Answer:

Attractions between molecules cause a reduction in volume

Explanation:

This is a very important concept of the ideal gas law application. The ideal gas law applies when several conditions are met:

  • the size of individual atoms or molecules should be negligible, so that we may assume that the volume of the gas is equal to the volume of a container;
  • the attractions between individual atoms should also be negligible, so that on average the gas fills the whole container and the volume of a container would be equal to the volume of the gas.

Therefore, the ideal gas law applies best in scenarios where we have a high temperature and a low pressure (or large volume). The larger the volume gets, the more negligible is the size of a molecule compared to the size of a container.

Speaking of temperature, the greater the temperature, the higher the kinetic energy of the gas molecules, so that the average distances between them increase and the attraction forces are minimized.

However, having a low temperature would cause the molecules of a gas move slower and attraction forces would be more significant due to lower average distances between the molecules.

nikklg [1K]

Answer:

The correct answer is -  A. Each organ does part of a larger job.

Explanation:

An organ in an organ system of an individual organism is the group of similar tissues that collectively perform a common function in the organ system and play their part in a larger job.

A group of organs makes an organ system to perform a particular but large function in the organism for its survival. An example of the organ in an organ system is the heart in the cardiovascular system. The heart is an organ that pumps the blood out of the heart to the various part of the cardiovascular system such as lungs, arteries, and veins so it can take nutrients and oxygen to various parts carried by the blood.

Salsk061 [2.6K]
It is called exothermic reaction because it releases heat and light and it is called combustion reaction because it is reacting and is being oxidised by O2 to MgO. It can also be called as oxidation reaction since Mg is oxidised to MgO.
