Step 1

Question 8-

in solids the internuclear force is very strong and internuclear separation is very small in comparison of liquid and gases so, due to small internuclear separation atoms holds very tightly with each other. hence, we can say that atoms moves fastest in gases, slower in liquids and rigidly connected in solids.

option a is correct. atoms moves fastest in gases, slower in liquids and rigidly connected in solids.

Question 9-

Two atoms of the same element consist of the same atomic number that is number of protons or electrons and different mass number that is number of neutrons. This variation or change in the number of neutrons in an atom gives rise to different isotopes of an element.

For example- Hydrogen ( H¹), Deuterium (D¹), Tritium (T³) .

option C is correct. always have the same number of electrons and protons.
