Question

ITS FOR 100 PNTS,

In one to two sentences, explain a similarity and a difference between the particles in liquid water at 100ºC and the particles in steam at 100ºC. PLEASE HELP IM BEING TIMED!

Answer 1

Both liquid water at 100ºC and steam at 100ºC are made up of water molecules that act in a similar way; but, in liquid form, the molecules are squished together and not as strongly connected, while in the steamy gas form, the molecules are more spread out and move faster because of strong steam pressure.

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

At 100°C, the water is present in two states: Liquid and gases.

At this temperature, the water molecules get converted into vapor state. The energy of the vapor or steam particles is more than the water molecules although they are present at the same temperature because of the presence of Latent heat of vaporization.

Latent heat of vaporization is defined as the amount of energy required to convert a liquid into gas at constant temperature and pressure. This energy is hidden in the physical process.

Because of this heat, the particles of steam have more energy than water at same temperature.

particles in steam at hundred degree Celsius and 373 degree Kelvin will have more energy than the water at same temperature because the steam would have observed the latent heat of vaporization which is equal to 540 calories
