The speed of sound in ice, water, and steam is shown. A 3 column by 4 row table. Column 1 is titled Medium and includes the following entries: Ice, Water, Steam. Column 2 is titled Temperature (degrees Celsius) and includes the following entries: 0, 25, 100. Column 3 is titled Speed of Sound (meters per second) and includes the following entries: 3200 meters per second, 1500 meters per second, 346 meters per second. What best explains the speed of sound in different states of matter? Sound travels fastest in ice because energy is easier to transfer when the molecules are close together. Sound travels slowest in steam because the sound has to move around the gas molecules that are far apart. Sound travels fastest in ice because the temperature of solids is always greater, so the heat transfers the sound energy. Sound travels slowest in steam because the pressure is so great the sound cannot travel though the steam particles.

Listen base your answer to the question on the information below. propane is a fuel that is sold in rigid, pressurized cylinders. most of the propane in a cylinder is liquid, with gas in the space above the liquid level. when propane is released from the cylinder, the propane leaves the cylinder as a gas. propane gas is used as a fuel by mixing it with oxygen in the air and igniting the mixture, as represented by the balanced equation below. c3h8(g) + 5o2(g) → 3co2(g) + 4h2o() + 2219.2 kja small amount of methanethiol, which has a distinct odor, is added to the propane to consumers detect a propane leak. in methanethiol, the odor is caused by the thiol functional group (–sh). methanethiol, ch3sh, has a structure that is very similar to the structure of methanol. what is the correct structural formula for a molecule of methanethiol

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.)
