Answer: That means that the concrete will increase it temperatures quicly compared with other substances whose specific heat is higher.

Explanation:

Specific heat is the amounf of heat to raise the temperature of 1 gram of substance (or kg depending on the unis used) 1 Celsius degree.

The water, for example, has a high specific heat. That means that you need to add a great amount of heat to raise its temperature, compared with, for exampple the concrete, which is told to have a smaller heat capacity.

You can see that mathematically form the formula for heat released or absorbed from/by a substance:

Q = mass × Specific heat × ΔT

⇒ ΔT = Q / (mass × Specific heat).

So, for the same mass, a certain amount of heat (Q) will result in a bigger ΔT when the specifif heat is smaller.

ipn [44]
Missing question:

(a) 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s1
(b) 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2
(c) 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p1

(d) 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p4

(e) 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p5

Answer is: a) 1s²2s²2p⁶3s¹ (sodium).

Sodium have the largest second ionization energy, because when he lost one electron(first ionization energy), he have stable electron configuration of noble gas neon (1s²2s²2p⁶), so sodium do not need to lost second electron, because he will have unstable electron configuration.

sergij07 [2.7K]

Answer:

Hydrogen peroxide should be stored in

1) a cool environment

2) with amber bottles away from sunlight

3) with little drops of sodium phosphate

Explanation:

It has been confirmed that heat and light aids in the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide according to the equation; 2H2O2→2 H2O + O2.

This means that hydrogen peroxide must be stored in a cool place. This will reduce its rate of decomposition. Secondly, it should be stored in amber bottles away from light since light also aids in its decomposition.

Thirdly, drops of sodium phosphate may be added to prevent its catalytic decomposition during storage.
