Tanks of compressed gas must be kept away from heat sources. if a compressed–gas tank is heated too much, it may explode and cause a great deal of damage. which of the following best explains why a compressed–gas tank can explode if it is heated? a. as the gas gets hotter, the molecules gain energy and move farther apart, causing the gas to expand. b. as the gas gets hotter, the molecules expand, causing the gas to exert more pressure. c. as the gas absorbs heat, the molecules break apart, increasing the volume of the gas. d. as the gas absorbs heat, the molecules move more quickly, making the gas more corrosive.

The answer to this question is A. As the gas gets hotter, the molecules gain energy and move farther apart, causing the gas to expand. This is because, whenever you heat a substance, (solid, liquid, or gas), the molecules in the substance will always move more rapidly causing the substance to expand and the molecules to move further away from one another.

A. As the gas gets hotter, the molecules gain energy and move farther apart, causing the gas to expand.

Explanation:

I just took the test and got the question right

Proof is in the image:

he made 11 calls in one day

the answer is ampere

the ampere is used to measure electricity. an ampere is a unit of electric current equal. a unit of measure for the flow of current in a circuit. one ampere is the amount of current flow provided when one volt of electrical pressure is applied against one ohm of resistance.
