Interpretation Introduction

To predict the given photograph and illustrations of table salt, identify the depiction of matter at the macroscopic, microscopic, and/or particulate levels with explanation.

Interpretation:

Macroscopic, microscopic and particulate forms of matter are the three forms of matter.

Macroscopic can be viewed by the naked eyes, but we will be able to view microscopic form only by an optical microscope or electron microscope. Matter at the particulate level is so small that even with electron microscope it is really very difficult see them. Scientist use model to understand matter at particulate level. Models is representation of something

Concept introduction:

Answer to Problem 2.1TC

The art depicts a model of table salt at the particulate level. The photograph shows the macroscopic level

Explanation of Solution

Macroscopic, microscopic and particulate forms of matter are the three forms of matter.

Macroscopic can be viewed by the naked eyes, but we will be able to view microscopic form only by an optical microscope or electron microscope. Matter at the particulate level is so small that even with electron microscope it is really very difficult see them. Scientist use model to understand matter at particulate level. Models are representation of something. From the above statement we can say that the art depicts a model of table salt at the particulate level. The photograph shows at the macroscopic level

Conclusion

Thus the art depicts a model of table salt at the particulate level. The photograph shows the macroscopic level

1. Consider the following statement: Electric current is the consequence of the movement of charged particles. The chemist pours grains of solid NaCl into the gap between the wires. Based on the particulate representations attached in the 1st image, predict if the light bulb will glow with the addition of grains of solid sodium chloride to the container. Include reasoning that supports your prediction.   2. Shown in the second image are the melting points of four different ionic compounds and the particulate representation of NaCl. Draw particulate representations of MgO, NaI, and NaBr. Be sure to represent both the charges of the ions and their sizes in your drawings.   3. Use the particulate representations you have drawn and Coulomb's law to explain the trends in boiling point shown in the table.
Give an example of a mixture in which solute is solid and solvent is liquid.
Constant monitoring of acceptable concentrations of various dissolved substances is critical to keep our drinking water safe. In many areas, the drinking water standard for nitrate ions is 5.00 ppb.  Calculate the mass, in micrograms, of nitrate ions allowed in one 254 mL glass of tap water.   Record only your numerical answer with the correct number of significant digits.
