The attraction among water molecules is stronger than the attraction among?
carbon dioxide molecules
What is a good hypothesis about how much energy stored in different types of foods?
A good hypothesis could be: "Foods high in fats will store more energy per gram compared to carbohydrates and proteins due to their higher caloric density." This suggests that, when comparing equal weights of these macronutrients, fatty foods will provide more energy, which can be measured through calorimetry. Testing this hypothesis can help illustrate the energy content differences among various food types.
What waves are caused by colliding air molecules?
Brownian movement, Brownian motion, or pedesis is the random movement of particles suspended in either a liquid or a gas. This is the movement that you see when sunlight is streaming through a window and you see the dust particles randomly moving. This movement helped to prove the existence of atoms and molecules. Many scientists, including Albert Einstein, used this motion to describe movements in the stock market, among other things!
Why water is sometimes referred to as the universal solvent because it is a large molecule and can fit easily among the molecules of many solutes?
Because water is a soulte and solvent is not
Why does solubility of solids and gases change with temperature?
The solubility of solids generally gets higher as the temperature gets higher. (apart from with calcium hydroxide- limewater). The opposite is true for gases- their solubility decreases as the temperature increases.
What is the main difference between how matter and how energy move through ecosystems?
Matter cycles through ecosystems in a closed loop, as it is recycled among living organisms and the environment through processes like decomposition and nutrient uptake. In contrast, energy flows through ecosystems in a one-way direction, typically entering as sunlight, being converted into chemical energy by producers, and then moving up the food chain as consumers utilize it, ultimately dissipating as heat. This distinction underscores the sustainability of matter versus the linear nature of energy transfer.
What organic molecules stores the greatest amount of energy?
Lipids, such as fats and oils, store the greatest amount of energy per gram among organic molecules. They contain high-energy bonds that can be broken down through metabolic processes to release energy for cellular activities.
How efficient is the transfer of energy among organisms an ecosystems?
By the testicles being consumed by a walrus. You welcome
The sequence of eating relationship or energy transfer among organisms?
The sequence of energy transfer among organisms is known as a food chain. It starts with producers (plants) capturing energy from the sun through photosynthesis, which is then consumed by primary consumers (herbivores), followed by secondary consumers (carnivores) that eat the primary consumers, and so on. This flow of energy through the food chain is essential for maintaining balance in ecosystems.
How does heat move from warmer things to cooler things?
Heat moves from warmer things to cooler things through a process called conduction, where the kinetic energy of the molecules in the warmer object is transferred to the molecules in the cooler object through direct contact. The heat transfer continues until both objects reach thermal equilibrium, with the same average kinetic energy among their molecules.
What is the major different in flow of energy versus the flow of matter?
Matter is always in the form of particles (atoms, molecules, etc.). For it to flow, the atoms have to move from one place to another. Energy can move from some matter to other matter without moving the matter. Example: an ice cube warming up but not yet melting has energy flowing into it, but matter is not flowing. When it starts to melt, matter (in the form of water molecules) flows out.
Are ecosystems transformers of matter and energy?
In an ecosystem the reactions going on are chemical reactions, and the total weight of the substances involved remains constant. Matter is only destroyed in nuclear reactions such as the fission of uranium, which does not happen in a normal ecosystem. Energy is transformed though, for example the sun's energy is absorbed by plants making them grow.
What molecules have the highest energy content glucose pyruvic acid or ATP?
ATP (adenosine triphosphate) has the highest energy content among the three molecules. ATP is often referred to as the "energy currency" of the cell because it stores and provides energy for various cellular processes.
What energy is transferred to air what happenes to the particles of air?
When energy is transferred to air, the molecules in the air become more excited. The energy causes the molecules to move around more than they did before, which could cause an increase in temperature, among other things.
When energy is transfered to air what happens to particles of air?
When energy is transferred to air, the molecules in the air become more excited. The energy causes the molecules to move around more than they did before, which could cause an increase in temperature, among other things.
