Answer: 15062.4 Joules

Explanation:

The quantity of heat energy (Q) required to heat a substance depends on its Mass (M), specific heat capacity (C) and change in temperature (Φ)

Thus, Q = MCΦ

Since,

Q = ?

Mass of food = 200.0g

C = 4.184 j/g°C

Φ = (Final temperature - Initial temperature)

= 83.0°C - 65.0°C = 18°C

Then, Q = MCΦ

Q = 200.0g x 4.184 j/g°C x 18°C

Q = 15062.4 J

Thus, 15062.4 joules of heat energy was contained in the food.

Which explains how burning a magnesium ribbon highlights a toolmark?
Setler [38]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

The magnesium ribbon, <u>D. It forms a material to cast the tool mark</u>.

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

When a magnesium ribbon is burnt in the presence of oxygen it gives out strong light and heat is produced. Apart from it, it leads to the production of substance called as magnesium oxide which is formed as the product due to the reaction of magnesium with the oxygen present in the air.

Tool marks are the mark which is created by tools while using them. In order to identify or locate them castes made up of magnesium oxide is utilized. When this is pasted on the suspected area, the tool mark of the suspected tool gets pasted on it.
