Why would a thermometer show a low temperature in the thermosphere?
Temperature is the average amount of energy of motion of each molecule of a substance gas molecules in the thermosphere move very rapidly, so the temperature is very high
How do particles behave at its boiling point?
An extreme example of Brownian Motion. Energetic molecules would be repelling each other in agitation and colliding. Those that accumulate enough energy would escape as gas and vapor (steam). The energy of the particles is that they bounce off of each other making more and more energy
What happens to water molecules when water is heated from 90 to 110 degrees Celsius?
They become steam as they raise from the boiling point to the heat of vaporization. All hydrogen bonds between water molecules are broken due to the " jiggling " caused by the influx of heat energy and they are then gaseous and separate molecules of water.
What has a higher boiling point water or KI?
Potassium iodide has a higher boiling point because it is ionically bonded while water is polar covalent (with hydrogen bonds). The ionic bonds on KI are stronger than the bonds of water. This means that the molecules are "stuck" to each other stronger than water's molecules. Then it would take more energy (heat) to "unstick" them to change its state of matter, resulting in a higher boiling point.
Which soil would water flow through faster and thus would erode more rapidly sandy soil or silty soil?
Water would move through sand more rapidly than silt, but that does not mean sand would erode more rapidly than silt. In fact, the opposite is true. Erosion occurs when water runs along the surface of the land. If it infiltrates downward into the soil, it does not create runoff.
What is a non solid state of matter in which the atoms or molecules are free to travel past each other as in a gas or liquid?
would it be water,
Would I be able to get a job in the health field?
The health field is expanding rapidly. Jobs in nursing and other health related occupations are available for everyone, no matter what your educational background.
A small mass of matter from outer space?
Unfortunately your question is redundant; matter causes mass. The answer is that the smallest unit would be any subatomic particle (proton, antiproton, Tau, muon, and even an electron but only slightly). Then there are atoms and other than that, diatomic molecules (normal matter or dark matter) would be next.
What substance is a mixture of molecules?
The Type of substance of a molecule would be an element.
Describe the condition of matter if there were no secondary forces operating between molecules?
Matter would be in an inert state if nothing is operating within it.
Are nitrogen atoms ever destoryed?
No. For, if they were, it would produce a tremendous explosion. And matter is never destroyed, no matter what happens to it, the molecules and atoms are just rearranged.
What transfer of thermal energy?
Heat being transferred from one thing to another. The rapidly moving molecules cause slower moving molecules to speed up. Running warm water over your cold hands would be an example.
What is Transfer of thermal energy?
Heat being transferred from one thing to another. The rapidly moving molecules cause slower moving molecules to speed up. Running warm water over your cold hands would be an example.
Which state of matter would generally be the best material for transmitting sound?
Solid - since the molecules are the closest together more collisions and vibrations occur in the matter.
Which material will sound travel the fastest?
sound would travel through solids fastest since their molecules are more closely packed,hence vibrations are easily conveyed unlike other states of matter.
Would sugar dissolve more rapidly in warm water or cold water?
In warm because the warm molecules are moving faster and can dissolve more hope that answers your question.
How does temperature cause matter to change states?
This could be a long answer but simply, the more heat, the more energy the atoms/molecules have (causing more powerful vibrations in the atoms), making it easier to break the bonds between the molecules/atoms. this will change the state of the compound/element in question :)
