one of the following has the highest kinetic energy:a) particles of ice at zero degree celsius b)particles of water at 10 degree Celsius c) particles of water at 99 degrees celsius d) particles of steam at hundred degree Celsius
Answers
Answer:
Particles of steam at 100 ° celsius
particles of steam at 100 degree Celsius as the movement of intermolecular will be fast so more kinetic energy is there
Explanation:
Answer:
I do not know the water vapor at 0 degrees. Maybe you mean the water molecule in the sublimation phase.
But a simple calculation can be made.
1 gram (1 cubic centimeter) of pure water under 1 atmosphere pressure,
It takes 80 calories to convert from 0 degrees of ice to 0 degrees of water.
It takes +100 calories more to convert from 0 degrees water to 100 degrees water.
It needs + 80 more calories to turn from 100 degrees water to 100 degrees steam.
As the assumption;
In the space (vacuum), water is present as steam. In fact, the only feature of water vapor is that it is a single molecule.
When it is a single molecule, it does not matter if it is in ice-water-steam form.
The only thing that matters is the temperature they have. If they are at the same temperature, they should have the same amount of heat.
Molecular vibrations should be the same. So their kinetic energies must be the same.
