The basic reason is that before 2007 their were not enough energy in the liquid methane molecules to break the bond between them after 2007 the energy of the molecules increases which breaks the bond and the liquid methane changes phase.
Why didn’t the liquid methane change phase before 2007?It had been summer since 2002, but the lake didn’t evaporate until 2007.
The molecular attraction between methane molecules is stronger the amount of energy absorbed by liquid methane was not enough to break the inter molecular forces until 2007.
After 2007, the sun had transferred enough energy so that the kinetic energy of the methane molecules increased enough to overcome the attraction between them.
The liquid methane evaporated and the molecules started moving away from each other.
Thus the liquid methane starts to change phase after 2007 by getting enough energy from the sun.

Different isotopes of an element can exist. For example, Carbon can have a mass number of 12 or a mass number of 14. Carbon always has an atomic number of 6.
Describe the difference between these two isotopes of Carbon.
In your answer, compare the number of protons, neutrons and electrons.
Answer:
Carbon 14 has 2 more neutrons than Carbon 12
same number of protons and electrons if they are both neutral atoms (that is the + or - aspect)
Explanation:
Answer:
The difference is the number of neutrons they have.
Explanation:
The atomic number is the number of protons. The number of protons is what differentiates elements. The isotope number is the total weight of the atom, that is the protons plus the neutrons. Therefore the number of neutrons is equal to the atomic mass minus the atomic number. Electrons are generally equal to the number of protons, to balance the charge of the atom.
In short: the difference between the two isotopes is that one has more neutrons.
A 15kg boulder is moved from the Earth to the Moon. Explain what happens to the mass and weight of the boulder.
Answer:
The mass of the boulder remains constant, while its weight decreases with respect to the value of gravitational force on the moon.
Explanation:
The mass of the boulder = 15 kg
On the earth, its mass remains 15 kg. But its weight is;
weight = m x g
= 15 x 9.8
= 147 N
The boulder's weight on the earth is 147 N.
When transferred to the moon, the mass remains constant i.e 15 kg. But its weight decreases due to a change in the value of acceleration due to gravity on the moon. Thus, the boulder becomes lighter in weight.

a= ?
v=
r=
Answer:
[tex]a=\frac{v^2}{r}[/tex]
[tex]v=\sqrt{a*r}[/tex]
[tex]r=\frac{v^2}{a}[/tex]
Explanation:
This is the formula for centripetal acceleration in terms of the tangential velocity (v) and the radius of the circular motion (r). The expression for the acceleration is already given, so simply type it as shown:
[tex]a=\frac{v^2}{r}[/tex]
For the velocity (v) multiply by "r" both sides and then use the square root to solve for v:
[tex]a*r=v^2\\v=\sqrt{a*r}[/tex]
For the radius multiply both sides by r and then divide both sides by the acceleration (a) in order to isolate r completely:
[tex]a*r=v^2\\r=\frac{v^2}{a}[/tex]
