Intermolecular distance is the distance between the particles that make up matter. The graph below compares the intermolecular distances in two substances. One substance is gas and the other is a liquid. Which statement best describes the two substances?

A. Particles collide in liquids so Substance Y is a liquid
B. Particles collide in gas so Substance X is a gas.
C. Particles move around in liquids so Substance X is a liquid.
D. Particles move around in gas so Substance Y is a gas.

y has to be a liquid and x would be a gas

Explanation:

the closer two molecules are, greater is the force of attraction which makes them stick together and give it a structure

here y has lesser intermolecular distance so it is a liquid

particles will collide in gas though as

liquid particles have constant motion

hi there!

your question asks at which segment does freezing occur.

since we're talking about water, the freezing point of water will be 32 degrees fahrenheit or below.

hope this ! ~

when jerome paddle in flowing river towards east the net speed of jerome will increase

so the net speed of jerome will be given as

now the speed of paul will be same as it is given as he is running on the ground

so

so here we can say since the speed of jerome is more so he will win the race

now as we know the distance so the time difference is given as

so jerome will reach first and the time difference will be 203.55 s or 3.4 min
