Answer:
Explanation:
The melting point of a substance is the temperature at which its melt. The state of a substance is dependent on it's melting temperature. Generally, melting point above 25 °C is a solid.
This means phenol is a solid
Duodecane has melting point below 25 °C hence it is either a liquid or gas. However its boiling point of 216 °C means it would require higher temperature to boil it. Since 25 °C is less than 216 °C it means that it would remain in the liquid state.
Methane has melting point below 25 °C hence it is either a liquid or gas. However its boiling point of -164 °C means it boils easily even at very low temperatures. Since 25 °C is greater than -164 °C it means that it would exist in the gaseous state
As you increase in elevation, there is less air above you thus the pressure decreases. As the pressure decreases, air molecules spread out further (i.e. air expands) and the temperature decreases. If the humidity is at 100 percent (because it's snowing), the temperature decreases more slowly with height.
