When pressure is added to a gas the molecules bounce around really fast and push against the walls of its container. That's why when you squeeze an empty water bottle you can crush it all the way. The smaller the container the more the molecules hit the walls faster and that's what creates pressure. While moving around the molecules get hot as they speed up. Heat = Pressure.

Answer:

“The kinetic energy of gas particles is higher in hot food than in cold food.”  

Explanation:

One of the properties responsible for this is “The kinetic energy of gas particles is higher in hot food than in cold food.”  

Remembering that kinetic energy is related to the speed or speed in the movement of particles or molecules, you can start by saying that foods are made up of molecules. The higher the temperature of these foods, the faster the molecules move. If the molecules move fast enough, they detach from food and move in the air. Our noses absorb those molecules, and from that we smell that food. Hot food, as mentioned, has faster molecules, so they come off faster and there is more in the air. Then we can smell that food faster than the cold food molecules.

This process is called diffusion. Diffusion is a process in which particles are introduced into a medium that was initially absent from them, that is, the gradual mixing of the molecules of one gas with the molecules of another, by virtue of their kinetic properties. In this case the particles or molecules of the food are mixed with the particles present in the air, in order to reach our noses and you can feel their smell

What is the molar mass of CaCl2?
Aleks04 [339]

Answer: The molar mass of the given compound is 1.11\times 10^2 g/mol

Explanation:

In molecular formula of CaCl_2 there are two chlorine atoms and one calcium atom.

The atomic mass of the calcium = 40.07 g/mol

The atomic mass of chlorine = 35.5 g/mol

Molar mass of the guven compound is :

40.07 g/mol + 2\times 35.5 g/mol=111.07 g/mol\approx 1.11\times 10^2 g/mol

The molar mass of the given compound is 1.11\times 10^2 g/mol

How many moles of h2o are produced when 3.25 moles of o2 react in 2c2h6 + 7o2 ---> 4co2 + 6h2o
Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

2.78 moles of water are produced.

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of moles of H₂O produced = ?

Number of moles of oxygen react = 3.25 mol

Solution:

Chemical equation:

2C₂H₆ + 7O₂       →     4CO₂ + 6H₂O

Now we will compare the moles of water with oxygen.

                O₂          :          H₂O

                 7            :           6

               3.25        :           6/7×3.25 = 2.78 mol

Look up and record the boiling point of acetic acid, and explain why only some of it evaporates from the reaction mixture.
REY [17]

Answer:

Heating the mixture to a temperature above the boiling point of acetic acid, but below 100°C (the boiling point of water). The vapours from the acetic acid rise, and go into a tube. They are then condensed within the tube, and run off into a separate storage area. Because water can exist as a gas at pretty much any temperature above 0°C, it will result in an impure mixture, but repeatedly doing this will get the acetic acid to the desired purity.
