Answer : The correct option is, (3) change states of matter.

Explanation :

Latent heat : It is defined as the heat required to convert the solid into liquid or vapor and a liquid into a vapor without changing the temperature.

There are two types of latent heat.

(1) Latent heat of fusion

(2) Latent heat of vaporization

Latent heat of fusion : It is defined as the amount of heat energy released or absorbed when the solid converted to liquid at atmospheric pressure at its melting point.

Latent heat of vaporization : It is defined as the amount of heat energy released or absorbed when the liquid converted to vapor at atmospheric pressure at its boiling point.

Hence, latent heat is used to change states of matter.

Can the ratio of hydrogen to oxygen change if a solute is dissolved in the water
coldgirl [10]

Answer:

Water molecules feature the combinations of hydrogen and oxygen atoms in a 2:1 ratio. Since they are present in a fixed ratio of mass, water molecules obey the law of constant proportions. Water is formed when two molecules of the diatomic hydrogen gas, combine with one molecule of the diatomic oxygen gas to produce two molecules of water

What are 3 reasons scientist found Rutherford's nuclear atomic model to be fundamentally incomplete
zysi [14]
The three reasons that scientists found Rutherfor's nuclear atomic model to be fundamentally incomplete are as follows:
Number 1) according to Rutherford, the electrons revolve in completely circular orbits. However, if this was true the charged electron would simply fall into the nucleus after losing energy.
Number 2) According to Rutherford's model, the nucleus itself only consisted of protons. However, as we now know due to research in quantum mechanics, if this was true this would make the atom unstable due to the cycle of attraction and repulsion.
Number 3) The neutrons which have also been discovered since to be an important part of the atom, are not mentioned at all in Rutherford's model.

Identify which two compounds below are constitutional isomers
Romashka [77]

Answer:

(CH₃)₃COCH3₃ and (CH₃)₂CHOCH₂CH₃

Explanation:

Isomers are compounds which have the same molecular formula. Constitutional isomers have different connectivity; the atoms are connected in different ways.

1. (CH₃)₃COCH₃

2. (CH₃)₂CHOCH3₃

3. (CH₃)₂CHOCH₂CH₃

Molecules 1 and 3 have the same formula (C₅H₁₂O) and are isomers. Molecule 2 is not an isomer. From the structural formula, it is clear that Molecules 1 and 3 have different connectivity.
