Question

Explain the term boiling and melting point on the basis of kinetic theory of gases.

Answer 1

Usually boiling occurs at 100 degree centigrade temperate of water because water molecules lost the kinetic energy and skip into air while comes to metling the water molecules creates a bond between them as the solid turns into liquid the K E of water increases

Answer 2

Answer:

Boiling point is the maximum temperature at which the heat supplied to a liquid increases its kinetic energy, and hence decreases its intermolecular forces. This results in the formation of the gaseous state. In case of water, it is 373K Or 100°C.

Melting point is the minimum temperature at which the heat supplied to a solid increases its kinetic energy, and hence decrease its intermolecular forces. This results in the formation of the liquid state. In case of ice, it is 273K Or 0°C.
