Aqueous solutions of isopropyl alcohol are commonly sold as rubbing alcohol. The boiling point of isopropyl alcohol is 82.4 °C.

It evaporates readily from the surface of the skin. Ethylene glycol (CH2OHCH2OH) is sold as antifreeze/antiboil. The boiling point of ethylene glycol is 198 °C. The molecular masses of isopropyl alcohol and ethylene glycol are similar. Provide an explanation for the observed difference in their boiling points.

Answer:

This is due to more hydrogen bonding in ethylene glycol than it is in isopropyl alcohol

Explanation:

The boiling point of isopropyl alcohol is 82.4 °C it contains only a single OH group, hence intermolecular hydrogen bonding is solely responsible for it's boiling point, whereas Ethylene glycol (CH2OHCH2OH) contains 2-OH group and both intermolecular and intramolecular hydrogen bonding are responsible for the higher boiling point of ethylene glycol at 198 °C.

Which type of energy change causes a <br> leaf to grow
Leviafan [203]

Electromagnetic energy

Explanation:

Growth is one of the characteristics of living things. It refers to the increase of an organism. A leaf is part of a plant, which is a photosynthetic organism i.e. an organism capable of producing its own food using energy from sunlight. Light energy is a part of the ELECTROMAGNETIC ENERGY.

This light energy is used to synthesize glucose (food) via photosynthesis. The glucose, which stores chemical energy in its bond is then broken down to yield ATP used for growth. Hence, the transformation of electromagnetic energy to light energy is how a leaf grow.

stira [4]
Fire expends ENERGY which is a by-product of conversion of matter. 

<span>The calories or therms of a fire equal a certain amount of mass. </span>

<span>When MATTER (Electron) and ANTI-MATTER (Positron) collide they don't inhillate each other with nothingness, they always realse TWO gamma particles. </span>

<span>The ENERGY of the TWO gamma particles CONSERVES the MASS of the ELECTRON and The POSITRON </span>

<span>This is what Einstein meant by E=mc2 </span>

<span>ENERGY has physical properties than can be measured. </span>

<span>These properties equal the mass that no longer exists after you measure the mass BEFORE and AFTER </span>

<span>The AFTER MASS + the ENERGY MUST equal the BEFORE MASS to at least 99.999% </span>

<span>You must take heat, light and other PARTICLES into consideration. </span>

<span>Their MASS plus their ENERGY</span>
