Question
Chapter 2, Problem 45A
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation: The arrangement of individual particles in solids, liquids, and gases needs to be compared.
Concept Introduction: Substances that occupy space and have mass are said to be matter.
Expert Solution & Answer

Answer to Problem 45A
Three
- Solid: tightly packed particles.
- Liquid: particles are in close contact with each other and are free to flow past one another.
- Gas: particles in the gas matter are far apart from each other in comparison to solids and liquids.
Explanation of Solution
Three states of matter are solid, liquid and gas. Certain characteristics of solid, liquid, and gas are:
- Solid: The particles in the solid matter are packed tightly together and the arrangement of particles is regular which means they are orderly arranged. As a result, solids have a definite volume, and shape, and are incompressible.
- Liquid: The particles in the liquid matter are in close contact with each other and are free to flow past one another, thus, the arrangement of particles is irregular. As a result, the volume of the liquid is definite but takes up the shape of the container in which it is placed. Liquids are slightly compressible.
- Gas: The particles in the gas matter are in far apart from each other in comparison to solids and liquids, thus, the arrangement of particles is irregular. As a result, the gases can expand and take up the shape and volume of the container in which it is placed. Gases are highly compressible.

- b) Certain cyclic compounds are known to be conformationally similar to carbohydrates, although they are not themselves carbohydrates. One example is Compound C shown below, which could be imagined as adopting four possible conformations. In reality, however, only one of these is particularly stable. Circle the conformation you expect to be the most stable, and provide an explanation to justify your choice. For your explanation to be both convincing and correct, it must contain not only words, but also "cartoon" orbital drawings contrasting the four structures.
