The statement that explains what an insulator does is that: An insulator slows heat transfer.

A substance could be;

A thermal conductor
A thermal insulator

A thermal conductor allows heat to pass through it easily. It facilitates heat transfer.

A thermal insulator does not allow heat to pass through it easily, it does not facilitate heat transfer.

Hence, an insulator slows heat transfer.

What happens to metals when they form an ion?

Anastaziya [24]

Metals generally form cations, meaning they become positively charge - this positive charge is due to the loss of electrons.

Predict the boiling point of water at a pressure of 1.5 atm.

Lina20 [59]

Answer:

100.8 °C

Explanation:

The Clausius-clapeyron equation is:

$ln\frac{P_{1} }{P_{2}} =$ -Δ $\frac{H_{vap}}{r} (\frac{1}{T_{2}}-\frac{1}{T_{1}} )$

Where 'ΔHvap' is the enthalpy of vaporization; 'R' is the molar gas constant (8.314 j/mol); 'T1' is the temperature at the pressure 'P1' and 'T2' is the temperature at the pressure 'P2'

Isolating for T2 gives:

$T_{2}=(\frac{1}{T_{1}} -\frac{Rln\frac{P_{2}}{P_{1}} }{Delta H_{vap}}$
