A) At their highest point, both systems have the same amount of gravitational potential energy. B) At their highest point, both systemshave the same amount of kinetic energy. C) At their highest point, both systemshave the same amount of mechanical energy. D) At their highest point, grasshopper B is moving faster than grasshopper A. E) At their highest point, the system grasshopper A-Earth has more gravitational potential energy than the system grasshopper B-Earth.

Based on atomic size, which would you expect to be more soluble in water: helium, He, or nitrogen, Image?

A) Although He is smaller, its outer orbital is filled and the atom will have little attraction to the water molecules. B) Since He atoms are smaller, more of them can fit into solution, so it has a higher solubility in water. C) Nitrogen atoms are bigger and so nitrogen molecules should be more soluble in water due to greater dipole-induced dipole attractions. D) He atoms are bigger and so helium molecules should be more soluble in water due to greater dipole-induced dipole attractions.
