while the substance is a liquid at what temperature do the molecules of the substance have the greatest average kinetic energy ​

Chemistry

dalvyx [7]3 years ago

The molecules of the liquid will be having the greatest average kinetic energy when the temperature of the liquid reaches its boiling point.

<u> Explanation: </u>

Average kinetic energy is the measure of kinetic energy exhibited by the molecules of any substance. It is directly proportionate to the temperature of the substance. According to kinetic molecular theory,

                           k=\frac{3 R T}{2 N_{A}}

As the molecules in solids are mostly closely packed, so they will attain the least kinetic energy of molecules in solid phase. Similarly, the molecules in liquid are slightly loosely packed and on increasing the temperature, the molecules will attain more energy to increase their neighbouring distances.

And when that temperature reaches the boiling point of that liquid substance, the molecules had attained the maximum amount of energy to increase its average kinetic energy to the maximum limit and transferring the liquid molecules to gaseous state.

As the molecules in gas phase are very loosely packed. The starting of the change in the state of molecules from liquid to gas phase on reaching the boiling point indicate the maximum average kinetic energy at that point.

What's is the difference between relative abundance vs percent abundance
guajiro [1.7K]
Relative means you take the required amount from the actual amount which gives you the excess or abundance, its relative because you compare it to the required amount.
The percent abundance is the relative abundance as a percentage of the required amount.
Therefore % abundance= (abundance/required amount) X 100

The key difference is that percentages are standardised as a number out of 100 which allows you to compare them with other percentages without any calculations.

Hope that helps.

The limiting reactant, O2, can form up to 2.7 mol Al2O3. What mass of Al2O3 forms?
Margaret [11]

Answer:

280 g Al₂O₃

Explanation:

To find the mass, you need to multiply the given value by the molar mass. This will cause the conversion because the molar mass exists as a ratio; technically, the ratio states that there are 101.96 grams per every 1 mole Al₂O₃. It is important to arrange the ratio in a way that allows for the cancellation of units. In this case, the desired unit (grams) should be in the numerator. The final answer should have 2 sig figs to reflect the given value (2.7 mol).

Molar Mass (Al₂O₃): 101.96 g/mol

2.7 moles Al₂O₃          101.96 g
------------------------  x  -------------------  = 275 g Al₂O₃  = 280 g Al₂O₃
                                     1 mole

Which stament about energy is mostly correct
klasskru [66]
I would say C is the most correct. 
In D it depends on what water source you're using. Let's say it is a waterfall, then the source of the water (melting ice or a lake) may disappear in the future. 
If you're using underwater "windmills" placed in the ocean, then you would expect it to last a while as the ocean will not disappear in the near future.
