Are chemical elements always liquid?

No, chemical elements can exist in different physical states such as solid, liquid, or gas depending on factors like temperature and pressure. For example, mercury is a liquid element at room temperature, while elements like oxygen and carbon can exist as gases.


Are all halogens gases at room temperature?

No, not all halogens are gases at room temperature. Fluorine and chlorine are gases at room temperature, bromine is a liquid, and iodine is a solid.


Which salt has a solubility curve which resembles the behavior of gasses in solution?

Ammonium chloride has a solubility curve that resembles the behavior of gases in solution, as its solubility decreases with increasing temperature. This is similar to how gases become less soluble in liquid as temperature increases.


How do gases like neon argon and helium form liquids?

At extremely high pressure and/or low temperature, elements that are normally a gas can become liquid.


Why does the solubility of gases increase in liquids on increassing the temperature?

Increasing the temperature of a liquid decreases the solubility of gases in that liquid. This is because higher temperatures disrupt the intermolecular forces between gas molecules and the liquid, allowing the gas molecules to escape into the atmosphere.


All gases become liquids when cooled to their what point?

All gases become liquids when cooled to their respective boiling points. At this temperature, the vapor pressure of the gas matches the external pressure, causing the gas to condense into a liquid state.


How is temperature related to the solubility of a solid solute Why?

At the molecular level, temperature is inversely proportional to solubility. As the temperature of a liquid increases, the solubility of gases in that liquid decreases.


What happens to the solubility of gases as the temperature increase?

solubility generally increases with a temperature increase


Which of the substances Butane Methanol Heptane and Iodine are gases at room temperature?

Butane and Methanol are gases at room temperature. Heptane is a liquid and iodine is a solid at room temperature.


What is exposing tissues to extreme cold in order to destroy tissues?

This procedure is called as cryosurgery. Gases in liquid state are used to for this purpose. Gases become liquid at extremely low temperature. Say about minus 180 degree Celsius in case of Oxygen. They kill the tissue by chilling it.


Do most gases become less soluble as the temperature goes up?

Yes, ALL gases are less soluble at higher temperature.


What 3 solids can become a liquid and a gas?

Every element can, but temperature depends on the element.
