Answer:

More slowly than

Larger than

Weaker

Explanation:

The vapor pressure of a solution describes how quickly a solution will turn into vapour. If we say that a solution has a high vapour pressure, we are actually saying that the solution turns into vapour more quickly.

Acetone has a higher vapour pressure than water so acetone turns to vapour quicker than water.

Vapour pressure has a lot to do with the magnitude of intermolecular forces in solution. The stronger the magnitude of intermolecular forces, the lower the vapor pressure and the more slowly the solution evapourates.

So, the hydrogen bonds in water provides stronger intermolecular forces than dispersion and dipole interaction in acetone. Hence, water vaporizes more slowly than acetone.

moles CO₂ = 5.57.10⁻⁴

<h3>Further explanation   </h3>

A mole is a number of particles(atoms, molecules, ions)  in a substance

Can be formulated :

\tt mol=\dfrac{mass}{MW}

0.7% percent change with 3.5g of plant matter

mass :

\tt 0.7\%\times 3.5~g=0.0245~g

moles :

\tt moles=\dfrac{0.0245}{44}=0.000557=5.57.10^{-4}

Where did water become gas?
ASHA 777 [7]
Answer: Water becomes gas at D-E.

Explanation:
In the flat line D-E water is absorbing energy to become gas, and when the water is completely gas, the temperature will increase again therefore the line will rise up.
