Answer:

Time spent on the greenway road  = 4.5 hours

Time spent on the 2 lane road = 1.5 hours

Explanation:

The distance of the trip  is 360 miles and the initial speed of the car is 62 miles/hr and after the road became 2 lane highway the car slowed to 54 miles/hr.

Let us divide the trip into two

Greenway

speed = distance/time

speed = 62 mph

time = a

distance = speed × time

distance = 62a

2 lane highway

speed = distance/time

speed = 54 mph

time = b

distance = speed × time

distance = 54b

Total distance

62a + 54b = 360......................(i)

Total time

a + b = 6..............................(ii)

a = 6-b

insert a in equation (i)

62(6-b) + 54b = 360

372  - 62b + 54b = 360

-8b = 360-372

-8b = - 12

b = 12/8

b = 1.5

from equation (ii)

a + 1.5 = 6

a = 6 - 1.5

a = 4.5

<span>The expected boiling point of a substance increases with an increasing molar mass of the substance. So I would expect the lighter compounds to boil at lower temperature. Also more polar molecules tend to boil at higher temperature. Pentane is the lightest of all three compounds, so it should boil the soonest. Heptane is a lot heavier than Pentane, but slightly lighter than Heptanol. So it should boil next. Heptanol is the heaviest of all of the molecules and is also quite polar compared to heptane. So it should have the highest of all the boiling points.</span>
