Graph temperature and time?

Yes, you can.


What is the slope of a velocity vs temperature graph?

The slope of a temperature vs time graph shows the rate of change of temperature. The slope will be positive if the temperature is increasing with time and negative if it is decreasing.


From the graph can you generalize that the higher the layer of the athmosphere (that is closer to the sun) hotter temperature why or why not?

Based on the graph, can you generalize that the higher the layer of the atmosphere (that is closer to the sun), the hotter the temperature? Why or why not


What tool is used to measure when a liquid becomes a solid?

Eyes and sense of touch,Ice pick.A More Technical Perspective:In a laboratory setting the change of state between a liquid and a solid is marked by a loss of heat energy while the temperature of the material remains the same. This is due to the energy surrendered by the material as its molecules take on a more "energy economic" configuration. As a consequence the devices need would be a thermometer to measure temperature change and a calorimeter to measure the rate of heat loss.Alternately the freezing point could be determined by plotting temperature change (with a thermometer) with time in a constant temperature bath. The freezing point would be marked by a flat section in the graph as heat was released by crystallization rather than heat lost due to heat capacity.

What is the trend of temperature of boiling water would be if it were graphed using a line graph?

Boiling water would have a horizontal line graph if time was on the horizontal axis and temperature was on the vertical axis.Water will not change temperature as it changes state - from a liquid to a gas or from a solid to a water.Water can change temperature if it is solid or liquid or gas.
