Elaborate the reason that the heat of vaporization of water is so much greater than its heat of fusion. A) The potential energy

of fusion represents a greater change of stored energy. B) Liquid water is stabilized by strong intermolecular forces between the molecules. C) The kinetic energy of the water molecules is so much greater in the liquid state. D) The bonding forces for solid water are much stronger than the bonding in the liquid.

I believe the answer is B. Liquid water is stabilized by strong inter-molecular forces between the molecules. This is why the energy needed to completely  separate the molecules converting to gas is much greater than that of converting a solid into liquid. The latent heat of vaporization will have to be higher for the liquid to become a gas.

10.Which device is designed to produce
andreev551 [17]

Which device is designed to produce mechanical energy?

Well, mechanical energy is the sum of potential and kinetic energy. Kinetic energy is a unit of energy in which is the reason why an object does movement, while potential energy is another unit of energy in which is the reason why an object doesn't move, or stops. While you can stop a fan or a lamp, it isn't automatic. It's manually. So the answer is (4) an oven because mechanical energy happens automatically, not manually, or for a greater reason.

A chemist adds 405.0mL of a 0.79M sodium carbonate solution to a reaction flask. Calculate the millimoles of sodium carbonate th
Sophie [7]

Answer:

320 mmol

Explanation:

405.0 mL * 1L/1000 mL = 0.4050 L

0.79 M = 0.79 mol/L

0.79 mol/L * 0.4050 L=0.32 mol

0.32 mol * 10^3 mmol/1 mol = 320 mmol

What is a naturally occurring, solid mass of mineral or mineral-like matter?
Firdavs [7]

Rock is a combination of two or more minerals, and it does not possess any specific chemical composition. It is present naturally in the environment. Some examples of rocks are limestone, granite, etc.,Limestone may contain minerals like calcite and aragonite. Each mineral has a specific chemical composition with a well defined crystalline structure.

Therefore, the correct option would be a. rock as rock is the naturally occurring  solid mass made up of different types of minerals.

Which stament about energy is mostly correct
klasskru [66]
I would say C is the most correct. 
In D it depends on what water source you're using. Let's say it is a waterfall, then the source of the water (melting ice or a lake) may disappear in the future. 
If you're using underwater "windmills" placed in the ocean, then you would expect it to last a while as the ocean will not disappear in the near future.
