<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>
- Molecules along the surface of a liquid behave differently than those in the bulk liquid.
- Cohesive forces attract the molecules of the liquid to one another.
- Surface tension increases as the temperature of the liquid rises
<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
- Surface tension is measured as the energy required to increase the surface area of a liquid by a unit of area. The surface tension of a liquid results from an imbalance of intermolecular attractive forces, the cohesive forces between molecules.
- A molecule in the bulk liquid experiences cohesive forces with other molecules in all directions, while a molecule at the surface of a liquid experiences only net inward cohesive forces.
- Surface tension decreases when temperature increases because cohesive forces decrease with an increase of molecular thermal activity.
The process is called, Fixation
Answer:
a.) 22.4 L Ne.
Explanation:
It is known that every 1.0 mol of any gas occupies 22.4 L.
For the options:
<em>It represents </em><em>1.0 mol of Ne.</em>
<em />
using cross multiplication:
1.0 mol occupies → 22.4 L.
??? mol occupies → 20 L.
The no. of moles of (20 L) Ar = (1.0 mol)(20 L)/(22.4 L) = 0.8929 mol.
using cross multiplication:
1.0 mol occupies → 22.4 L.
??? mol occupies → 2.24 L.
<em>The no. of moles of (2.24 L) Xe </em>= (1.0 mol)(2.24 L)/(22.4 L) = <em>0.1 mol.</em>
- So, the gas that has the largest number of moles at STP is: a.) 22.4 L Ne.
