Which statement best explains why water has a higher boiling point than ethane? Ethane molecules are smaller than water and can move faster.
Water molecules need relatively less heat energy to move.
Water molecules form hydrogen bonds, which cannot be broken by heating water.

100 grams of molten lead (600°c) is used to make musket balls. if the lead shot is allowed to cool to room temperature (21°c), what is the change in entropy (in j/k) of the lead? (for the specific heat of molten and solid lead use 1.29 j/g⋅°c; the latent heat of fusion and the melting point of lead are 2.45 × 104 j/kg and 327°c, respectively.)
