Water can exist in three states.
1) Solid State: Called Ice.
2) Liquid State: Called Liquid Water.
3) Gas State: Called Steam.
Remember:
The physical states of a matter depends upon the interactions between the particles of that substance. The interactions are very strong in solid state, strong in liquid state and very weak or negligible in gas state.
If you want to change the state from solid to liquid, or from liquid to gas you will have to provide energy in order to break the interactions between the molecules. Stronger the interactions, the more is energy required to break the interactions.
Water need more energy to convert from liquid to gas phase because hydrogen bond interactions are present among the molecules of water. And the hydrogen bonds are strong enough. Hence in order to break these interactions high energy is required.
Answer:
10
Explanation:
pH is defined as the negative logarithm of the concentration of hydrogen ions.
Thus,
pH = - log [H⁺]
Thus, from the formula, more the concentration of the hydrogen ions or more the acidic the solution is, the less is the pH value of the solution.
Thus, solution with pH = 3 will be more acidic than solution with pH =4
Thus, concentration of the [H⁺] when pH =3
3 = - log [H⁺]
[H⁺] = 10⁻³ M
For pH = 4, [H⁺] = 10⁻⁴ M
<u>hence, pH = 3 is 10 times more acidic than pH = 4</u>
Weathering is the process by which rocks are broken down by either physical or chemical means. Physical weathering involves physical factors that cause mechanical break down of rocks while chemical weathering involves chemical reactions between the contents of the rocks and other factors such air (oxygen). Agents of weathering are the factors that cause or enhance both physical and chemical weathering. Some of these factors cause both physical and chemical weathering these includes water and temperature.
Atomic number.
The atomic number is what defines the element.
Answer: Atoms are single neutral particles, and an ion is a positively or negatively charged particle.
