Question

Q1. Define the following
a) Kinetic energy b) Diffusion c) Compressibility d) Density e) Latent heat of
vaporization​

Answer 1

Answer:

1)Kinetic energy is a property of a moving object or particle and depends not only on its motion but also on its mass. The kind of motion may be translation (or motion along a path from one place to another), rotation about an axis, vibration, or any combination of motions.

2)Diffusion is the movement of a substance from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration. Diffusion happens in liquids and gases because their particles move randomly from place to place. Diffusion is an important process for living things; it is how substances move in and out of cells.

3)Compressibility is a measure of the relative volume change of a solid or a fluid in response to a pressure change. For a given mass of fluid, an increase in pressure, Δp > 0, will cause a decrease in volume, ΔV < 0.

4)Density is a measure of mass per unit of volume. Density is a measure of mass per volume. ... An object made from a comparatively dense material (such as iron) will have less volume than an object of equal mass made from some less dense substance (such as water).

5)Latent heat of vaporization is a physical property of a substance. It is defined as the heat required to change one mole of liquid at its boiling point under standard atmospheric pressure. It is expressed as kg/mol or kJ/kg. ... The heat of vaporization of water is about 2,260 kJ/kg, which is equal to 40.8 kJ/mol.
