How can glass be a liquid if it's so hard?

Make it in an outline form not paragraph. Use your own words at least 100 words.

Expert Solution

Scientists specifies to any amorphous solid as a "glass". Glass transitions are known as highly complex which means, they cannot be treated in the same way as traditional phase transitions. One drink of alcohol is quite enoguht to affect your brain, whether you are an alcoholic or a casual social drinker. Alcohol is a psychoactive drug that interferes directly with the normal functioning of many parts of the brain. Fortunately, much of the effect caused by alcohol consumption can be repaired by the body when the person stops drinking.

Glass is not a liquid in the strictest sense of the word. However, it is also not a standard solid. The chemistry of glass is complex and research is ongoing, but the present consensus is that glass is a phase of matter all its own, which is called an "amorphous solid"

When liquid water is poured onto a flat plate of glass, it spreads out, while liquid mercury forms spherical beads under similar circumstances. Explain the difference in behavior of the two liquids by filling in the blanks in the following statements: The attractions between the water molecules and the glass are _____ than the attractions among the water molecules themselves, so the water spreads out. The attractions among the mercury atoms are _______ than the attractions between the mercury atoms...

6. Sometimes it's hard to tell which thing is the solvent and which the solute – for example you can make mixtures of water and methanol at any proportion. Fortunately, Raoult's law doesn't care which thing you call the solvent or solute; at a given temperature, both things have vapor pressures that fit the equation PA = ΧA PA0 - where the right-hand side of the equation is the mole fraction times the pure liquid vapor pressure at that temperature....

Solid HgO, liquid Hg, and gaseous O2 are placed in a glass bulb and the reaction below is allowed to reach equilibrium. 2HgO(s) 2Hg(l) + O2(g); ΔH = +181.6 kJ With the system at equilibrium, the amount of Hg(l) in the bulb can be increased- A) by removing some HgO(s). B) by adding an inert gas. C) by adding some HgO(s). D) by increasing the pressure. E) by increasing the temperature.

A vertical glass tube of length L = 1.280000 m is half filled with a liquid at 20.000 000 degrees C. How much will the height of the liquid column change when the tube and liquid are heated to 30.000000 degrees C? Use coefficients alpha_glass = 1.000 000 x 10^-5/K and Beta_liquid = 4.000 000 x 10^-5/K

Ice cubes at 0 c are poured into a glass that contains 150 g of liquid water at 20 c. The contents of the glass are gently stirred and after short time the ice melts and the liquid cools to 0 c. No appreciable heat exchange with the environment takes place. a) calculate the entropy change of the universe (system plus environment) during the process. Cp=Cv = 4.18 kj/kgK b)if the same process were performed reversibly, how much useful work...
