This plateau is where a phase change occurs. Likely, this cooling curve observes the changing of a liquid into a solid (so that the temperature is quantifiable). As something cools, it’s losing energy to the surroundings; when a phase change occurs, like liquid to solid, energy isn’t lost directly from the atom, but instead the energy maintained by free motion of the atom is used. This lack of motion reduces it into a lattice (all while maintaining a constant internal energy), finalizing the phase change, after which energy is lost directly from the atom again.
Surface tension is the result of water molecules pulling inward with a strong attractive force.
The attractive force brings the molecules on the surface of the water close together.
The attractive force causes the surface of the water to be drawn toward the water molecules beneath the surface. <span>
Since there are no water molecules above the surface, there are uneven forces. This causes surface tension, allowing the coin to float on the water’s surface.</span>
Explanation:
When a metal replaces another metal in solution, we say such a reaction has undergone a single displacement reaction.
In such a reaction, metal higher up in the activity series replaces another one due to their position.
To known the metal or metals that will replace the given copper, we need to reference the activity series of metals.
Every metal higher than copper in the series will displace copper from the solution.
So, there metals are: potassium, sodium, lithium, barium, strontium etc.
I think it’s to long to fit in a period??
