A student places a piece of 12 (s) into 50.0 mL of H₂O (I), another piece of 12 (s) of the same mass into 50.0 mL of C6H14 (I), and shakes the mixtures. The results are shown to the right. What do the results indicate about the intermolecular interactions of the substances? 1₂(s) in H₂O(l) 1₂(s) Colorless Solution 1₂(s) in C6H₁4(!) Purple Solution 12 and H₂O have similar intermolecular interactions, and 1₂ and C6H₁4 do not. 12 and C6H₁4 have similar intermolecular interactions, and 12 and H₂O do not. 12, H₂O, and C6H1₁4 all have similar intermolecular interactions. 12, H₂O, and C6H14 have three completely different types of intermolecular interactions.
States of Matter
The substance that constitutes everything in the universe is known as matter. Matter comprises atoms which in turn are composed of electrons, protons, and neutrons. Different atoms combine together to give rise to molecules that act as a foundation for all kinds of substances. There are five states of matter based on their energies of attraction, namely solid, liquid, gases, plasma, and BEC (Bose-Einstein condensates).
Chemical Reactions and Equations
When a chemical species is transformed into another chemical species it is said to have undergone a chemical reaction. It consists of breaking existing bonds and forming new bonds by changing the position of electrons. These reactions are best explained using a chemical equation.
