When 1 kg of water and 1 kg of wood absorb the same amount of heat, the change in temperature of the wood is greater than the change in temperature of the water. which property to explain this difference?
a. intermolecular forces in water are greater than those in wood.
b. intermolecular forces in water are less than those in wood.
c. the latent heat of fusion of water is less than that of wood.
d. the latent heat of fusion of water is greater than that of wood.

The dipole moment of the water molecule (h2o) is 6.17x10^-30 c.m. consider a water molecule located at the origin whose dipole moment p points in the +x-direction. a chlorine ion ( of charge-1.60x10^-19c , is located at x=3.00x10^-9m . assume that is much larger than the separation d between the charges in the dipole, so that the approximate expression for the electric field along the dipole axis can be used. a) find the magnitude of the electric force that the water molecule exerts on the chlorine ion. b) what is the direction of the electric force. -x-direction or +x-direction c) is this force attractive or repulsive?

Ascientist notices that an oil slick floating on water when viewed from above has many different colors reflecting off the surface, making it look rainbow-like (an effect known as iridescence). she aims a spectrometer at a particular spot and measures the wavelength to be 750 nm (in air). the index of refraction of water is 1.3
