It's C. Compounds are broken down.
Answer: final temperatures will be
a) water 21 C
b) concrete 20.005 C
c) steel 20.008 C
d) mercury 53 C
Explanation:
Change in temp dT = dH / (mass x specific heat)
Specific heat of these materials can be found from many sources:
water = 1 kcal / kg C
concrete = 210 kcal / kg C
steel = 114 kcal / kg C
mercury = 0.03 kcal /kg C
So dT (water) from 1 kcal heat into 1 kg water = 1 kcal / (1 kg x 1 kcal/kg C) = 1 C therefore the final temperature is 20 + 1 = 21 C
But dT (steel) = 1 kcal / (1kg x 114 kcal/kg C) = 0.008 C so the final temperature is 20 + 0.008 = 20.008 C
The results for concrete and mercury are calculated in the same way
Answer: Starch
Explanation:
Why is starch larger than glucose? Based on the experiment, starch molecules are bigger in comparison to glucose molecules because they could not leave the tubing. This is supported by the presence of color change in the tubing for the starch test.
The best description for the relationship between the products and the reactants in an exothermic reaction is C. The potential energy of the products is less than the potential energy of the reactants.
