The specific heat of mercury is 149.4 J/(kgK)
Explanation:
When a substance is supplied with an amount of energy Q, its temperature increases according to the equation:
where
is the increase in temperature
m is the mass of the sample
is its specific heat capacity
For the sample of mercury in this problem we have
Q = 275 J
m = 0.450 kg
Therefore, by re-arranging the equation we find the mercury's specific heat:

A satellite is a body that revolves around another larger body. Where the larger body has a stronger gravitational pull on the smaller body, keeping it in orbit. Thus the moon is the satellite of the Earth is a good example of this.
Atoms like carbon and nitrogen do not form ions because the electronegativity of these atoms are not that high nor very low which means electrons are fairly stable in the atom. While chlorine has very high electronegativity and for sodium very low, atoms tend to receive or release electrons.
