- Consider equal volumes (say 1 L) of a given substance in the solid, liquid, and gas phases. Arrange them in order of decreasing mass based on the trend for the average substance. If the mass difference between samples is relatively small (10% or less), rank the items as equivalent. Rank from greatest to least mass. To rank items as equivalent, overlap them. • View Available Hint(s) Reset Help 1 L of substance in the solid phase 1L of substance in the gas phase 1L of substance in the liquid phase Greatest mass Least massarrow_forwardQuestion 2 A chemist observes that solid copper(Il) sulfate crystals do not pass through filter paper. The chemist mixes 2.5 g of the blue crystals with 2 L water to produce a clear, blue liquid. When filtered through filter paper, the filtered liquid retains the same blue color. How can these observations be explained? A Materials pass through filter paper only when the paper is wet. B. The copper sulfate crystals slide more easily through the filter paper when water is present. The copper sulfate reacts with water molecules to form a new substance that can pass through filter paper. Water acts as a solvent to break up copper sulfate into individual ions, which allows them to pass through the filter paper.arrow_forwardChoose the state of water in which the water molecules are farthest apart on average.
