Why bond length in iodine gases is less than solid iodine?
many forces are present in gassious phase of iod ine like as inter molecular forces but in solid state there are only electrostatic forces of attraction between the atoms.
What factor is responsible for keeping the inner core in a solid state?
high presure and heat
Ice floats on a lake This characteristic of water is responsible for?
preventing a lake from freezing solid (correct answer)
Does a gas or solid have more potential energy?
A Gas has more potential energy due to the weak intermolecular forces that are apparent among gas molecules. Solid particles are very close to each other, thus more energy is needed to break the intermolecular forces among solid particles, hence a low potential energy.
Which are faster s waves and p waves or surface waves?
The fast is primary wave which travels through liguid, solid and gas. This how Geologist know the outer core is liquid. Secondary waves travel through only solid. The primary wave are the first to reach the seismograph.
Can only solid objects exert forces?
Is gravity a solid? Physical collisions of solid objects is not the only way that forces can act on solid objects.
What are forces between molecules in a solid called?
all such forces are intermolecular forces.
In which state forces of attraction are greatest in?
In solid state force of attraction are greatest
Are there strong forces of attractions between particles in a solid?
There are strong forces of attraction between particles in a solid.
Do forces between particles in a solid keep them from position?
Yes.. The forces of attraction
Is starch a liquid or a solid?
This creation reacts differently depending on the situation. I believe that starch is a solid-liquid.
Is dry ice an amorphous solid?
No, it is just Carbon dioxide in solid state (converted from gas directly to solid by sublimation). No ionic forces present. These are van der wall forces only.
How do the molecules of a solid differ from the molecules in a gas?
In solid, the molecules r tightly packed by intermolecular forces, but in gas these forces r very loose.
What are the forces that attract the molecules of a liquid to a different compound usually a solid are called?
These forces are called adhesion forces.
Why don't solid change shape?
The forces in the solid hold the atoms tightly in place Apex
What is the solid element responsible for clotting the blood?
Thrombocyte
When a solid is heated to its melting point what happens?
The intermolecular forces of attraction in the solid decreases as it is heated and the solid melts (solid converts to liquid) at its melting point.
