Probably because (from what I've heard) they test them before shipping them; they need to be tested before shipping to make sure that the red liquid rises up correctly.

What is the physical state of fluorine at 25 degrees?

It is a gas. Fluorine has a boiling point of -188 degrees celcius. It is a highly toxic gas and is the most electronegative element in the periodic table.


Is fluorine a liquid?

It can be at low temperatures - between -220 degrees C and -188 degrees C. But, at room temperature it is a gas.


What is Chlorine's boiling point and melting point?

(It has a melting point of-150.7 degrees Fahrenheit and a boiling of -29.27 degrees Fahrenheit.) Chlorine Melting point is 172 Kelvin (which is also its freezing point) Chlorine's boiling point is 239 Kelvin (which is also its condensing point) For reference, water freezes at 273 Kelvin and boils at 373 Kelvin. This means that chlorine will remain a gas until quite cold temperature of about negative 34 degrees centigrade. Those numbers above are valid under atmosphere pressure 14.7 PSI As soon as pressure changes, especially when Cl2 is being transferred through piping, boiling point ( condensing point) will also go higher. For example; Cl2 is in gas form at 25 PSI if temperature is 24F (-4C , or 268K ) If you increase the pressure in your pipe up to 65 PSI for transferring to further points then CL2 gas condenses (liquiifies) in the pipe. Reason is condensing temperature at 65 PSI is 54F (12C , or 285K)


Why does boiling water take longer than melting ice?

It has to do with the intermolecular forces of the water molecule. When you convert ice to liquid water you are only partially overcoming these forces. This allows one water molecule to pass over another (which is why it flows). Within the liquid the existence of the hydrogen bonds keeps the molecule much closer than with only van der waals Interactions (I believe it is about 15% closer). When liquid water converts to vapor you are completely disassociating the hydrogen bonds between the molecules.

What country is 7 degrees north latitude and 7 degrees west latitude?

A set of latitude/longitude numbers pins it down to a single point on Earth. It's never correct to say that a whole country has these coordinates. The point described is in central Venezuela, about 188 miles southwest of Ciudad Guyana and 273 miles southeast of the center of Caracas.
