What is the difference between a monomer and a polymer?
According to one of the principles of combustion, solid and liquid fuels must be changed to a gas before they burn. For liquid fuels, this is easily explained as liquids vaporize when enough heat is applied to reach the boiling point. How can you explain the same principle of combustion with regards to solid fuels like coal?Answer in less than 100 words.

- What is the difference between a chemical and physical change? What is the difference between an intermolecular force and an intramolecular force? Explain why it takes more energy to break an intramolecular force than it does an intermolecular force. Define viscosity. Describe what surface tension is and how you know that water has a higher surface tension than alcohol. If a substance has a high viscosity, then it has strong intermolecular forces. For example, in the investigation we did, we found that room-temperature corn syrup had stronger intermolecular forces/higher viscosity than the hot corn syrup because it took longer for it to pour out of the beaker. Describe cohesion and adhesion and how they relate to your everyday life. Substances with high boiling, melting, and freezing points have stronger intermolecular forces.
