what are the similarities and differences between the gas properties and kinetic molecular theory postulates?

1 answer:

3 0

The Kinetic Molecular Theory Postulates state that gases are made up of a larger number of particles, which, behave like hard, spherical objects that move in constant and random motion. Moreover, the particles move straight until they collide with other particles or walls in the containers, the particles are also smaller than the distance between them making the volume of gasses mostly empty space. There are also no attractive forces between the particles or between the particles or between the particles and the walls of the container. Lastly, the average kinetic energy of gas particles depends on the temperature of the gas alone.

In the other hand, the properties of gasses are that a gas has no define volume or shape, gasses also have low densities and all behave the same even in changes with temperature and pressure by expanding or contracting depending on the change.

Answer: The correct answer is Option 1.

Explanation:

Control group is the group used in the experiment by the researchers in which no change in the variable is done. It is then set as a benchmark for the groups which are being tested.

We are given 4 groups which are being experimented for the flotation of an egg in water. As in Cup 1, there is no addition of salt and hence there is no change in the variables. So, this is set as a benchmark fro the cups which are further used in the experiment conducted.

Hence, the correct answer is Option 1.

Why don't we discuss the results during the results section of the project?

snow_tiger [21]

Answer: The result section of the project contains your findings while carrying out your research or study.

Explanation:

The Results section of a research or study usually contains only the findings of your study or research.The findings which usually include

1. Data presented in tables, charts, graphs, and other figures.

2. A contextual analysis of this data explaining its meanings. Usually in sentences.

Our result gotten is not discussed in result section because every project or research work has a discussion page where every results or findings are discussed. The result section is expected to carry what you found.

When pure methanol is mixed with water the resulting solution feels warm would you expect this solution to be ideal?Explain

Pepsi [2]

Answer:

Explanation:

In ideal solutions, the interactions between solute - solvent are approximately the same as those of solute - solute and solvent - solvent, that is the interactions are to be practically indistintiguishable after disolution.

The moment we have a release of energy (the solution feels warm) we are to conclude that there are strong interactions between the water and methanol molecules so we would expect the solution to be non ideal.

The reason for the interactions is the presence of hydrogen bonds between methanol and water.
