Questions and Answers

What is the primary reason for the slow diffusion of a drop of ink in water?

  • The strong intermolecular forces between the ink and water molecules
  • The relatively small empty spaces between the molecules (correct)
  • The high kinetic energy of the ink molecules
  • The large empty spaces between the molecules
  • What is the relationship between the average kinetic energy of liquid molecules and the absolute temperature?

  • The average kinetic energy is independent of the absolute temperature
  • The average kinetic energy is directly proportional to the absolute temperature (correct)
  • The average kinetic energy is proportional to the square root of the absolute temperature
  • The average kinetic energy is inversely proportional to the absolute temperature
  • What is the main reason for the molecules in a liquid not being in fixed positions?

  • The attractive forces between the molecules are not sufficient to hold them in fixed positions (correct)
  • The weak intermolecular forces between the molecules
  • The close packing of the molecules
  • The high kinetic energy of the molecules
