As a substance is changing from a liquid to a gas, the distance between its molecules increases, and the temperature of the system remains the same.
Option A
<u>Explanation:</u>
The external energy required to change from one state to another is mostly considered as temperature. So on increase in temperature, the solid changes to liquid and the liquid changes to gases. But the temperature remains constant in the system after changing the phase.
This is because when the temperature is increased on a liquid system, the rise in temperature is utilized for breaking the bonds and thus the molecules will be distanced from each other. If we consider liquid - gas phase transition, the gas molecules are farther distanced compared to liquid molecules.
So the rise in temperature is utilized for breaking the bonds and also to provide the kinetic energy to the gas molecules as they are tend to move more freely compared to liquid. Thus, the distance between the molecules increases, and the temperature of the system remains the same on changing from liquid to gas.
Sharing of 4 electrons between two atoms results in two double bonds. This can be see in the case of oxygen molecule (O2)
Atomic number of O = 8
Electron configuration of O = 1s²2s²2p⁴
Valence electron configuration: 2s²2p⁴
When 2 O atoms combine they share 4 electrons to form 2 double bonds. In addition, there are two lone pairs on each O atom.
Structural formula: O=O
