Concentration of a solution can be expressed in terms of molarity and molality
Molarity is the number of moles of solute in a liter of a solution.
Molarity (M) = Moles of solute/Volume(litres) of solution
Molality is the number of moles of solute in one kg of the solution
Molality (m) = Moles of solute/Mass (kg) of solution
Therefore if the volume or the mass of the solution is changed this would affect the concentration.
In addition, volume is a quantity which depends on temperature. However, mass is independent of temperature. Therefore any changes in temperature, can also bring about a change in the molarity of the solution.
The question is incomplete, the complete question is;
An alcohol thermometer makes use of alcohol's changing _______ in order to measure temperature. As the temperature goes up, the alcohol contained in the thermometer increases in volume, filling more of the thermometer's tube.
A.
mass
B.
state
C.
chemical composition
D.
density
Answer:
D.
density
Explanation:
Every kind of thermometer makes use of a change in a particular physical property of a substance as a measure of temperature. It must be a property that changes with temperature.
Density of a substance changes with temperature. Even though the mass of alcohol in glass remains constant, but its volume increases or decreases with change in temperature leading to a change in volume and consequently a change in density of the alcohol in glass. This change is used as a measure of the change in temperature.
According to Kepler's second law of orbital motion, a plane's orbital speed changes , depending on how far it is from the sun. The closer a planet is to the sun, the stronger the sun's gravitational pull on it, and the faster the planet moves. The farther away from the sun, the weaker the sun's gravitational pull and the slower it moves in its orbit.
The orbit of a planet around the sun is not a perfect circle, but an ellipse - a flattened circle.
