3

Why do amorphous solids not have a long-range order in the arrangement of their particles?

A
Their formation involves very rapid cooling.
B
They do not have enough particles.
C
Their particles eventually change positions.

4

Which is a postulate of the kinetic-molecular theory?

A
Gas particles have a small volume relative to the spaces between them.
B
Gas particles have a large volume relative to the spaces between them.
C
Gas particles are very small in size and always move slowly.
D

5

A substance conducts an electric current when it is in the liquid state. What would the conductivity of the substance in solid form indicate about the type of bond in the substance?

A
If the solid is conductive, the bonds are ionic.
B
If the solid is not conductive, the bonds are covalent.
C
If the solid is conductive, the bonds are metallic.
D
If the solid is not conductive, the bonds are metallic.
6

The diagrams show gases that are stored in two separate but similar containers.If both gases are at the same temperature, which one has the greater pressure?

Question illustration
A
gas 1 because the particles are moving much faster
B
gas 1 because it has fewer particles that are close together
C
gas 2 because it has more particles that are colliding
D
gas 2 because the particles have more space between them
