The second illustration is the best representation of the change in the movement of particles as the temperature of the water changes.
<u>Explanation:</u>
The second option perfectly represents the boiling of water. As when the temperature is increased, the water molecules gain energy to move faster, thus their kinetic energy of the atoms will be more. This will lead to more freely movement of all the atoms of the water.
And as boiling leads to transformation from liquid state to gaseous state, so the increase in the distance between atoms and molecules occurs in the gaseous state. Thus, the second illustration is best suitable for representing the boiling of water.
As on increasing temperature of the water, the distance between the molecules is increasing in the second illustration while the other illustration shows the decrease in the distance between the molecules. So, the second illustration is the best representation of the change in the movement of particles as the temperature of the water changes.
Copy it I think hp[e that is right lol
The time taken by Carbon-14 to decay radioactively from 120g to 112.5g is 22,920 years.
<h3>How do we calculate the total time of decay?</h3>
Time required for the whole radioactive decay of any substance will be calculated by using the below link:
T = (n)(t), where
- t = half life time = 5730 years
- n = number of half life required for the decay
Initial mass of Carbon-14 = 120g
Final mass of Carbon-14 = 112.5g
Left mass = 120 - 112 = 7.5g
Number of required half life for this will be:
- 1: 120 → 60
- 2: 60 → 30
- 3: 30 → 15
- 4: 15 → 7.5
4 half lives are required, now on putting values we get
T = (4)(5730) = 22,920 years
Hence required time for the decay is 22,920 years.
