Products such as antifreeze are composed of organic compounds that are classified as <em>alcohols</em>. (a)

Maybe those other classes of chemicals also lower the freezing temperature of water, just like alcohol does.  I don't know.  But alcohol is what's used to make anti-freeze.  I'm guessing alcohol must be cheaper, less toxic, and less corrosive inside the engines' cooling systems than any of that other stuff is.

What do we mean when we say that energy levels are quantized in atoms?
jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

Electrons are located in specific orbit corresponding to discrete energy levels

Explanation:

In Bohr's model of the atom, electron orbit the nucleus in specific levels, each of them corresponding to a specific energy. The electrons cannot be located in the space between two levels: this means that only some values of energy are possible for the electrons, so the energy levels are quantized.

A confirmation of Bohr's model is found in the spectrum of emission of gases. In fact, when an electron jumps from a higher energy level to a lower energy level, it emits a photon whose energy is exactly equal to the difference in energy between the two levels: since the energy levels are discrete, this means that the emitted photons cannot have any value of wavelength, but also their wavelength will appear as a discrete spectrum. This is exactly what it is observed in the spectrum of emission of gases.
