Why does sound travel faster in warm air

Chemistry
2 answers:
xz_007 [3.2K]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Warm or hot air particles have more energy than that of cool air. As a result they move faster than cool air particles. Since sound propogation involves movement or vibration of particles, sound travels faster in warm air

Hope this helps!

Heat allows particles to gain more energy, including those in the air. This is why heating makes chemical reactions happen quicker. As the air particles have more energy, they will move faster and bump into each other faster, allowing for the sound to travel quicker

0.00000000082 -<br> scientific notation
Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

8.2 x 106^-11

Explanation:

To begin this problem you must remember the basic rule of scientific notation, which is, must be between 1-10. .000000000082 is much smaller than 1. However by moving the decimal 11 spots to the right, we can make it 8.2

Continue to move the decimal to the right until the value is in the 1-10 range. Make sure to count the moves to the right.

Once the decimal is in the right spot count the spots moved.

Since the number is wayyy smaller than the answer given the number will be negative 10^-11, in order to make it what is was before.

What happens to acetone molecules when you add heat to a beaker of liquid acetone? They gain a higher average kinetic energy. Th
iVinArrow [24]
When you heat up most substances it gives them more Kinetic energy and the substance becomes less arranged in an ordered state, further apart and move faster. therefore the answer is the first: They gain a higher average kinetic energy

Hope that helps :)

What is one example of an everyday molecule?
Tamiku [17]

Answer:

Hydrogen

Explanation:

Just to provide some background, an element is a pure substance consisting of only one type of atom. An atom is the smallest constituent of matter. All elements are comprised of a single type of atom (e.g., gold is composed of gold atoms, helium of helium atoms, phosphorus phosphorus, and so on).

A molecule is a group of two or more atoms. They can be the same atom (homonuclear), such as or different atoms (heteronuclear).

Some examples of homonuclear molecules include:

Hydrogen  (H2)  

Nitrogen  (N2)  

Phosphorus  (P4)  

Some examples of heteronuclear molecules include:

Carbon dioxide  (CO2)  

Sulfuric acid  (H2SO4)  

Methane  (CH4)
