This graph represents a population of molecules in a gas versus the distribution of the average velocity(speed) of its molecules in that population. Assume all molecules to be of the same mass. In reading the graph, it is important to note three things. One, is the most probable speed is at the peak of the curve. Secondly, the most probable speed increases as the temperature increases (so shift to the right), and the distribution broadens as it increases. On the graph, indicate the average kinetic energy of the population.

Explain your answer.

What part of the graph indicates the temperature of the sample?

Explain your answer.

During metamorphic processes, increased pressure and temperature can affect the of minerals in rock. rocks subjected to very high pressure are typically than others because mineral grains are squeezed together, and the atoms are more closely packed. during metamorphic processes, water facilitates the transfer of ions between and within minerals, which can the rate at which metamorphic reactions take place. the growth of new minerals within a rock during metamorphism has been estimated to be about per million years. metamorphism is commonly associated with convergent plate boundaries, where two plates move toward each other. during contact metamorphism, a large intrusion will contain thermal energy and will cool much more slowly than a small one. metamorphosed sandstone is known as the metamorphic rock made from metamorphosed shale, was once used to make blackboards for classrooms.

Given that 1 mi = 1760 yd, determine what conver- sion factor is appropriate to convert 1849 yd to miles; to convert 2.781 mi to yards.

Which of these statements explains the difference between nuclear binding energy and the strong nuclear force ?
