Un gas puede condensarse al disminuir su temperatura?
myrzilka [38]

Answer:

Si.

Explicación:

Sí, un gas se puede condensar cuando su temperatura disminuye porque cuando la temperatura del área circundante del gas disminuye, se produce una condensación que cambia el estado de la materia i. mi. de gas a estado líquido. La principal razón de esta condensación es la aproximación de moléculas de gas que están muy alejadas unas de otras. Con una temperatura más baja, el volumen disminuye y las moléculas de gas se combinan para formar un líquido.

Lorico [155]
Since there are a dominant and a recessive character, therefore, this is a case of Mendelian characters. There are some possibilities

1- Dominant pure SS is crossed with dominant pure SS, all the generation will be dominant.

2- Dominant Pure SS is crossed with recessive ss, aal the first generation will be dominant phenotype and impure genotype (Ss). The second generation will be 3 dominant: 1 recessive. The 3 dominant in the second generation will be 1 pure SS and two impure Ss.

3- Dominant Impure with recessive, the first generation will be 1 dominant impure : 1 recessive.

4- Recessive with recessive, the generation will be all recessive.

Water is denser than isopropanol, so the water layer will always be below the isopropanol layer if they are both in the same con
eduard

Answer:

One is polar and the other is non-polar.

Explanation:

The makeup of both water and isopropanol is different from each other due to their polar nature. Water is a polar substance means that it makes poles i.e. positive or negative while on the other hand, isopropanol is non-polar substance so due to this reason water and isopropanol make different layers. If both are polar or nonpolar substances so they will able to mix with each other.
