|
| 502. |
Which among the following is true ? |
|
Answer» Air is a bad conductor of heat and THERMAL expansion of solids is more than that of GASES. In cases of solid, themolecules are closelypacked and theintermolecularforce of attraction are maximum .Therefore, on heating the molecules cannotmove freelythereby showigless expansion thangeses inwhich the forece of attraction betweenmolecules is less, andhence, on heating KE of molecules increses, andtherefore, the volumeincreases. |
