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.
![**Conversion Exercise: Converting Cubic Centimeters to Cubic Meters**
**Problem Statement:**
Convert \( 7.6 \, \text{cm}^3 \) to \( \text{m}^3 \).
**Interactive Conversion Tool Interface:**
1. **Starting Amount Section:**
- The user inputs the starting amount in cubic centimeters (cm³). In this example, the starting value is \( 7.6 \, \text{cm}^3 \). This value should be input in the "Starting Amount" area highlighted with a gray background.
2. **Conversion Factor Selection:**
- Conversion factors are listed on the left side:
- \((1000)^3\)
- \(0.01\)
- \((0.1)^3\)
- \(0.01^3\)
- \(0.076\)
- \((1)^3\)
- \(0.1\)
- \(1\)
- \(100\)
- \(1000\)
- \((100)^3\)
- These factors help in scaling the original measurement (in this case, cm³) to the target measurement (m³).
3. **Calculation Interface:**
- A multiplication box is provided next to the starting amount, signified by a multiplication sign (×) and parentheses.
- The user needs to input the appropriate conversion factor in these boxes to convert the starting \( 7.6 \, \text{cm}^3 \).
4. **Display Section for Intermediate and Final Results:**
- Below the calculation boxes, there are pre-defined conversion results that the user can select and verify. These include:
- \( 7.6 \times 10^{-4} \, \text{m}^3 \)
- \( 7.6 \)
- \(7.6 \times 10^{-6} \, \text{m} \)
- and others.
- The user needs to select the relevant box matching the appropriate unit, in this case, selecting the \( \text{m}^3 \) unit.
5. **Answer Submission:**
- The user can press the "=" button to calculate and display the final converted value.
- There is also a Reset button (↺) to clear inputs and start a new conversion.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2Fc25e6886-23a3-4870-9519-3bb0f78f33bc%2F7fb1ed4b-fb0e-4336-882d-e093a5b7c18c%2Fp79hxcf_processed.jpeg&w=3840&q=75)
