Question

True or False When the attraction between the particles overcomes their motion the particles clump together to boil. ​

Answer 1

Answer:

False

Explanation:

It is wrong to claim that when the attraction between particles overcomes their motion, the particles will clump together to boil.

During boiling particles do no clump together, they tend to move apart more rapidly.

• Boiling occurs when the vapor pressure overcomes the ambient atmospheric pressure.
• The hotter part of the boiler close the heat source moves rapidly away because they have become less dense.
• The colder and denser part sinks and this interaction sets up a convection cell.
