For a solid to melt, it must first enough heat. this increases the space between its particles, which results in them experiencing a force of attraction to surrounding particles. a. lose; stronger b. absorb; weaker c. lose; weaker d. absorb; stronger

The answer should be B.

When a solid needs to melt, it must absorb enough heat for first, to raise the temperature, and second, to break the bonding. That's why the particles will have a weaker force of attraction to each other. In liquid, the particles will be more free comparing to solid. This type of heat required is called latent heat in specific. It's the heat required to break bonds, or attract bonds when cooling down.

Note that different materials has different specific latent heat for both melting (including freezing) and condensing (including melting).

Answerthis solution will not form a precipitateexplanationsolubility equilbrium:         pbf₂(s)  ⇄ pb²⁺(aq) + 2 f⁻(aq)the solubility product expression is    (we exclude solids from the equilibrium expression).now suppose we have the trial ion product q, which we can define as    then, we can interpret  q as the product of the concentration of the ions that we have and ksp as the product of the ion concentrations that are needed to form a saturated solution.if q > ksp, then that implies that there will be a surplus of ions that exceed the amount that is required to form a saturated solution. a precipitate will then form (the precipitate continually  forms until the surplus ions are removed and q is decreased to ksp's value).if q = ksp, the saturated solution that forms is barely saturated and the precipitate will be minimal.if q < ksp, then the ion concentration will not be enough to form a saturated solution (so no precipitate).using our information, we calculate the trial ion product:     since q = 2.7  × 10⁻⁸ < ksp =  4  ×  10⁻⁸, a precipitate will not form.
