They are compressed so that a larger amount of gas can be stored in a smaller container. A greater mass confined to a smaller volume makes transporting and storing of gases easier. Increasing temperature increases pressure, and the cylinders might explode. Before compressed oxygen can be breathed, it must be decompressed.
Answer:
Open spaces in water's solid structure makes its solid state less dense than its liquid state.
Explanation:
- Water unlike other liquids is special. It contracts when cooled, down to a temperature of 4°C but thereafter begins to expand as it reaches 0°C and turns into ice.
- This property is useful for the preservation of marine life in very cold temperatures. During winter, the surface water in water lakes and rivers starts cooling. Upon reaching the temperature of 4°C, the surface water descends to the bottom as it denser.
- This help in the maintenance of temperature of the water at the bottom at 4°C. It is in this layer that marine life is sustained.
Answer:
The higher the temperature, the more soluble most ionic solids are in water
As you cool a saturated solution from high temperature to low temperature, solids start to crystallize out of solution if you achieve a supersaturated solution.
If you raise the temperature of a saturated solution, you can (usually) add more solute and make the solution even more concentrated.
Explanation:
For many ionic solids, solubility in water increases with increase in the temperature of the solution.
This implies that increasing the temperature allow more solute to dissolve in the solvent, supersaturation may be achieved by so doing. As the solution is cooled, the solid crystalizes out of solution hence the answers above.
