Take some water with a straw and put a few drops on plastic sheet. (a) What is the shape of the drop? (b) Move a drop around with your straw. Does the drop change? 2. Move one of the drops close to another one with your straw. What happens when two drops meet? 3. Put a small amount of one of the solids (salt, pepper, sugar, talcum powder) on one of the drops. Does the shape change? 4. Try this again with the other solids.

(a) BrF2+ (b) OCCl2 (c) CH3+ (d) SeCS (e) CH3arrow_forward• Density: In both solids and liquids, the molecules are held very closely together and therefore their densities are about the same. In gases, there is space between the molecules. • Molecular movement and order: The molecules in solids are arranged in a regular pattern that does not allow for diffusion, although does allow for vibrations. The arrangement of molecules in a liquid, although not completely random, is not completely fixed. Molecules in a gas are randomly arranged and move very quickly. Gases diffuse quickly in comparison to liquids. Compressibility and thermal expansion: Since the molecules in solids and liquids are already very close together, applying pressure does not greatly affect the volume. In contrast, the space between gas molecules allows for a great deal of compressibility. Although temperature changes will cause slight variations in the volume of a solid or liquid, those variations are negligible compared to the thermal expansion of a gas. Shape and…arrow_forward7. Identify as true (T) or false (F): All chemical particles exist in a constant state of random motion. In exothermic reactions, bonds in chemical particles generally become weaker. Matter can change its physical state with pressure alone, at a constant temperature. Dispersion forces work on only some chemical particles.arrow_forward
- part (ii) pleasearrow_forwardYour roommate, a history student, has stumbled across nitrogen trifluoride in their history textbook because it was used in the 1960s and 1970s as rocket fuel oxidizer. They remember learning about chemical reactions in Grade 11 and want to make nitrogen trifluoride using nitrogen gas and fluorine gas. Since you are a chemistry student, you have decided to help them remember how to construct the formula. Your other roommate, who is a mathematics student, wants to create a hypothetical situation so that the history student can better understand the concept. She writes down a mass for fluorine gas and nitrogen gas. 1. If she wrote that the mass of nitrogen gas as 114.6 g and the mass of fluorine gas as 354.8 g which is the limiting reagent in this case? 2. The mass of nitrogen trifluoride produced that she wrote is 469.4 g. What is the theoretical mass of nitrogen trifluoride produced calculated using the given masses? Is this higher or lower than the mass that she wrote? 3. If it is…arrow_forwardIs it acceptable to recycle the containers of hazardous chemicals? Why or why not?
