I believe the correct answer from the choices listed above is option D. When liquid gold becomes a solid, its particles get closer together. This happens due to the rearrangement of particles in a physical change. Hope this answers the question.

Answer: option D. The rearrangement of particles in a physical change.

Explanation:

1) The change occured when a liquid substance becomes a solid is named freezing.

Yes, such as when liquid water becomes ice.

2) Such change is a change of phase or physical state of the matter. As such it is just a physical change: the chemical composition of the substance and the chemical bonds do not change.

3) At atomic or molecular level, what happens with the particles during freezing is that they come closer and are arranged in fixed positons one respect to the each other, so the particles do not slide over others. By occupying a fixed position, the substance acquires a definite shape and volume, and is not able to flow.

Note that the centripetal force is proportional to the square of the velocity, implying that a doubling of speed will require four times the centripetal force to keep the motion in a circle.

Neko [114]
Ocean levels are not greatly affected because when water is deposited or received from the ocean, at the same time water is being evaporated from the ocean to condense in the clouds and them form into precipitation.

Real gases are those that :
Firlakuza [10]

Real gases are those, which deviate from ideal behavior.

Answer: Option D

<u>Explanation: </u>

Very tiny particles are present in real gases and occupying finite space by exerting some specific interactions between them. It takes as the reason for why it deviates from its behaviour. There is a lot of difference between a real gas and ideal gas. Ideal gas is the one that which is imaginary, and does not exist. Its characteristics are ideal, and all other real gases, try to follow them.

Real gases, are available in the atmosphere, but need not be naturally available. There is no relation between number of protons and nature.  And, they won’t behave ideally, at any conditions. We calculate the characteristics of a real gas using ideal gas equation, only because it is very difficult to determine their behaviour.

Kinetic energy....
saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

The ocean liner

Explanation:

Given that,

The mass of the bullet, m = 0.0014 Kg

The velocity of the bullet, v = 396 m/s

The mass of the ocean liner, M = 7.1 x 10⁷ Kg

The velocity of the ocean liner, V = 13 m/s

The kinetic energy is given by the formula,

                                 K.E = 1/2 mv²

1) The kinetic energy of the bullet,  

                                  K.E = 1/2 x 0.0014 x 396²

                                         = 109.775 J

2) The kinetic energy of the ocean liner,

                                 K.E = 1/2 x 7.1 x 10⁷ x 13²

                                        = 6 x 10⁹ J

Hence, the ocean liner has more kinetic energy.

How can two substances be made up of the same two elements but have very different properties?
asambeis [7]
So, basically, it might have different quantities, such as Carbon Dioxide (CO2) and Carbon Monoxide (CO), which are both made up of Carbon and Oxygen, but Carbon Monoxide has less oxygen. And they both have different properties, like CO is poisonous.
