Question
Chapter 21, Problem 55IAE
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The reason should be determined for a chemical which should exist as a crystalline solid seen to be a mixture of a liquid and solid in a container on a storeroom shelf along with whether the chemical is discarded or can use for some purposes.
Concept introduction:
A chemical compound is said to be hygroscopic in nature if it can readily attract from its surroundings through the process of absorption or adsorption.

• Density: In both solids and liquids, the molecules are held very closely together and therefore their densities are about the same. In gases, there is space
between the molecules.
• Molecular movement and order: The molecules in solids are arranged in a regular pattern that does not allow for diffusion, although does allow for
vibrations. The arrangement of molecules in a liquid, although not completely random, is not completely fixed. Molecules in a gas are randomly arranged and
move very quickly. Gases diffuse quickly in comparison to liquids.
Compressibility and thermal expansion: Since the molecules in solids and liquids are already very close together, applying pressure does not greatly
affect the volume. In contrast, the space between gas molecules allows for a great deal of compressibility. Although temperature changes will cause slight
variations in the volume of a solid or liquid, those variations are negligible compared to the thermal expansion of a gas.

1. Water appears in nature in all three common states of matter. Water is a tasteless, odorless liquid at standard temperature and pressure.
2. Â The addition of salt in the distilling mixture made the water impure and saline. The addition of 5 drops of the silver nitrate solution into the distillate determines whether the distillate is impure or pure water.
3. The ideal electrical conductivity of totally pure water is 0.055 microSiemens, whereas typical deionized water has an electrical conductivity of 0.1 microSiemens. The freezing point of water at 1 atm is 100degC.Â
4.  From the air, oxygen can slowly diffuse across the water’s surface from the surrounding atmosphere, or be mixed in quickly through aeration, whether natural or man-made. The aeration of water can be caused by wind (creating waves),…
