The 1st law of thermodynamics doesn't specify that matter can be created nor destroyed, but that the total amount of energy in a closed system cannot be created nor destroyed though it can be changed from one form to another.
They have a mass for the particles
There are no totally elastic collisions
There are intermolecular forces
Answer:
CH4 < CH3CH3 < CH3CH2CH3
Explanation:
Alkanes are saturated aliphatic hydrocarbons that undergoes intermolecular Van der waals forces. Van der waals forces are the attractive forces which make it possible for non-polar molecules to form liquids and solids.
Van der waals force are described as intermolecular forces arising from induced fluctuating dipoles in atoms and molecules brought about by movement of electrons around the atomic nucleus.
An example of the Van der waals force is the london dispersion force that occurs in the alkane family. It is the weakest of all electrical forces that act between atoms and molecules, These forces are responsible for liquefaction or solidification of non-polar substances at low temperature.
The strength of the intermolecular forces is based on the number of electrons surrounding the molecule and the surface area of the molecule. SO, in alkanes, the longer the carbon chain, the more stronger the intermolecular forces.
Hello!
Antifreeze says it in the name. This means that it helps prevent freezing. The liquid that would freeze if you wouldnt use the antifreeze is water. This means that the antifreeze has to have a higher freezing point then water, because otherwise it would only freeze faster!
Hope this helped you!
