Gases, liquids and solids are all made up of atoms, molecules, and/or ions, but the behaviors of these particles differ in the three phases. The following figure illustrates the microscopic differences.

Microscopic view of a gas Microscopic view of a liquid. Microscopic view of a solid.
Microscopic view of a gas. Microscopic view of a liquid. Microscopic view of a solid.
Note that:

Particles in a:
gas are well separated with no regular arrangement.
liquid are close together with no regular arrangement.
solid are tightly packed, usually in a regular pattern.
Particles in a:
gas vibrate and move freely at high speeds.
liquid vibrate, move about, and slide past each other.
solid vibrate (jiggle) but generally do not move from place to place.
Liquids and solids are often referred to as condensed phases because the particles are very close together.
The following table summarizes properties of gases, liquids, and solids and identifies the microscopic behavior responsible for each property.

What do the different colors in a line spectrum represent? why are the spectra for each element unique?
Lana71 [14]
They typically represents different wavelengths of element due to its energy emission in the form of visible light. When an electron of that particular element move from a higher energy level down to a lower energy level, it gives off energy in the form of photon emission. Atom of a certain element has a unique electron arrangement thus it can considered that particular element's spectrum is unique.

Which of the following statements is false? Group of answer choices Light that is high in energy has a high frequency. The atomi
MArishka [77]

Answer:

The last statement is false.

Explanation:

Photons (Electromagnetic radiation) are released when electrons drop from a higher energy lever to a lower energy level. Therefore the opposite insinuated by the last statement is wrong.

A 75kg man climbs the stairs to the fifth floor of a building. A total hieght of 16m. His potential energy has increased by
yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

11760 joules

Explanation:

Given

Mass (m) = 75kg

Height (h) = 16m

Required

Determine the increment in potential energy (PE)

This is calculated as thus:

PE = mgh

Where g = 9.8m/s²

Substitute values for m, g and h.

P.E = 75 * 9.8 * 16

P.E = 11760 joules
