A thermometer is placed in water in order to measure the water’s temperature. What would cause the liquid in the thermometer to

rise?
The molecules in the water move closer together.

The molecules in the thermometer’s liquid spread apart.

I believe the correct answer from the choices listed above is the second option. It would be that the molecules in the thermometer’s liquid spread apart that caused <span>the liquid in the thermometer to rise. The heat expanded the liquid inside. Hope this answers the question.</span>

Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

When we use a thermometer to measure the temperature of water then heat from the water will lead to represent an increase in the thermometer reading.

This is because heat or warmth from the water will get transferred to the thermometer as a result, the liquid in the thermometer will also get warm.

Therefore, this warmth will increase kinetic energy of the molecules of liquid in the thermometer. Hence, the liquid will spread.

Thus, we can conclude that the liquid in the thermometer to rise because  molecules in the thermometer’s liquid spread apart.

A covalent bond describes two atoms (most likely nonmetals) that share their valence electrons to satisfy the octet rule. Carbon and oxygen are both nonmetals, and they would share electrons with each other through a bond that is not polar enough to be considered ionic. The answer should be B

Identify 3 physical changes that could occur with a sheet of paper
VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

  • 1. Dimensions: The sheet can be cut into several smaller pieces.

  • 2. Shape: the sheet can be formed into a paper ball or any other shape (using origami for example).

  • 3. Color: You can use crayons to paint the sheet and change its color.

Explanation:

<em>Physical changes</em> do not change the chemical properties. They do not transform the compounds that form the substances. They do not break and or form chemical bonds.

When you change the form, the state (solid, liquid or gas), the color, you are just changing physical properties.

Only chemical changes change the compounds that form the substance. For instance, if you burn the <em>sheet of paper</em>, then you are causing a chemical change because the organic matter in the paper will react with oxygen forming CO₂ and water, but by cutting, folding, smashing, or coloring with crayons, the compounds in the<em> sheet of paper</em> do not change.
