<span>As a solid element melts, the atoms become <u>more separated</u> and they have <u>less</u> attraction for one another.
When a solid element starts melting, it means that it is using up a lot of energy it has stored. And when there is a lot of energy being used up, its particles are vibrating fast, and becoming more and more separated. So obviously, if these atoms are far from each other, they aren't going to attract.</span>

An ideal gas is in a sealed rigid container. The average kinetic energy of the gas molecules depends most on An ideal gas is in
sergejj [24]

Answer:

The temperature of the gas.

Explanation:

According to the kinetic molecular theory, the molecules of a substance are in constant random motion.

If an ideal gas is contained is a sealed rigid container, the average velocity of the gas molecules is dependent of the temperature of the gas.

Recall that temperature is defined as the average kinetic energy of the molecules of a body.

The following equilibrium is formed when copper and bromide ions are placed in a solution:
JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

A)

1. Reaction will shift rightwards towards the products.

2. It will turn green.

3. The solution will be cooler..

B) It will turn green.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, for the stated equilibrium:

heat + Cu(H_2O)_6 ^{+2} (blue) + 4Br^- \rightleftharpoons 6H_2O + CuBr_4^{-2} (green)

In such a way, by thinking out the Le Chatelier's principle, we can answer to each question:

A)

1. If potassium bromide, which adds bromide ions, is added more reactant is being added to the solution, therefore, the reaction will shift rightwards towards the products.

2. The formation of the green complex is favored, therefore, it will turn green.

3. The solution will be cooler as heat is converted into "cold" in order to reestablish equilibrium.

B) In this case, as the heat is a reactant, if more heat is added, more products will be formed, which implies that it will turn green.

Regards.

What happens to the potential energy of a book that is dropped from a desk to the floor?
Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

D.   It is converted into kinetic energy.

Explanation:

When a book is dropped from a desk to the floor, the potential energy of the book is converted to kinetic energy as it falls.

  • Potential energy of a body is the energy due to the position of the body.
  • At a particular height, the potential energy is maximum.
  • A body with mass and moving with velocity will have kinetic energy
  • As the book drops through the height, to conserve energy, the potential energy is converted to kinetic energy.

Explain how earth plates and lithosphere are related
AnnyKZ [126]

Crust, the upper layer of the Earth, is not always the same. Crust under the oceans is only about 5 km thick while continental crust can be up to 65 km thick. Also, ocean crust is made of denser minerals than continental crust.

The tectonic plates are made up of Earth’s crust and the upper part of the mantle layer underneath. Together the crust and upper mantle are called the lithosphere and they extend about 80 km deep. The lithosphere is broken into giant plates that fit around the globe like puzzle pieces. These puzzle pieces move a little bit each year as they slide on top of a somewhat fluid part of the mantle called the asthenosphere. All this moving rock can cause earthquakes.

The asthenosphere is ductile and can be pushed and deformed like silly putty in response to the warmth of the Earth. These rocks actually flow, moving in response to the stresses placed upon them by the churning motions of the deep interior of the Earth. The flowing asthenosphere carries the lithosphere of the Earth, including the continents, on its back.

Are there any vegetarian Italian Sausages?
Flura [38]
Yes, there are vegetarian italian sausages. One example is the Satanic sausage, which is prepared from dough, beans, spices, tomato, yeast, etc. But, yes, majority or I would say almost all of the Italian sausages are non-vegetarian sausages itselves.
