Energy and Temperature Activity Worksheet

Chemistry

Land surfaces are much darker so they absorb much more solar radiation than water. Most of the solar radiation is reflected by water which leads in reflecting the solar radiation that reaches the surface back in to the atmosphere.

How does this occur?

Due to lower specific heat of sand it heats up faster than water. On the other hand water requires one calorie of energy to raise the temperature of one gram of water by one degree Celsius. Sand takes 19 calories per gram to raise the temperature of the sand by 1 degree Celsius.  While Sand requires fewer calories to raise its temperature one degree Celsius and that’s why it heats up faster than water.

Land absorbs more solar radiation the land surface retains more heat as do the vegetation for energy.

Therefore, during this experiment the sand heats up much faster than water. This happens because of the specific heat of the sand that initiates the heating rapidly under the lamp as the time passes.

A plant release it’s seed , but soon there after, the area seeds are in experiences a yearlong drought. How would the seeds most
SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

Plants will absorb water through their roots and release water as vapor into the air through these stomata. To survive in drought conditions, plants need to decrease transpiration to limit their water loss. Some plants that live in dry conditions have evolved to have smaller leaves and therefore fewer stomata.

Rob measures the solubility of three different salts in water at 22°C. Which type of graph should he use to display his data?. b
sveta [45]
To present his data on the <span>solubility of three different salts in water at 22°C, bar graph should be used since there are different salts and the only variable is the type of salt used. Line graph and scatter plot use two coordinates or variables and is common to comparing data using the same sample while using histogram to find out data distribution is irrelevant.</span>
