What happens to the air as a stove heats it? This question is about thermal expansion and convection, not “it gets hot”.

Answer:

When there is heat at the bottom of this air or water, the air or water molecules in contact with the heat start to move, and the molecules spread apart. The heated air or water becomes less dense. It rises up until it gets to air or water with the same density as it has, and when it gets there, it pushes the air or water that was there out of the way. At the same time, new air or water fills the space that was vacated when the heated molecules rose up. The air or water that gets pushed out of the way falls down. This sets up a circular motion. Air or water is heated at the bottom, travels to the top, cools, gets denser, falls, is heated again and the whole cycle starts again. Convection does not occur in space because there is no gravity. Ovens work by convection. The heating coils at the bottom of the oven heat the air which climbs to the top, cools slightly, and falls down again.

Who was the first to propose the idea of atoms?
VMariaS [17]

Answer::Democritus

Explanation

The idea that all matter is made up of tiny, indivisible particles, or atoms, is believed to have originated with the Greek philosopher Leucippus of Miletus and his student Democritus of Abdera in the 5th century B.C. (The word atom comes from the Greek word atomos, which means “indivisible.”) These thinkers held that,

Relate the number of protons in the nucleus of an atom to the properties of matter.
Sauron [17]

Answer:

The number of electrons, in turn, determines the chemical properties of the atom. Protons contribute to the mass of an atom and provide the positive charge to the nucleus. The number of protons also determines the identity of the element

When the piston in the Boyle’s Law apparatus is at rest, what is the relationship between the pressure of the trapped gas and th
Andru [333]

Answer:

Pressure of the trapped gas and the pressure on the outside on the piston are the same.

Explanation:

When the piston is at rest, then it exist a mechanical equilibrium, that is to say, that pressure of the trapped gas is equal to the pressure on the outside of the piston.

3rd law of thermodynamics..<br><br> 2 Different Examples((Thnks))
VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

The third law of thermodynamics states that "the entropy of a perfect crystal of a pure substance approaches zero as the temperature approaches zero" (Wikipedia).

One example of the third law of thermodynamics has to do with steam. Steam is gaseous water. Since it is a gas, its molecules are free to move around therefore its entropy is high. When the temperature of the steam is decreased below 100 degrees, the molecules of steam loose energy and turn into liquid water and do not move as freely as they did in the gaseous state. If the temperature is further decreased to yield ice at zero degrees, the molecules of water are "frozen" in their positions and the entropy of the system decreases to zero.

Also, the ions in ionic crystal solids move around when the substance is in solution or in molten state hence the substance conducts electricity. When the ionic substance is in solid state, the ions do not move about and the entropy of the solid system tends towards zero.
