It's not, if it were it would be ice. The water is a bit warmer.

Because the electrons in a solid, in this case the ice, are only vibrating. And so when it heats up, the electrons vibrate more. Imagine a scale from 1 to 150, 1 to 50 is a solid, 50 to 100 is a liquid, and 100 to 150 is a gas. If the ice has just been melted, then the electrons are only just in the beginning stages of moving enough to be a liquid, and the movement of electrons determines the temperature because it creates energy. I hope this was the answer you were looking for, let me know if I confused you

1. Naturally occurring europium (Eu) consists of two isotopes was a mass of 151 and 153. Europium- 151 has an abundance of 48.03
sergejj [24]
The atomic mass of Europium is 152 amu

Work:
151(0.4803) = 72.52 amu
153(0.5197) = 79.5 amu
72.5 + 79.5 = 152 amu

A container holds one mole of a gas if the amount of gas is tripled how many molecules of gas will be in the container?
Semmy [17]

Answer:At the molecular level, the pressure of a gas depends on the number of collisions its molecules have with the walls of the container. If the pressure on the piston is doubled, the volume of the gas decreases by one-half. The gas molecules, now confined in a smaller volume, collide with the walls of the container twice as often and their pressure once again equals that of the piston.

1. How many molecules are in 4.5 moles?
Naily [24]

Answer:

2.4 ⋅ 10 24

Explanation:

All that you need to know here is that in order for a given sample of water to contain exactly  1  mole of water, it must contain  6.022 ⋅ 10 23  molecules of water.

This is known as Avogadro's constant and essentially acts as the definition of a mole. If you have  6.022 ⋅ 10 23  molecules of water, then you can say for a fact that you have  1  mole of water.

An aerospace engineer is designing a rocket to have three stages. Which is
valina [46]

Answer:

<em>A not reasonable explanation for an aerospace engineer designs a rocket to have three stages is</em>:

  • <u><em>A. To simplify the design of the rocket</em></u>

Explanation:

A <em>three stages rocket</em> permits to separate the fuel compartments. The rocket must be launched with a huge amount of fuel to last the entire travel. Then the initial mass of the rocket and the fuel is considerably large.

As the rocket flies, part of the fuel is consumed and so some compartements may be separated and removed decreasing the mass of the rocket as it flies (<em>option D. </em>is a reasonable explanation), so the rocket only carries the necessary mass (<em>statement B</em>. is a reasonable explanation).

As the rocket moves away from Earth, the gravitational force decreases and, in the space, the amount of thrust needed is lesser, which the aerospace engineers take into account for the design (choice C. is a reasonable explanation).

The only <em>not reasonable explanation to design a three stage rocket</em> is to <em>simplify the design of the rocket</em>: designing a rocket with three modules each with different features, functions, and the detachment mechanisms brings lot of complex problems to solve. So, o<em>ption A. </em>is the correct answer.
