Q. 3.76 - An Introduction to General, Organic, and Biological Chemistry

Question

Identify each of the following as solid., liquid, of gas: $\left(3.2\right)$

a. popcorn ant a bag

b. water in a garden hose

c. a computer mouse

d. air in a tire

e. hot tea in a teacup

Step-by-Step Solution

Answer

The three fundamental forms of matter are solids, liquids, and gases. It, like everything else in the world, takes up space. A solid maintains its shape, but a liquid picks up the shape of the mold and is dissolved by a gas.

(part a) popcorn ant a bag - Solid.

(part b) water in a garden hose - Liquid.

(part c) a computer mouse - Solid.

(part d) air in a tire - Gas.

(part e) hot tea in a teacup - Liquid.

Step 1: Given information (part a).

One of the four basic properties of matter is concrete. Solid molecules have a high density and  the lowest angular momentum. The consequences and susceptibility to stress applied to the edges of a solid are characteristic of the solid.

Step 2: Explanation (part a).

popcorn ant a bag - Solid.

Step 3: Given information (part b).

A medication's innate willingness to pour, with little or no urge to disseminate and high interning Fluidity, solubility, and liquidness are counterparts.

Step 4: Explanation (part b).

water in a garden hose - Liquid.

Step 5: Given information (part c).

One of the four basic properties of matter is concrete. Solid molecules have a high density and  the lowest angular momentum. The consequences and susceptibility to stress applied to the edges of a solid are characteristic of the solid.

Step 6: Explanation (part c).

a computer mouse - Solid.

Step 7: Given information (part d).

Even under the influence of attraction and irrelevant of the solute in the receptacle, a cloud is a heterogeneous material that forms the bulk of the container in which it is confined and gains a compact structure inside the canister.

Step 8: Explanation (part d).

air in a tire - Gas

Step 9: Given information (part e).

A medication's innate willingness to pour, with little or no urge to disseminate and high interning Fluidity, solubility, and liquidness are counterparts.

Step 10: Explanation (part e).

hot tea in a teacup - Liquid.
