Which two properties are used to define matter?
Fantom [35]
The two properties which are used to define matter are that it has mass and it takes up space. The other properties do not necessarily apply to each matter. Such some matter can be a conductor of heat (such as metal) and some not (such as non metals). Likewise, some matter can be buoyant and float on liquid of density more than it but others would not on the liquids of density less than it. In-fact not all the matters are conductors of energy (such as heat, sound, electricity) or at-least a very poor conductor of energy and tend to find application as insulating agents (non conductors). So the only thing which is necessarily true is that the matter would definitely have mass in even their minutest form as atom and would take up some space.

What is the total number of valence electrons in a carbon atom in the ground state
kolbaska11 [484]
Carbon will have 4 valence electrons.  It will have 2 in the p orbital and 2 in the s orbital.  You can see this when you find the noble gas configuration of carbon which is [He]2s²2p² showing that carbon has 4 valence electrons.
I hope this helps.  Let me know if anything is unclear.

What is the temperature change in 355 mL of water upon absorption of 34 kJ of heat? (The specific heat capacity of water is 4.18
frozen [14]

The temperature change is 23 °C.

<em>q = mC</em>Δ<em>T</em>

Δ<em>T</em> = <em>q</em>/(<em>mC</em>)

<em>m</em> = 355 g

∴ Δ<em>T</em> = (34 000 J)/(355 g × 4.184 J·°C⁻¹g⁻¹) = 23 °C

<em>Note</em>: The answer can have only <em>two significant figures</em> because that is all you gave for the amount of heat absorbed.
