What is a particulate solid?
A particle that has a fixed shape and doesn't flow
Why do solids have a regular geometrical shape?
solids have a regular geometrical shape . they have a tendency to maintain their shape when subjected to outside force. solids may break under force but it is difficult to change their shape.
What is the particle theory of salt and ice?
Salt will give ice the ability to get colder than freezing. It lowers the freezing point.
What word defines tansport protein that changes shape when a particle binds with it?
Carrier proteins
What non-metals can be bonded with metals to make salt?
The two elements that make the compound "salt", are sodium (metal) and chloride (non-metal). These two elements are bonded together to create sodium chloride as we call it "salt". Sodium particle-> O + O <-Chloride particle = Sodium chloride (salt).
Is a rock salt mixture or a compound?
mixture of rock particle and salt
Why we cannot see the salt particle when it is added to the water?
We cannot see the salt particle when it is added to the water because it dissolves
What are examples of substances that do not follow the particle model?
Salt
What shape do salt crystals have?
Table salt is cube shaped while epsom salt (type of salt) is prism shaped.
What is a particulate solid?
A particle that has a fixed shape and doesn't flow
What happens when an acid particle collides with an alkali particle?
After the chemical reaction, a salt is produced and water. For example: HCl (aq, acid) + NaOH (aq, alkaline) → H 2O (water) + NaCl (aq, salt)
Why do solids have a regular geometrical shape?
solids have a regular geometrical shape . they have a tendency to maintain their shape when subjected to outside force. solids may break under force but it is difficult to change their shape.
Why solid have a fixed shape?
solids always have a fixed shape because the particles in a solid are stuck together which means there is no where for the particle to move.
What is the particle theory of salt and ice?
Salt will give ice the ability to get colder than freezing. It lowers the freezing point.
What is the shape and particle motion and density of a solid?
Solid has -Defined Shape -Defined Volume The particle motion is as, they can vibrate, but they can't actually move from one place to another. The denisty is.. D=M/V Density = mass/volume
When do the salt have an indefinite shape?
When it is fine powdered.
What geometric shape does salt make?
A Cube
