It is not possible for a solid substance to change directly to the gas phase true or false

Over the last 90 years, scientists have added to the body of evidence supporting the big bang theory. what is the latest piece of evidence discovered in 2014?

Cryolite, na3alf6(s), an ore used in the production of aluminum, can be synthesized using aluminum oxide. start this question by first balance the chemical equation.1.) balance the equation: - alo3(s)+naoh(l)+hf(> na3alf6+h2o(g). 2.) if 17.5 kilograms of al2o3(s), 51.4 kilograms of naoh(l), and 51.4 kilograms of hf(g) react completely, how many kilograms of cryolite will be produced? 3.)which reactants will be in excess, (al2o3, naoh, or hf) 4.)what is the total mass of the excess reactants left over after the reaction is complete in kg?

Suppose you mix one mole of sulfuric acid (h2so4) with 1 mole of sodium hydroxide(naoh). why does the ph of the solution remain below 7? ( explain so i can get better understanding! )
