What happens to the volume of a liquid when changed?
The volume either increases or decreases
What is a compression ratio?
Compression Ratio is the ratio between the original volume and the compressed volume in combustion chamber. The compression ratio is denoted as CR. It is the measure of how much air-fuel mixture is compressed during the compression stroke in the case of the gasoline engine (in the case of the diesel engine only air is compressed. Compression ratio is found by dividing the volume of stroke of the cylinder (swept volume) and clearance volume when the piston is at BDC by the volume when the piston is at TDC (ie clearance volume). Compression ratio= (Swept volume + Clearance volume) / Clearance volume. For example engine has a Swept volume of 700 cc. It has clearance volume 50 cc. Compression ratio= (700 + 80) / 80 =9.75: 1 It means Air fuel mixture is compressed to 1/9.75 of its original volume during compression stroke.
What happens when water changes from solid to liquid?
volume increses,
What happens to the volume of liquid as it becomes solid?
remains same
What happens to the volume of the cytoplasm during plasmolysis?
The volume of cytoplasm reduces during plasmolysis
What happens to lung volume during inspiration?
Chest cavity volume increases during inahalation, and decreases during exhalation.
What happens when a liquid becomes a gas (apex)?
It changes shape and volume.
What is the change of a liquid to a gas?
Evaporation.Would you believe condensation.Would you believe vaporization!(Evaporation is a type of vaporization that only happens at the surface of a liquid, boiling happens throughout the liquid volume)
A gas is compressed from an initial volume of 5.75 to a final volume of 1.21 by an external pressure of 1.00 During the compression the gas releases 121 of heat?
121
What happens to the temperature of a liquid as it changes from a liquid to a vapor?
The liquid vaporizes and the temperature increases as the volume also increases.
What happens to the volume of most substances as they are heated?
the volume of the solid would go down , thus making the solid into a liquid.
How automobile engine applied to Boyle's law?
As volume changes so does pressure. During the compression cycle of an engine, the volume is decreasing causing the pressure to increase. This happens so rapidly that I do not believe that temperature stays constant. For this to actually be following Boyle's law the temp is supposed to remain constant.
