Answer:

<em>8. When melting the energy of the ice cubes increases and when frezzing the energy of the water decreases.</em>

<em />

<em>9. When melting the otion of the particles speed up, when freezing the motion of the particles slow down.</em>

Explanation:

<em><u>8. The energy involved in the phase changes</u></em>

When an ice cube melts at 0ºC it must absorb or gain energy from the surroundings. This is an endothermic process, because the energy of the liquid water shall be higher than the energy of the starting ice cubes.

In conclusion, when melting the energy of the water increases.

On the other hand, when the liquid water freezes, also at 0ºC, the flow of heat energy is from the liquid water to the surroundings. This is an exothermic process because the water releases heat. At the end, the energy of the frozen water will be lower than the energy of the liquid water.

In conclusion, when freezing the enery of the water decreases.

<u><em>9. The motion of the particles of the substances during the phase changes</em></u>

<u><em /></u>

The particles of liquid substances are in constant motion, which is what allows them to flow. This is because the particles (molecules or atoms) are relatively distant from each other, with relatively low intermolecular forces.  Thus, they can slide on each other.

On the other hand, the solid substances have the particles in fixed position in structures called crystals. The particles vibrate but do not translation motion.

In conclusion, the difference is that the motion of the particles during melting increases and the motion of th particles during freezing decreases.

In the wintertime, you decide to buy a helium balloon at Dollar Tree. It is fully
Gemiola [76]

Answer:

The reason that the balloon shrinks is because when the temperature drops, helium becomes more dense then it already is. So what happens is that its molecules lose energy, slows down and moves closer together to conserve heat and this decreases the volume inside the balloon because the helium molecules are moving closer together, rather than outward toward the shell of the balloon which cause the balloon to swell then shrink. The gas law that causes this to happen is the Charles law.

Why do elements form compounds? What elements never form compounds and why?
Alja [10]

Answer:

Elements form compounds to satisfy the octet rule. Noble gasses never form compounds because they already satisfy the octet rule.

Explanation:

The octet Rule is the theory that an element will attempt to gain a valence of 8 by binding with another element in it's vicinity. This can happen in a variety of ways, but the main thing to remember is that they will take the "shortest path" to 8(I.e an element will sometimes lose an electron or 2 if it has a valence 1 or 2 to loop back around to 8, while an element with a valence of 6 or 7 will attempt to gain 2 or 1 electrons).

Valence of elements can be counted by group in the image attached.

Group 1 has a valence of 1, Group 2 has a valence of 2, then we move to group 13 which has a valence of 3, group 14 has a valence of 4, group 15 has a valence of 5, group 16 has 6, group 17 has 7, and group 18 is the noble gasses which have 8.
