Question 6(multiple choice worth 3 points) (06.02 mc) two planets are orbiting a star. planet a is closer to the star than planet b. which description explains the expected motion of planets a and b? the average speed of planet b is faster than that of planet a. the average speed of planet b is equal to that of planet b. the orbital period of planet b is shorter than that of planet a. the orbital period of planet a is shorter than that of planet b.

answer: the rate of diffusion increases with increase in temperature.

increase in temperature, increases the molecular/particles speed (kinetic energy. diffusion means movement of particles through the material.

generally, the heavier the particle the more it interacts with the environment and more the temperature matters. so higher temperature results in higher diffusion.

in 1783 cavendish was working with his hydrogen gas and found that when he burned it and condensed the vapor it was water. this was very significant since it disproved the greek theory of elements completely since water was not a simple substance but the product of two gases. it was lavoisier who hearing of the experiment gave cavendish's gas the name hydrogen ("water-producer") and added that hydrogen burned by combining with oxygen and that water was a hydrogen-oxygen combination.
