Describe how molecular motion and distance between molecules change as ice is heated to become a liquid and then a gas

Chemistry
1 answer:
MAXImum [283]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Described in the explanation section

Explanation:

Ice is the solid phase of water and this phase, the water molecules usually have very little energy and therefore can't detach from each other. This is because the water molecules are closely packed together in a regular arrangement normally called lattice.

Now, when the ice is heated to become a liquid, the energy of the water molecules increases and thus some of them will have enough energy to overcome the intermolecular forces that had been keeping them closely packed in the ice phase. This will then make the water molecules to move further apart thereby forming liquid water.

Now, when the molecules are heated further, the liquid water will now turn into water vapor, which is the gas phase of water. The molecules in this gas phase will have more energy than in the liquid phase because the average distances between each of them will be much larger than the size of the molecules themselves.

Answer:

Magnetism is believed to be caused by the alignment of small, numerous sub-units called : <em><u>Domains</u></em>

<em><u></u></em>

Explanation:

Domains : A magnetic domain is the region in which in which magnetic field of the atoms are grouped together and aligned.

  • In unmagnetized material all the magnetic Domains  point in different direction.
  • In magnetised material (ferromagnets , antiferromagnets) , The Domains point in a particular( fixed Pattern) direction.

Drag and drop the terms into the correct locations to describe how the relationship between photosynthetic organisms and animals
g100num [7]

Answer:

Photosynthetic bacteria must take in <u>Carbon Dioxide</u> to live, and they release <u>Oxygen </u> . Animals must take <u>Oxygen </u> to live, and they release <u>Carbon Dioxide.</u>

Explanation:

Photosynthesis:

It is the process in which in the presence of sun light and chlorophyll by using carbon dioxide and water plants produce the oxygen and glucose.

Carbon dioxide + water + energy →   glucose + oxygen

water is supplied through the roots, carbon dioxide collected through stomata and sun light is capture  by chloroplast.

Chemical equation:

6H₂O + 6CO₂ + energy  →   C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂

Photosynthetic bacteria perform same function as plants.  These bacteria contain light harvesting pigments absorb carbon dioxide and release oxygen.

While animals take oxygen and release carbon dioxide to live. This respiration process is opposite to the photosynthesis.

Glucose + oxygen → carbon dioxide + water + 38ATP
