Answer: The beaker in which water level has decreased more is the one that contains pure water.
Explanation: Even when water is not heated it can evaporate, that is because molecules move at different speed and those that are closer to surface can break the gass pressure and scape as water vapor.
The movement of molecules of water can be affected by the presence of solutes (salts or other soluble compounds) and increase the evaporation temperature. For this particular case, molecules of salt atract the water molecules (remember salt has ions and water is a dipole with partial charges) and do not let the water move freely which avoid them to scape to the surface.
Answer:
The new temperature will be 2546 K or 2273 °C
Explanation:
Step 1: Data given
The initial temperature = 1000 °C =1273 K
The volume = 20L
The volume increases to 40 L
Step 2: Calculate the new temperature
V1/T1 = V2/T2
⇒with V1 = the initial volume = 20L
⇒with T1 = the initial temperature = 1273 K
⇒with V2 = the increased volume = 40L
⇒with T2 = the new temperature = TO BE DETERMINED
20L/ 1273 K = 40L / T2
T2 = 40L / (20L/1273K)
T2 = 2546 K
The new temperature will be 2546 K
This is 2546-273 = 2273 °C
Since the volume is doubled, the temperature is doubled as well
