Which is most likely to occur, reactions that would raise the potential energy of the molecules, or reactions that lower the potential energy of the molecules?

A

Explanation:

It is more likely reactions that raise the potential energy of the molecules would occur because friction is constantly occurring. Friction leads to more heat, more energy.

explanation:

earth's surface is mainly heated by the absorption of infrared radiation from the sun.

evaporation occurs because molecules in liquid water are warmed ( usually by the sun) and vibrate quicker, becoming less dense and rise.

condensation occurs because molecules in water vapor are cooled and therefore vibrate more slowly thus becoming more dense and eventually fall to earth.

lines of equal barometric pressure on a weather map are called: isobars : lines of equal temp on a weather map are called: isotherms.​
