<u>Answer: </u>The particles of gases are moving with a greater kinetic energy than the particles of liquid state.

<u>Explanation:</u>

In gaseous state, the particles are randomly arranged which means there is a lot of intermolecular spacing between them. This means that the particles are constant moving and have more kinetic energy.

In liquid state, the particles are arranged orderly as compared to the gaseous state which means that the intermolecular spacing between the particles is less than the gaseous state. This means that the particles have less kinetic energy.

We are given that the temperature is a measure of how much the atoms in a substance is moving and kinetic energy is the energy which is possessed by the virtue of the object's motion.

More the kinetic energy, high will be the temperature and vice-versa.

Hence, gaseous state has more kinetic energy and thus have higher temperature and therefore, the substance feels hotter.

Hey there!
In a gas state, particles have lots of energy, so they move around very rapidly, hitting each other and flowing around, that's why you see them moving so freely. Because they have so much energy, the substance is likely to be harder, as it can obtain more thermal energy, or heat.

A 250 watt electric bulb is lighted for 5 hours daily and four 6 watt bulbs are lighted for 4.5 hours daily. Calculate the energ
densk [106]

Answer:

38.024 KWh

Explanation

250 watts multiplied with 5 hours daily multiplied with 28 days monthly equals 35000 Watt hours. Divided by a 1000 to get the KWh equals 35 KWh.

= 250×5hrs× 28days

= 35000watts

= 35000/1000

= 35KWh

Four 6 watt lightbulbs equals 24 watts 4x6=24

Hence, 24×4.5hrs×30days

= 3024watts

= 3024/1000

= 3.024KWhr

The total amount of energy consumed in the month of February = 35 KWh + 3.024 KWh = 38.024 KWh

Note that I had to use 28days since we are considering the month of February.

An aluminum cup of 150 cm3 capacity is completely filled with glycerin at 23°C. How much glycerin will spill out of the cup if t
AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

1.19cm^3 of glycerine

Explanation:

Let Vo= 150cm^3 for both aluminum and glycerine, using expansion formula:

Volume of spill glycerine = change in volume of glycerine - change in volume of aluminum

Volume of glycerine = coefficient of volume expansion of glycerine * Vo* change in temperature - coefficient of volume expansion of Aluminum*Vo* change temperature

coefficient of volume expansion of aluminum = coefficient of linear expansion of aluminum*3 = 23*10^-6 * 3 = 0.69*10^-4 oC^-1

Change in temperature = 41-23 = 18oC

Volume of glycerine that spill = (5.1*10^-4) - (0.69*10^-4) (150*18) = 4.41*10^-4*2700 = 1.19cm3
