthalpy change of the overall reaction is the sum of the enthalpy changes of the intermediate reactions.

CH_3COOH(s)\rightarrow CH_3COOH(l)    \Delta H_{fusion}=10.8kJ/mol   (1)

CH_3COOH(l)\rightarrow CH_3COOH(g)    \Delta H_{vap}=24.3kJ/mol   (1)

The final reaction is:  

CH_3COOH(s)\rightarrow CH_3COOH(g)  \Delta H_{sub}=?   (3)

By adding (1) and (2)

\Delta H_{sub}=\Delta H_{fusion}+\Delta H_{sub}=+10.8kJ+(+24.3kJ)=35.1kJ

Hence the expected value for the heat of sublimation of acetic acid is 35.1 kJ/mol
