A typical phase change diagram is shown below. Which of the numbered arrows represent changes where the kinetic energy of the particles increases? http://sevenstaracademy.angellearning.com/AngelUploads/QuestionData/2a1efb29-fe9f-4c42-943d-cd88679cd39314N15553327533254155.jpg
i think its 2 & 4
@iPwnBunnies
hey dood!
what do you think of the question?
Oh hai. Um, a part of kinetic molecular theory states that temperature and kinetic energy are proportional. So, as one goes up or down, the other goes up or down.
ok
i think I'm correct then?
Whoa. Why are none of these correct. .-. Heat is gained during phase changes, but the temperature stays constant.
cause the arrows on 2 & 4 both have them pointing up
oh....welll....
No, they're pointing in a positive direction of heat energy. Hmm...
oh wait, i forgot to put options ;P
A) 1 and 2 B) 1 and 3 C) 2 and 4 D) 3 and 4
I CHOOSE C
I too choose C. Bad question imo.
lol
i wanted your opinion!!
