O the amount of heat required to increase the temperature of 1 gram by 1°C

Explanation:

The specific heat of a substance is the amount of heat required to increase the temperature of 1 gram of a substance by 1°C. It is an intensive property that is specific to every substance.

The unit is given as J/g⁻¹°C⁻¹ or J/g⁻¹K⁻¹

This related to the quantity of heat using the expression below:

             Q = mC∅

Q is the quantity of heat added

m is the mass

C is the specific heat

∅ is the temperature change.

What is the density of a solid that has a mass of 9.2 grams and a volume of 12.3 cm3 ? Would this object float or sink in water?
cluponka [151]
  • Mass=9.2g
  • Volume=12.3

\boxed{\sf Density=\dfrac{Mass}{Volume}}

\\ \sf\longmapsto Density=\dfrac{9.2}{12.3}

\\ \sf\longmapsto Density=0.74g/cm^3

  • Density of water =1g/cm^3

It will float in water

What happens to ice as it melts energy
KonstantinChe [14]

Answer:

Energy is added (postive enthalpy)

Explanation:

Ice melting means solid turns into liquid. Solid is more stable than liquid thus you must put in energy to weaken the forces of solid and turn it into liquid. Thus, you must put in energy to melt ice. This makes the enthalpy of the system to be positive.

Define intensive properties​
natka813 [3]

Answer:

An intensive property is a property of matter that does not change as the amount of matter changes. It is a bulk property, which means it is a physical property that is not dependent on the size or mass of a sample.

In contrast, an extensive property is one that does depend on sample size. Examples of extensive properties include mass and volume.

el diametro de la tierra en el ecuador es de 7926381 ml. redondee este numero a tres cifras significativas y expresel en notcion
elena55 [62]

7.93 x 10⁶mi

Explanation:

Significant figures are numbers that shows how accurate and precise scientific measurements are reported.

Here are some rules to identifying them;

  • All non-zero digits are significant
  • zeros between digits are significant
  • leading zero before a decimal are not significant
  • trailing zero after a decimal are significant
  • trailing zero before a decimal point are significant.

The number 7926381  has 7 significant numbers.

To write in the scientific notation, we simply express as N x 10ᵃ

   N is the number of significant number

   a is the exponent

N here is 7.93

a here is 6

            7.93 x 10⁶mi
