Answer:

A liquid

Explanation:

Liquids has an indefinite shape, which means it could change from one shape to another. For example, if you pour water into a rectangular fish tank. The shape of the liquid changes into a rectangle. Definite volume means its volume is consistent and that it is unchangeable. If you fill the rectangular fish tank with water, the volume of the water stays the same even though it changes shape.

Hope this helps.

An air mattress is filled with 16.5 moles of air. The air inside the mattress has a temperature of 295 K and a gauge pressure of
Andreas93 [3]

 The volume  of  air  mattress is  = 1.127 L

    <u><em>calculation</em></u>

The   volume  of air is calculated  using the ideal gas equation

that is Pv=nRT  where,

     P(pressure)= 3.5 kilopascals  convert  into Atm

                      1 atm   =0.00987 KPa

                        ?atm  =  3.5 Kpa

=  (3.5 kpa  x 1 atm)  / 0.00987 kpa =354.6  atm

V(volume) = ?

n( no  of moles) = 16.5  moles

R (gas constant)=   0.0821 L.atm/mol.K

T(Temperature) =  295 K


make V  the subject of the formula   V=nRT/P

V= ( 16.5 moles x 0.0821  atm/mol.K  x 295 k)  /354.6 atm =<u><em>1.127 L</em></u>

Need help please I need to select one element for each following families on the periodic table
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

There are five Family on the periodic table that are alkali metals , Alkaline earth metals , transition metals , Halogens family and noble gas family.

1) In alkali metals, there are six elements are present and among all the elements Sodium metal should be selected. Because sodium metal is most abundant metal in the world.

  • uses of sodium are
  • sodium salt are common salt that added to the food to enhance the taste.
  • washing soda are made up of sodium salt which is used as water softener.
  • sodium salts are also used as buffer to maintain Ph.

2) In alkaline earth metal family, The magnesium element should be selected.

  • uses of magnesium are
  • since magnesium is a soft metal so it can burn easily therefore it is used in fire works.
  • magnesium is also important for proper growth and maintenance of bones.
  • Magnesium is light weight metal so it can used to make car seat , luggage and power tools etc.

3) In Halogens gas family , chlorine should be selected.

  • Uses of chlorine are
  • The chlorine is used in cleaning purpose as it act as bleaching agent.
  • Chlorine is also used to prepare the pesticides to removes pest in crops.
  • In refrigerators, the cold breeze is coming out is chlorine gas which are used to increase the shelf life of the plants.

4) In transition metals , copper metal should be choose.

  • Use of copper metal are
  • Copper is highly ductile metal so it drawn into wires and used in various electrical purpose.
  • The copper has anti corrosive properties so it can used in making kitchen utensils.
  • The copper has anti microbial property so it can used in packaging of food.

5) In noble gas elements, The helium gas should be selected

  • uses of helium gas are
  • It used as semiconductors.
  • It used in party balloons.
  • The helium is inert gas so it used to make optical fibers.

These are the daily life usage of all the elements of each family of the periodic table.
