Elaborate on the reason(s) that matter is said to move even as in a solid state.
a) the particles are bound through intermolecular forces but are able to move past each other with relative freedom.
b) the particles have sufficient energy to become an ionized gas and are in the most common state of matter in the universe.
c) the particles are not able to move out of their positions relative to one another, but do have small vibrational movements.
d) the particles are not bound to one another, move quickly, have a low density, and are able to spread apart from one another if unconstrained.
brad and matt are working in the lab. they noticed that when they mixed two dilute solutions together, the reaction between them happened very slowly. which of matt's suggestions would best to increase the rate of this reaction?
a) increase the concentration of both solutions
b) decrease the concentration of both solutions
c) increase the concentration of one of the solutions
d) decrease the concentration of one of the solutions
identify the correct order of increasing intermolecular force of attraction for the three most common states of matter.
a) liquid → solid → gas
b) solid → liquid → gas
c) gas → liquid → solid
d) gas → solid → liquid
