If the temperature of a liquid-vapor system at equilibrium increases, the new equilibrium condition will
nikdorinn [45]
If the temperature of a liquid-vapor system at equilibrium increases, it will shift towards the vapor phase, assuming that the pressure remains equal. The concentration of vapor will also increase relative to the concentration of liquid in the system. Thus, the new equilibrium condition will have more vapor than liquid.

What can you tell by tracking oxidation numbers?
Alla [95]

<u>Answer</u>:

By tracking oxidation numbers we can identify the number electron in the atom

<u>Explanation</u>:

Tracking of electrons helps us to know when and how many electrons get transferred from one atom to other atom . Oxidation  referred as the “loss of one or more electrons” by an atom. When the oxidation number of an element increases, there is a loss of electrons and that element is being oxidized. Oxidation numbers are usually written with the sign (+plus or −minus) followed by the magnitude, which is the opposite of charges on ions. In their elemental stage oxidation number of an atom is zero.

Why does liquid move like it does when heated on the right side?
lutik1710 [3]

Answer:Liquids expand for the same reason, but because the bonds between separate molecules are usually less tight they expand more than solids.

Explanation:Heat causes the molecules to move faster, (heat energy is converted to kinetic energy ) which means that the volume of a gas increases more than the volume of a solid or liquid.

sertanlavr [38]

Answer:

The answer to your question is:

a) 31.75 cm

b) 0.475 miles

c) 2.44 yards

d) 11496.04 inches

Explanation:

Convert

a)           12.5 in to cm

         1 in ------------------- 2.54 cm

       12.5 in ----------------    x

            x = 12.5(2.54)/1 = 31.75/ = 31.75 cm

b)          2513 ft to miles

           1 mile -------------- 5280 ft

           x miles ------------ 2513 ft

        x = 2513(1)/5280 = 0.475 miles

c) 2.23 m to yards

              1 m -------------   1,094 yards

            2.23 m ----------     x

       x= 2.23x1.094/1 = 2.44 yards

d)  292 m to inches

            1 m ---------------- 39.37 inches

          292 m -------------     x

    x = 292 x 39.37/1 = 11496.04 inches
