Explanations

16 The temperature of a sample of matter is a measure of the

(1) average potential energy of the particles of the sample

(2) average kinetic energy of the particles of the sample

(3) total nuclear energy of the sample

(4) total thermal energy of the sample

2linktemperature=average kinetic energy
17 Under which conditions of temperature and pressure does a real gas behave most like an ideal gas?

(1) 37 K and 1 atm      (3) 347 K and 1 atm

(2) 37 K and 8 atm      (4) 347 K and 8 atm

3linkideal conditions are ideal vacation conditions

high temp low pressure

18 The ratio of chromium to iron to carbon varies among the different types of stainless steel. Therefore, stainless steel is classified as

(1) a compound     (3) a mixture

(2) an element        (4) a substance

3linkmixture= variable composition

 

19 Which statement explains why increasing the temperature increases the rate of a chemical reaction, while other conditions remain the same? (1) The reacting particles have less energy and collide less frequently. (2) The reacting particles have less energy and collide more frequently. (3) The reacting particles have more energy and collide less frequently. (4) The reacting particles have more energy and collide more frequently4link particles have more energy and collide more frequently
20 An open flask is half filled with water at 25°C. Phase equilibrium can be reached after

(1) more water is added to the flask

(2) the flask is stoppered

(3) the temperature is decreased to 15°C

(4) the temperature is increased to 35°C

2linkequilibrium needs a closed system
