The Ptolemaic theory of the universe was disproved by Nicolaus Copernicus (1473–1543), letter C and followed by Johannes Kepler (1571–1630). Geocentric theory suggested that the Sun and moon orbited Earth, and the rest of the planets orbited the Sun is Heliocentric theory. Heliocentric theory of Nicolaus Copernicus during the Scientific Revolution on 17th and 18th century while Geocentric theory was proposed by Ptolemy (AD 150) and Aristotle. Today, we believe more on the Heliocentric theory and it has been proven as well.

Describe what happens to chemical bonds during a chemical reaction

dimulka [17.4K]

Explanation:

The bonds that keep molecules together break apart and form new bonds during chemical reactions, rearranging atoms into different substances. Each bond takes a distinct amount of energy to either break or form; the reaction does not take place without this energy, and the reactants stay as they were.

Two objects of the same mass, but made of different materials, are initially at the same temperature. Equal amounts of heat are

adelina 88 [10]

Answer:

The final temperature of the two objects is the same.

Explanation:

The expression for the heat energy in terms of mass, specific heat and the change in the temperature is as follows:

$Q=mc(T_{f} -T_{i})$

Here, Q is the heat energy, m is the mass of the object, c is the specific heat and $T_{f},T_{i}$ are the final temperature and initial temperature.

According to the given question, Two objects of the same mass, but made of different materials, are initially at the same temperature. Equal amounts of heat are added to each object.

$Q=mc(T_{f}-T_{i})$ ............(1)

$Q=mc(T'_{f}-T_{i})$ .............(2)

From (1) and (2),

$mc(T_{f}-T_{i})=mc(T'_{f}-T_{i})$

$T_{f}-T_{i}=T'_{f}-T_{i}$

$T_{f}=T'_{f}$

Therefore, the final temperature of the two objects is the same.
