Air is composed of many different gasses, while water is a pure substance. Which choice best compares air and water?(1 point)

Responses

Air is a mixture of two or more components that keep their own identifying properties, while water is composed of compounds that combine forming a mixture.

Reggie puts a beaker of ice and water on a hot plate. He observes the ice slowly melt as shown in diagram below. After a few minutes, only liquid water is left in the beaker. Eventually, the water becomes hot enough to boil. The liquid water changes to water vapor, which is a gas.

Let's go through each question and identify the best answers:

  1. Comparison of Air and Water:

    • Best choice: Air is a mixture of two or more components that keep their own identifying properties, while water is composed of elements that combine forming a compound.
    • Explanation: Air is made up of various gases (like nitrogen and oxygen) that maintain their individual properties, while water is a compound (H₂O) formed from hydrogen and oxygen.
  2. Changing a Liquid to a Solid:

    • Best choice: Remove energy from the liquid so that its particles slow down.
    • Explanation: To change a liquid into a solid, you need to decrease the energy of the liquid, allowing the particles to slow down and arrange themselves into a solid structure.
  3. Difference Between Ice and Water Vapor:

    • Best choice: The ice particles have less energy.
    • Explanation: Ice particles are in a solid state with less kinetic energy compared to water vapor, which is in a gaseous state with higher energy.
  4. Effect of Heat on Water Particles:

    • Best choice: The particles move rapidly and spread far apart.
    • Explanation: When heat is applied, the energy increases, causing the water particles to move faster and spread apart, transforming from liquid to gas (water vapor).
  5. Energy of Motion in Hot vs. Cold Liquids:

    • Best choice: Particles in hot liquids move faster.
    • Explanation: The temperature of a liquid is related to the kinetic energy of its particles; hot liquids have particles that move more rapidly than those in cold liquids.
