The melting temperature of tin is about 231˚ C and the melting temperature for oxygen is about -218˚ C. What is the difference in the melting temperatures for tin and oxygen?

a.144
b.13

Respuesta :

Answer:

[tex]D = 512^\circ[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]Tin=231^\circ[/tex]

[tex]Oxygen=-218^\circ[/tex]

Required

The difference in their melting points

This is calculated as:

[tex]D = |Oxygen - Tin|[/tex]

[tex]D = |-281^\circ - 231^\circ|[/tex]

[tex]D = |-512^\circ|[/tex]

[tex]D = 512^\circ[/tex]

The difference is 512 degrees
