For questions #8 – 9 use the following pictures: A. B. C. 8. Which picture(s) would best represent atoms in the gas of a neon sign? Explain why. 9. Which picture(s) would best represent a rock? Explain why.

OpenStudy (austindeboe18):

Medal and fan will be rewarded

OpenStudy (austindeboe18):

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

in gasses, the molecules are far apart, and moving rapidly

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

rocks are formed of solid and rigid crystal lattices

OpenStudy (austindeboe18):

I know that but which images goes with what answers you just wrote

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

in which of the pictures, are the molecules (spheres), far apart?

OpenStudy (austindeboe18):

part b

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

yes, that option is the best, but that molecules (atoms) of neon should really all be the same colour

OpenStudy (austindeboe18):

okay well I got question 8 down. Now what image goes with question number 9

OpenStudy (austindeboe18):

would it be image part c

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

a lattice, is like a grid (3D), of atoms in rows and columns

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

yeah

OpenStudy (austindeboe18):

Thank you I finally got it

OpenStudy (jtfan2000):

#8 - A is the solid because they are close together. #9 - B is the liquid because they are moving around
