Which force prevents protons from repelling each other inside a nucleus?
the gravitational force
the weak nuclear force
the electromagnetic force
<u>the strong nuclear force</u>
The metal with the highest melting point is aluminium which melts at 660.3°C.
Magnesium melts at 639°C , sodium at 98°C and potassium at 64°C.
The melting point is the temperature at which a substance begins to melt. As a solid substance is heated, or absorbs heat from the environment, the molecules that make up that substance begin to gain more (heat) energy, enough to overcome the intermolecular forces that in the first place have been holding them together in a sort of rigid fashion.
This energy enables the molecules to break free of their intermolecular forces and thus the solid's lattice structure changes and the solid becomes liquid.
Decrease in temperature is -126.0°C
<u>Explanation:</u>
Using Charles law we can set up the equation as,
V₁/T₁ = V₂/T₂
(2.00 L) / 294.0 K) = (1.00 L) / (x)
cross multiply to get:
2x = 294
2x/2 = 294/2
x = 147.0 K
Now kelvin is converted into Celsius by subtracting 273 from 147 as,
147 - 273 = -126°C
