(a)
Interpretation:
The boiling point of water in A0 if melting point of ammonia is 0 A0 or − 77.75 C0 and boiling point of ammonia is 100 A0 or - 33.35 C0 needs to be determined.
Concept introduction:
The conversion factor required to determine the results in different or desired scale by equivalizing the different units.
The temperature of the sample at given scale degree M can be identified as follows:

- James decided to conduct an investigation to find out what would happen with food coloring to water at various temperatures. First he put equal amounts of beakers After looking at his results and data, James claims that the kinetic energy of the substances in the beaker can be changed by transferring energy to the beakers. Is there sufficient evidence to support this claim? (a) No there is not enough evidence to support this claim, because there is no data to suggest that energy has been transferred to the beakers. (b) Yes the data and observable evidence in the gift are sufficient to support his claim (c) No, the evidence is not sufficient, Because energy is invisible so it’s impossible to tell whether the kinetic energy has changed (d) No, the evidence actually suggest that there is no connection between energy transfer and kinetic energy within an objector substancearrow_forward5. Identify the following as a physical or chemical change: (a) water boils at 212 °F (b) applying an electric current to water causing the evolution of a gas (c) some metal statues obtain a green color after years of exposure to the atmosphere (d) evaporation of water from a saline solution leaves a solid salt residuearrow_forwardAre each of the following things good or bad in a distillation?
