Answer:
Substances have more kinetic energy in the gas state than in the Solid state.
Gas have more kinetic energy as it flows from here and there.It flows really fast as it have less space between the molecules
Solids have less Kinetic energy as it is hard and can't flow so easily like gas . It has tightly packed molecules
Molecular is every element present in the compound eg C2H6, empirical is the smallest whole number ratio of elements in a compound so that would be CH3 as you divide by the highest common factor. Some compounds only have 1 formula if they are simple or have no common factors. Eg methane, CH4 is its molecular and empirical because its the simplest whole number ratio and includes every element in the molecule
It behaved as a catalyst (the acid hydrolysis )
Answer:
The time required to melt the frost is 3.25 hours.
Explanation:
The time required to melt the frost dependes on the latent heat of the frost and the amount of heat it is transfered by convection to the air .
The heat transferred per unit area can be expressed as:
being hc the convective heat transfer coefficient (2 Wm^-2K^-1) and ΔT the difference of temperature (20-0=20 °C or K).
If we take 1 m^2 of ice, with 2 mm of thickness, we have this volume
The mass of the frost can be estimated as
Then, the amount of heat needed to melt this surface (1 m²) of frost is
The time needed to melt the frost can be calculated as
