Table salt, NaCl, is an example of an amorphous solid. TRUE FALSE

Chemistry

Answer:

False

Explanation:

Before answering the question, it is important to understand;

An amorphous solid is any noncrystalline solid in which the atoms and molecules are not organized in a definite lattice pattern. Such solids include glass, plastic, and gel. Emphasis on the word noncrystalline.

Table salt on the other hand is an ionic solid made up of Ions of opposite charges (Sodium ion and Chlorine ion) strongly attract each other; those of like charges repel. As a result ions in an ionic compound are arranged in a particular manner.

The ions in NaCl are ordered hence are referred to as crystalline solids  and not amorphous.

A gem has a mass of 4.50 g. When the gem is placed in a graduated cylinder 12.00 mL of water, the water level rises to 13.45 mL.
Mandarinka [93]
<span>Displaced volume :

</span>Final volume - <span>Initial volume

</span>13.45 mL - 12.00 mL => 1.45 mL

Mass =  4.50 g

Therefore:

density = mass / volume

D = 4.50 / 1.45

<span>D = 3.103 g/mL </span>

Three moles of helium gas (molar mass MM = 4.00 g/molg/mol) are in a rigid container that keeps the volume of the gas constant.
Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

The rms speed of the gas atoms after 3600 J of heat energy is added to the gas = 1150 m/s.

Explanation:

Mass of 3 moles of Helium = 3 moles × 4.00 g/mol = 12.00 g = 0.012 kg

The initial average kinetic energy of the helium atoms = (1/2)(m)(u²)

where u = initial rms speed of the gas = 850 m/s

Initial average kinetic energy of the gas = (1/2)(0.012)(850²) = 4335 J

Then, 3600 J is added to the gas,

New kinetic energy of the gas = 4335 + 3600 = 7935 J

New kinetic energy of Helium atoms = (1/2)(m)(v²)

where v = final rms speed of the gas = ?

7935 = (1/2)(0.012)(v²)

v² = (7935×2)/0.012

v² = 1,322,500

v = 1150 m/s

Hence, the rms speed of the gas atoms after 3600 J of heat energy is added to the gas = 1150 m/s.

Hope this Helps!!!

Titanium metal requires a photon with a minimum energy of 6.94×10⁻¹⁹J to emit electrons. What is the wavelength of this light? E
Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:2.86x10^-7m

Explanation:E=hc/^

E=6.94x10^-19J

c = 2.9979x10^8m/s

h= 6.626x10^-34Js

^ =( 6.626x10^-34)x( 2.9979x 10^8)/ 6.94x10^-19

= 2.86x10^-7m
