The options in the question are as follows

a. The motion of particles becomes random.

b. The motion of the particles is unchanged.

c. The particles move with more force.

d. The particles decrease in speed.

Answer:

The particles decrease in speed.

Explanation:

In a gas at room temperature, the particles of the gas move at a very high speed and in a random manner. A gas has no definite volume and it is also assumed that there is minimal interaction between gas particles. Recall that temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles of a system. As the temperature is decreased and heat is withdrawn as the CO2 approaches freezing temperature, the speed and kinetic energy of the particles decreases and significant interaction between particles is observed. Hence the CO2 particles slow down.

CO2 is carbon dioxide which is most famous for being in gas form so i would figure if it was exposed to freezing temperatures it would turn into a liquid then maybe a solid<span />

dusya [7]
The amount of the two reactants are the same when conductivity is low. There are no excess between the reactants. The precipitate BaSO4 is insoluble in the aqueous solution. Therefore, there are no ions which makes the conductivity at minimum.

What does the kinetic theory state about the kinetic energy of gas molecules? A. The kinetic energy of gas molecules is inversel
STatiana [176]

Answer: option B. The kinetic energy of gas molecules is directly proportional to the Kelvin temperature of the gas.


Explanation:


The kinetic theory of gases explains the behavior and properties of gases from a molecular perspective.


Specifically and explicity, the kinetic theory of gases states that gases are constituted by particles (molecules) and that the average kinetic energy of the particles is proportional to the absolute temperature (Kelvin scale) of the gas. Furthermore, the temperature of all the (ideal) gases is the same at a given temperature.


Hence, you know that the higher the temperature of the gas, the higher the kinetic energy and the average speed of the molecules.


Other postulates of the kinetic theory of gases are that: i) the volume of the particles is neglectible; ii) the particles do not exhibit intermolecular attraction or repulsion; iii) the particles are in continuous random motion in straight paths, until they collide with other particles or the walls of the vessel, and iv) the collisions are elastic (the energy is conserved).

As you move from ___________ to ____________ on the periodic table, the atomic radius of the atoms increase.
shtirl [24]
Therefore, moving left to right across a period the nucleus has a greater pull on the outer electrons and the atomic radii decreases. Moving down a group in the periodic table, the number of filled electron shells increases

A runner averages 8 minutes and 25 seconds per mile. What is her average velocity in miles per hour?
labwork [276]

8 minutes and 25 seconds is the same as 8.25 in decimal form.

Divide by 60 minutes.

60 / 8.25 = 7.27 miles per hour

Best of Luck!

An aqueous nacl solution is made using 112 g of nacl diluted to a total solution volume of 1.00 l. calculate the molarity, molal
worty [1.4K]
Q1)
molarity is defined as the number of moles of solute in 1 L of solution.
the NaCl solution volume is 1.00 L
number of moles NaCl  = NaCl mass present / molar mass of NaCl 
NaCl moles = 112 g / 58.5 g/mol = 1.91 mol 
the number of moles of NaCl in 1.00 L of solution is - 1.91 mol 
therefore molarity of NaCl is 1.91 M

Q2) 
molality is defined as the number of moles of solute in 1 kg of solvent.
density is mass per volume. 
density of the solution is 1.08 g/mL. 
therefore mass of the solution is = density x volume 
mass = 1.08 g/mL x 1000 mL = 1080 g
since we have to find the moles in 1 kg of solvent 
mass of solvent = 1080 g - 112 g = 968 g
number of moles of NaCl in 968 g of solvent - 1.91 mol 
therefore number of NaCl moles in 1000 g - (1.91 mol / 968 g) x 1000 g/kg = 1.97 mol/kg
molality of NaCl solution is 1.97 mol/kg


Q3) 
mass percentage is the percentage of mass of solute by total mass of the solution 
mass percentage of solution = mass of solute / total mass of the solution 
mass of solute = 112 g
total mass of solution = 1080 g
mass % of NaCl = 112 g / 1080 g x 100%
therefore mass % of NaCl = 10.4 %
answer is 10.4 %
