Answer:
Gases are easily compressed. We can see evidence of this in Table 1 in Thermal Expansion of Solids and Liquids, where you will note that gases have the largest coefficients of volume expansion. The large coefficients mean that gases expand and contract very rapidly with temperature changes. In addition, you will note that most gases expand at the same rate, or have the same β. This raises the question as to why gases should all act in nearly the same way, when liquids and solids have widely varying expansion rates.
The answer lies in the large separation of atoms and molecules in gases, compared to their sizes, as illustrated in Figure 2. Because atoms and molecules have large separations, forces between them can be ignored, except when they collide with each other during collisions. The motion of atoms and molecules (at temperatures well above the boiling temperature) is fast, such that the gas occupies all of the accessible volume and the expansion of gases is rapid. In contrast, in liquids and solids, atoms and molecules are closer together and are quite sensitive to the forces between them.

Answer:
- 0.99 °C ≅ - 1.0 °C.
Explanation:
- We can solve this problem using the relation:
<em>ΔTf = (Kf)(m),</em>
where, ΔTf is the depression in the freezing point.
Kf is the molal freezing point depression constant of water = -1.86 °C/m,
m is the molality of the solution (m = moles of solute / kg of solvent = (23.5 g / 180.156 g/mol)/(0.245 kg) = 0.53 m.
<em>∴ ΔTf = (Kf)(m)</em> = (-1.86 °C/m)(0.53 m) =<em> - 0.99 °C ≅ - 1.0 °C.</em>
Answer:
70.0°C
Explanation:
We are given;
- Amount of heat generated by propane as 104.6 kJ or 104600 Joules
- Mass of water is 500 g
- Initial temperature as 20.0 ° C
We are required to determine the final temperature of water;
Taking the initial temperature is x°C
We know that the specific heat of water is 4.18 J/g°C
Quantity of heat = Mass × specific heat × change in temperature
In this case;
Change in temp =(x-20)° C
Therefore;
104600 J = 500 g × 4.18 J/g°C × (x-20)
104600 J = 2090x -41800
146400 = 2090 x
x = 70.0479
=70.0 °C
Thus, the final temperature of water is 70.0°C
It’s soft which makes It low energy
