How do the molecules of a gas behave?
loose
When does a photon behave like a wave and when does it behave like a particle?
Photons always behave somewhat like waves and somewhat like particles. We think of these as being basically different types of things, but on the subatomic scale, they blend into each other, and the distinction is lost.
Why are carbon based compounds lumped together as a separate subject within the study of chemistry?
Carbon-based compounds behave differently from compounds based on other elements.
How do acids behave in water solution?
it acts as a weak acid.
Polar molecules behave as though they?
Polar molecules have charges that non-polar molecules do not have. It is the reason why non-polar molecules can move through the lipid bilayer quicker than the polar molecules.
Do ionic compounds and molecular compounds behave similarly when they are dissolved?
Ionic compounds eg NaCl yield ions when dissolved in water, NaCl (in water) -> Na positive ions and negative Cl ions. Ions have electrical charges & conduct electricity. All compounds are "molecular", ie they are made up of more than one atom in combination. Some molecules are not ionic, eg common sugar, and when they are dissolved in water they do not yield ions and do not conduct electricity.
What determine how organic molecules will look and behave?
the form determines how the organic molecule will look and the shape will determine how the behave organic molecule reacts with other molecule
Does knowing that shes on tv change Katniss behave differnetly than she would otherwise in the hunger games?
Somewhat
What is plastic rock?
Plastic Rock is a rock that behaves something between a liquid and a solid, due to the amount of water in between the molecules.Water in between the molecules of the rock, makes it a somewhat liquid. When any pressure or push on the rock makes the water leave from the molecules, and makes it harder for the molecules to behave like a liquid, so, the rock becomes a solid.Information found from Exploring Creation with Physical Science by Dr. Jay L. Wile.
What decides how molecules behave?
Short Answer: Their Chemical properties; such as freezing point, melting point and boiling point.
What are Example of an ideal solution?
Almost all mixtures of gases at ordinary T and p are ideal solutions, since they behave like ideal gases. Liquid-state examples would be solutions of very closely related compounds, like ethanol and propanol, or hexane and heptane.
Why do molecules at the surface of a liquid behave differently from molecules in the interior of the liquid?
In the interior the intermolecular forces of attraction is equal in all directions but the molecules at the surface of liquid experiences unequal intermolecular forces of attraction. the molecules at the surface are free so the adsorb liquid or gaseous molecules
