3. Infer Which is easier to compress, a gas or a solid? Explain your answer. 4. Identify Relationships Which particles have more kinetic energy-those in a sub- stance with a high temperature or those in a substance with a low temperature? 5. Compare A scientist has two samples of a substance. Both samples have the same temperature. One sample has a mass of 10 g. The other sample has a mass of 20 g. Compare the average kinetic energy and total kinetic energy of the particles in each sample.

If 10. J of heat is applied to 5.0-g samples of each of the sub stances listed in Table 10.1, which substance’s temperature will increase the most? Which substance’s temperature wilt increase the least?
Classify each of the following processes as endothermic or exothermic: a.freezing b.sublimation c.vaporization
If 100. J of heat energy is applied to a 25-g sample of mercury, by how many degrees will the temperature of the sample of mercury increase? (See Table 10.1.)
During a recent winter month in Sheboygan, Wisconsin, it was necessary to obtain 3500 kWh of heat provided by a natural gas furnace with 89% efficiency to keep a small house warm (the efficiency of a gas furnace is the percent of the heat produced by combustion that is transferred into the house). (a) Assume that natural gas is pure methane and determine the volume of natural gas in cubic feet that was required to heat the house. The average temperature of the natural gas was 56 F; at this temperature and a pressure of 1 atm, natural gas has a density of 0.68 1 g/L. (b) How many gallons of LPG (liquefied petroleum gas) would be required to replace the natural gas used? Assume the LPG is liquid propane [ C3H8 : density, 0.5318 g/mL; enthalpy of combustion, 2219 Id/mo for the formation of CO2(g) and H2O(l) ] and the furnace used to burn the LPG has the same efficiency as the gas furnace. (c) What mass of carbon dioxide is produced by combustion of the methane used to heat the house? (d) What mass of water is produced by combustion of the methane used to heat the house? (e) What volume of air is required to provide the oxygen for the combustion of the methane used to heat the house? Air contains 23% oxygen by mass. The average density of air during the month was 1.22 g/L. (f) How many kilowatt—hours ( 1kWh=3.6106 J) of electricity would be required to provide the heat necessary to heat the house? Note electricity is 100% efficient in producing heat inside a house. (g) Although electricity is 100% efficient in producing heat inside a house, production and distribution of electricity is not 100% efficient. The efficiency of production and distribution of electricity produced in a coal-fired power plant is about 40%. A certain type of coal provides 2.26 kWh per pound upon combustion. What mass of this coal in kilograms will be required to produce the electrical energy necessary to heat the house if the efficiency of generation and distribution is 40%?
9.81 A substance has the following properties: Hfusion = 10.0 kJ/mol Hvaporiztion = 20.0 kJ/mol Cp(solid) = 30 J/mol/K Cp(liquid) = 60 J/mol/K Cp(gas) = 30 J/mol/K Which of the four graphs below would he most consistent with these data? Explain how you are able to identify the correct graph.
Suppose that you are closing a cabin in the north woods for the winter and you do not want the water in the toilet tank to freeze. You know that the temperature might get as low as 30.

Calculate the volume of ethylene glycol (density = 1.113 g/mL; molar mass = 62.1 g/mol) you should add to the 4.0 L water.
