How did anders Celsius invent the Celsius scale?
Anders Celsius invented the Celsius scale by proposing a temperature scale with 0 as the freezing point of water and 100 as the boiling point, with 100 degrees in between. He originally called this scale the centigrade scale but it was later renamed in his honor as the Celsius scale.
In physics What is a change of state?
A change of state in physics refers to the transformation of a substance from one physical state to another, such as from solid to liquid (melting), liquid to gas (vaporization), or vice versa. During these changes, the temperature or pressure of the substance may vary, but the chemical composition remains the same.
What does bottom waters of a pond mean?
Bottom waters of a pond refer to the water located at the lowest level of the pond, closer to the sediment or substrate. This water tends to be cooler, denser, and may have lower oxygen levels compared to the surface waters. Organisms that live in or interact with the bottom waters are adapted to these specific conditions.
What are the examples of thermal conduction?
Examples of thermal conduction include the transfer of heat through a metal rod when one end is heated, the heat transferred through a pot when cooking on a stove, and the heating of one part of a room when a radiator is turned on.
How does the amount of heat required to change water from a solid to a liquid compare with the amount needed to change from a liquid to a gas?
Very simply, the amount of heat required to change state is exactly the same for solid to liquid (ice to water) and liquid to gas (water to steam) for a given substance, in this case water. The basic measurement of heat is the BTU (British Thermal Unit). 1 BTU is the quantity of heat required to raise 1 pound of water 1 degree Fahrenheit at atmospheric pressure. Keep in mind that there are two 'types' of heat to consider when contemplating the change of state of a substance: Sensible heat and latent heat. Clearly, sensible heat we can measure directly with a thermometer. Latent heat is a calculated quantity. When water undergoes the change of state from water to steam (liquid to gas) it does so through the gain of heat quantity. That heat gain that causes the change of state is latent heat, i.e; the actual heat gain is unmeasurable by thermometer since the temperature of that water is 212 deg f as it undergoes the change of state to steam, and that steam is also 212 deg f. Any increase in the temperature of the steam is said to 'superheat' the steam. As an example, steam fed boilers are nearly always supplied with 'superheated' steam at temperatures near 600 deg f. We see the addition of heat quantity as sensible heat during the rise of the waters temperature to 212 deg f (we are able to measure the rise in temperature), then we see the addition of heat quantity as latent heat during the change of state to gas from liquid (no change in the measurable temperature during the change of state), and again the addition of heat quantity as sensible heat in the process of 'superheating' the steam to any temperature above 212 deg f. If you can quantify the amount of water in pounds, you can quantify the amount of heat in BTU's.
Why does waters freezing point make water a poor choice for the liquid in a thermometer?
The water would regularly freeze in the winter in many parts of the world.
How does the alcohol based liquid to clean windshields help keep the water in the cleaning fluid from freezing on the windshield?
Because alcohol has a lower freezing point than water. By mixing it with water, you lower the waters freezing point. So it keeps the water from freezing on the windshield.
What is waters freezing temperature in Cecilius?
O
Can you put a thermometer in a fish tank after the waters in there?
yes u can
When temperature liquids chage to solids?
It depends on the material waters freezing point is 0deg celsius(32faren) but any other liquid in the element chart varies on many other things
How do fishes living in Antarctica survive?
Fish swimming in waters around Antarctica -- which is liquid -- enjoy water temperatures that are above freezing. Cold water on earth is home to many fish which thrive in cooler water.
What is the average temperature of Antarctic waters?
The Southern Ocean around Antarctica keeps temperatures between about 32 degrees F -- when the surface is frozen, and about 28 degrees F -- when the water is liquid. The water remains liquid below freezing temperature, because of the high saline content.
What are the important use for salt?
Food, altering waters freezing point, licks for animals
What kind of shark can survive in freezing waters and is the northern most shark?
Greenland Shark
What are super-cooled liquids?
I know it sounds a little stupid, but supercooling is when water remains a liquid while it is below freezing point. Note, only some waters can do this.
Why did alcatraz keep prisoner's on alcatraz?
Because nobody thought that any prisons would try to escape especially with the freezing waters and shark infested waters
What is sea waters freezing point?
Depending on the salinity, between -1 0C and -3 0C.
