How are solids liquids gases differnent from each other?
because solids have shapes To improve upon the above answer. Solids have a definite shape and size, whereas liquids and gasses do not. Liquids have definite volume, but do not have a definite shape, and gasses have no definite shape or volume.
Why do you think some hydrocarbons are gases and others are liquid?
Different hydrocarbons have different boiling points (and melting points) depending on their molecular size: smaller molecules boil at lower temperatures, larger molecules boil at higher temperatures. This fact is used to refine petroleum by fractional distillation. Methane has very small molecules and is a gas. Gasoline, diesel fuel, and kerosene have medium size molecules and are liquids. Asphalt has large molecules and is solid.
Why do some liquids have greater viscosity than others?
Viscosity is determined by the internal friction between the molecules of a liquid. Factors such as molecular size and shape, intermolecular forces, and temperature influence viscosity. Liquids with larger and more complex molecules, stronger intermolecular forces, and lower temperatures tend to have greater viscosity because the molecules have a harder time sliding past one another.
Determination of rate of evaporation of different liquids?
There are many factors in determining the rate of evaporation of different liquids. Some of the determining factors are rate of air flow, surface area size, temperature, concentration of the liquid, how tightly the liquid molecules bond to one another, and more.
What factors affect separation of pigments?
...are: -the attraction to the paper -the solubility of the pigments -the size of the particles posted by Huguito Doutre
What can affect the size of an applied force?
Friction or any other resistance.
In the diffusion of liquids through agar what characteristic of liquid determines the rate at which it will travel through the agar?
The size of the molecules.

What factors affect the amount of air resistance acting on an object?
shape, size, and speed
Does the size of a ball affect the velocity on which the ball goes?
not counting variables such as wind resistance and such, no
How does wheels affect a car's speed?
because the weight of your wheels and the size has wind Resistance on your car
How does a change in the size of a current affect the light output of a bulb?
The bulb has resistance which then gets smal
What three factors affect the amount of air resistance acting on an object?
shape, size, and speed
How does ball size affect the time it takes the ball to fall?
In the absence of air resistance, it doesn't.
What 3 factors affect the amount of air resistance on an object?
Speed, shape and frontal cross-section. Viscosity, texture, friction, gravity, velocity, size, and shape can all affect air resistance.
Why does water evaporates faster than other liquids?
Some liquids evaporate faster than others. Not all liquids evaporate slower than water; for example, alcohol evaporates much faster. The reasons for differences are related to the size of the molecules and in general the forces between molecules; as well as differences in specific heat.
Two factors that greatly affect air resistance on falling objects are the size and what?
Frontal surface area.
