Decreases

Distinguish between evaporation and boiling.

Evaporation happens at a liquid surface, whereas boiling occurs in the bulk of the liquid.

Why doesn't water freeze at 0°C when foreign molecules or ions are present?

Foreign molecules or ions get between water molecules and ice crystals, thus impeding crystal formation.

What is the role of "loose" electrons in heat conductors?

Free electrons can move through a material carrying heat, jostling atoms and other electrons.

How does glass act like a one-way valve for a conventional greenhouse? Does the atmosphere similarly act as a one-way valve?

Glass transmits solar radiation into the greenhouse and blocks infrared radiation from leaving the greenhouse. The same thing happens in the atmosphere.

Why does the pupil of the eye appear black?

Light that enters the pupil bounces several times before exiting, and is absorbed on each bounce, so little light exits.

What happens to the water pressure at the bottom of a geyser when some of the water above gushes out? What is the result?

As water rushes out, the pressure on the remaining water is reduced, so the water boils.

You are mixing water with ice in an insulated container. The following are given: the amount of heat absorbed by the ice if heated to its melting point: 400 J, the amount of heat absorbed by the ice if it all melts (which includes the heat needed to bring the ice to its melting point): 2100 J, the amount of heat given off by the water if cooled to its freezing point: 1800 J, and the amount of heat given off by the water if it all freezes (which includes the heat needed to bring the water to its freezing point): 5200 J. Based on this information, at equilibrium, which phases are present?

Both ice and water Since 2100 J is more than 1800 J, the ice would not completely melt by the time the water reaches its freezing point. However, since 400 J is less than 1800 J, the ice will, indeed, melt partially. The final temperature of the mix is 0∘C.

Why does warm, moist air form clouds when it rises?

Rising air expands and cools. Water drops condense when moist air cools.

What is sublimation? Is it a heating or cooling process?

Sublimation is when the fastest molecules at the surface of a solid have escape velocity and leave to become a gas. It leaves behind the slower, cooler molecules.

Both metals expand unequally.

In an insulated container, 0.50 kg of water at 80∘C is mixed with 0.050 kg of ice at −5.0∘C. After a while, all the ice melts, leaving only the water. Find the final temperature Tf of the water. The freezing point of water is 0∘C.

Change in the temperature of cold water dT = Tf-0 C = Tf Change in the temperature of original water in the container dT' = 80-Tf Latent heat of melting of ice L = 80cal/g Specific heat of water C = 1cal/g C Heat absorbed by ice to melt = mass(mi) x latent heat(L) Heat absorbed by water = mass(mw) x specific heat(C) x change in temperature (dT') mi=0.050kg= 50g and mw=0.50kg = 500g So, heat absorbed by the ice + heat absorbed by cold water = heat lost by hot water( at 80 C) mi*L + mi*CdT = mw*CdT' 50*80 + 50*1*(Tf) = 500 * 1 * (80-Tf) Cancelling out 50 from each term, 80+Tf=800- 10Tf So 11Tf =720 Tf = 65.45 C

Cite two reasons why firewalkers don't burn their wetted feet when they walk barefoot on red-hot coals.

Hot coals have a low conductivity, and water on wet feet absorbs a lot of energy as it vaporizes.

Distinguish between humidity and relative humidity.

Humidity is the mass of water per unit volume. Relative humidity is the ratio of the amount of water in the air to the maximum amount of water the air could contain.

Why is ice less dense than water?

Ice crystallizes with an open structure, and the gaps that form between the water molecules in ice increase its volume.

When an air molecule is hit by an approaching, faster moving molecule, does the approaching molecule's rebound speed increase or decrease? How about when it hits a receding molecule?

Increase, decrease

Does increased atmospheric pressure increase or decrease the boiling point of water? Why?

Increase. Higher pressure collapses the bubbles that form.

Why doesn't a wire simply cut a block of ice in two when it passes through the ice?

Pressure beneath the wire melts the ice without warming it, so the liquid flows above the wire, where it refreezes at lower pressure.

Which of the following changes would make the water balloon more likely to pop? (Ignore effects of convection within the fluid.)

Use a liquid that has a lower heat capacity than water. Use a thicker balloon Using a liquid with a lower heat capacity than water means that the candle flame will raise the liquid's temperature more quickly than for water. A thicker balloon will conduct heat through to the liquid more slowly, so that the outer part of the balloon wall will heat up more quickly to its melting point.

Suppose that we replace the aluminum with a mystery metal and repeat the experiment in the video. As in the video, the mass of the metal is the same as that of the water. Room temperature is about 20∘C before the start of the experiment. The water heats up to 40∘C, and the mystery metal heats up to 80∘C. Compared to that of water, the heat capacity of our mystery metal is

one-third as great. Given the same input of energy, the temperature of the metal increased three times as much as the temperature of the water. Therefore, the metal has one-third the heat capacity of water. (Recall that the heat Q delivered to a substance can be written Q = mc ΔT, where m is the mass of the substance and c is its heat capacity.)
