Which one of the following is an example of a difficulty caused by thermal expansion?
O A. The siding on a house buckles on a hot day.
OB. Watery iced tea
OC. Smog in the air during summer heat
OD. lce cream not getting hard

A. The siding on a house buckles on a hot day

Explanation:

The key word in this question is EXPANSION. Without even knowing the siding expands causing it to buckle when it's hot, you can use process of elimination. It can't be answer B because watered down iced tea would most likely be as a result of the ice melting which is the opposite of expanding. It can't be C because air is not solidified and therefore can't expand. Lastly, D cannot be it because ice cream expands when cold, causing it to become hard. If it's not hardening then it's not expanding. This is also the correct answer on a p e.x

in the analysis of systems that involve fluid flow, we frequently encounter the combination of properties u and pv.

definition

                    entropy is a measure of the randomness or the extent of disorder of a chemical process.

                      enthalpy is a measure of the heat change of a reaction occurring at a constant pressure.

measurement units:

                        entropy is measured in joule per kelvin (jk⁻¹)   whereas enthalpy is measured in joule per mole (jmol⁻¹)

requirements:

                            entropy has no requirements or limits, and its change is measured by the division between the heat change of the chemical process and the temperature.

                              in contrast, enthalpy can only be related to the heat change of the reaction under standard conditions.
