Intermolecular distance is the distance between the particles that make up matter. The graph below compares the intermolecular d

istances in two substances. One substance is gas and the other is a liquid. A bar graph is shown with the title Intermolecular Distance. The y axis title is Distance. The x axis title is Substance. There are two bars on the x axis. One is labeled X and the other is labeled Y. The bar for X is higher than the bar for Y. Which statement best describes the two substances?

Explanation:

In gases, the molecules are held together by weak Vander waal forces. Due to this they have more kinetic energy and hence, more number of collisions take place between the molecules of a gas.

Therefore, they tend to diffuse at a faster rate and distance traveled by them is more as compared to the distance traveled by the molecules of a liquid.

On the other hand in liquids, the molecules are held by more strong intermolecular forces of attraction as compared to gases but not strong enough as they are in solids. Due to this molecules of a liquid are able to slide past each other. Hence, they have medium kinetic energy.

Therefore, less number of collisions take place between molecules of a liquid as compared to gases.

Thus, we can conclude that particles collide in gas so, substance X is a gas.

X is the gas and Y is the liquid. Intermolecular distances are farther apart in gases than in liquids.

Why would defective collagen proteins affect an individuals joints?
umka21 [38]

Answer:

Defective collagen proteins affect an individuals joints, as <u>collagen is an important component protein in body</u><u> connective tissues</u>

Explanation:

Collagen is a crucial protein in the extracellular matrix of various connective tissues in body (tendons, ligaments, muscles). It constitutes major protein component in mammals body.

Collagen Vascular disease is a group of diseases affecting 'collagen' connecting tissue. Apart from inheritance, they can con occur due to autoimmune disease. This implies that body's immune system fights against itself & mistakenly damages its own tissues. So, these diseases have a huge bearing on body joints components. Eg : Lupus , Arthritis are common collagen vascular diseases. Arthritis mostly affects adults above 30 years of age, lupus can be diagnosed in younger people above 15 years of age also.
