Question 7 (5 points)

(01.03 LC)
The atoms and molecules in a liquid are in constant motion. As temperature decreases, what is true of the particles in the liquid? (5 points)

a.) The distance between the particles increases.

b.) The attraction between the particles decreases.

c.) The rate of particle movement decreases.

d.) The potential energy of the particles decreases.

Answer 1

The rate of particle movement decreases.

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct answer is c.) The rate of particle movement decreases.

As the temperature of a liquid decreases, the particles in the liquid slow down and their rate of movement decreases. This is because temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles, and as temperature decreases, so does the average kinetic energy of the particles. As a result, the particles move more slowly and have less kinetic energy available to them.

For example, when water is heated, the particles move faster and the water turns into a gas (steam), while when water is cooled, the particles move slower and the water turns into a solid (ice).

Answer 2

Answ Es la B .

Explanation

By raising the temperature of a liquid, it turns into a gas, therefore its particles will have more movement and its kinetic energy will increase. the more you raise the temperature, the more space they will have between the molecules.
