In a sample of oxygen gas at room temperature, the average kinetic energy of all the balls stays constant. Which postulate of ki

The kinetic energy of gas particles depends on temperature. Greater the temperature higher will be the average kinetic energy

Kinetic energy is related to the temperature as:

KE = 3/2 kT

where k = Boltzmann constant

T = temperature

In the given example, since the temperature of O2 gas is maintained at room temperature, the average KE will also remain constant.

The fifth postulate of the kinetic molecular theory which states that the temperature of the gas depends on the average KE of the particles of the gas explains the above observation.

The substances below are listed by increasing specific heat capacity value. Starting at 30.0 °C, they each absorb 100 kJ of ther
timama [110]

Answer:

Silver, 0.239 J/(g °C)

Explanation:

  • The heat change is related to specific heat as given by the formula;

Heat change = mass of substance × specific heat × change in temperature

  • Therefore; considering same amount of substance or equal masses and have the same initial temperature.
  • The change in temperature will be inversely proportional to the specific heat.
  • Therefore; the higher the specific heat lower the temperature change.
  • Hence,  the change in temperature will be highest for the substance with the lowest specific heat.

Therefore; the one that will increase in temperature the most is Silver

Anna stated that ionic compounds have high melting points and low boiling points. She said that this demonstrates that ionic com
liubo4ka [24]

Answer: Anna stated that ionic compounds have high melting point and low boiling point. The error in the statement is that ionic compound have low boiling point, instead ionic compounds have high boiling point, because in an ionic compound, the force of attraction working between two ions is very strong and hence the bonds present are very strong, and a lot of energy is needed to break them
