The correct answers are given below.
(a). The solids and gases can be distinguished as follows, based on the given parameters.
(i). The average distance between particles in a substance is referred to as the interparticle distance.
- Since gas molecules are loosely packed compared to solid molecules, the interparticle distance is higher for gases than for solids.
(ii). The attraction between a substance's particles is known as the interparticle force of attraction.
- Because solid particle packing is more dense than that of gas particle packing, solids exhibit greater interparticle forces of attraction than gases.
(iii). Compressibility is a substance's capacity to have its volume or size reduced when pressure is applied.
- Solids cannot be compressed.
- A gas is easily compressible due to the void areas between its molecules.
(b). The two factors that determine the rate of diffusion of a liquid into another liquid are temperature and density.
- While it is inversely proportional to liquid density, the rate of diffusion is directly correlated with temperature.
- When the rate of diffusion increases, temperature also increases and density decreases and vice versa.
