  5. 3) If the specific heat of water were lower than it is, ponds in the cold of winter would be • A) neither more nor less likely to freeze. • B) less likely to freeze. • C) more likely to freeze. • 4) If glass expanded more than mercury, then the column of mercury in a mercury thermometer would rise when the temperature • decreases. • increases. • C) neither of these.

  6. 5) Which of the following contracts most when the temperature is decreased? Equal volumes of • helium. • B) water. • C) wood. • D) iron. • E) all contract the same. • 6) When an iron ring is heated, the hole becomes • A) smaller. • B) neither smaller nor larger. • C) larger.

  7. 7) Some molecules are able to absorb large amounts of energy in the form of internal vibrations and rotations. Materials composed of such molecules have • low specific heats. • B) high specific heats. • 8) Which of the following expands most when the temperature is increased? Equal volumes of • A) ice water. • B) wood. • C) helium. • D) iron. • E) All expand the same.

  8. 9) When water at 4 degrees C is heated it expands. When water at 4 degrees C is cooled, it • A) expands. • B) neither contracts nor expands. • C) contracts. • 10) Room temperature on the Kelvin scale is about • A) 100 K. • B) 300 K. • C) 400 K. • D) 200 K. • E) more than 400 K.
