A polymer is a really long chain of smaller molecules (monomers). It's similar to a chain of paper clips because all of the little monomers will attach to each other, forming a long strain.
Answer:
An orbital is a region in space where there is a high probability of finding an electron.
Explanation:
The orbital is a concept that developed in quantum mechanics. Recall that Neils Bohr postulated that the electron occupied stationary states which he called energy levels. Electrons emit radiation when the move from a higher to a lower energy level. Similarly, energy is absorbed by an electron to move from a lower to a higher orbit.
This idea was upturned by the Heisenberg uncertainty principle. This principle state that the momentum and position of a particle can not be simultaneously measured with precision.
Instead of defining a 'fixed position' for the electron, we define a region in space where there is a possibility of finding an electron with a certain amount of energy. This orbital is identified by a set of quantum numbers.
Answer: liquid or fluid
Explanation: liquid can take forms
Answer:
Not all mixtures are solutions. A solution is a specific term that describes an even or homogeneous mixture of a solute, the substance being mixed, in a solvent, the substance that is in a greater amount in which the solute dissolves. All solutions are mixtures because it is two or more substances mixed together.
Explanation:
There are three ways that scientists have proved that these sub-atomic particles exist. They are direct observation, indirect observation or inferred presence and predictions from theory or conjecture. Scientists in the 1800's were able to infer a lot about the sub-atomic world from chemistry.
