Four students describe the characteristics of four different states of matter. The table below shows the description given
Question:
Answers
Option (A) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
In solids, particles are attracted towards each other by strong intermolecular forces and they do not have enough gap between them. Therefore, they are orderly arranged.
In liquids, though the particles are close and touch each other but there are gaps between their arrangement. Therefore, they are randomly arranged as the forces of attraction are not strong enough like in solids.
In gases, particles are weakly attracted towards each other and they constantly moves from one place to another.
In plasma, there are charged particles which have similar number of positively charged ions and negatively charged electrons.
Thus, we can conclude that out of the given options, student A described liquids.
A.
Explanation:
Liquid particles are close enough but not too tightly packed like solids.
Solid particles are tightly packed so that they can't move.
Gas particles move randomly.
They constantly collide with each other. This type of motion is called Brownian Movement.
Student A described liquids because liquids are close together and randomly arranged
the correct answer would be b. amelia, because the particals of gas move really fast (charged particals) and gas also has a lot of room (particals move independently) so the only answer that has both of those is amelia's.
Amelia I believe because she was by herself
C. definite shape, definite volume. that is a solid.
Student A described liquids.
