Answer : Gold will heat up faster.

Explanation : Given,

The Specific heat of Silver and gold are 0.057 & 0.0314 calories/gram^{0}C respectively.

Specific heat is the amount of energy/heat required to raise the temperature of 1 Kg mass by 1 Kelvin.

The formula of Specific heat is,

q=m\times c\times (T_{final}-T_{initial})

Where,

c = Specific heat

q = Heat required

T_{final} = final temperature

T_{initial} = initial temperature

we are taking initial temperature as zero. According to the question, the mass and the heat are same.

Now put all the values in above formula, we get

For gold,

q=m\times 0.031\times (T_{gold}-0)        .........(1)

For silver,

q=m\times 0.057\times (T_{silver}-0)      ......... (2)

Now equating equation (1) and (2), we get

T_{gold}=1.83\times T_{silver}

From this, we conclude that the temperature of gold is 1.83 times higher than the temperature of silver.

Therefore, Gold will heat up faster.

I think the substance that will heat up faster would be the silver metal since it has a higher heat capacity. Heat capacity is the amount of heat needed to raise the temperature of the system into one degree. Heat capacity and heat energy is directly related so higher value of heat capacity would lead to higher heat energy.

Hey there!

The correct answer should be B. Potential Energy Only

Potential energy is the energy stored in an object because it isn’t moving/isn’t in motion

Hope this helps you!

How many molecules of glucose are in 2.0 ml of a 1.02 mM solution of glucose?
kifflom [539]
Volume in liters:

2.0 mL / 1000 => 0.002 L

Molarity = 1.02 M

Number of moles glucose :  

n = M  x V

n = 1.02 x 0.002 => 0.00204 moles

1 mole ------------------ 6.02x10²³ molecules
0.00204 moles ------ ??

0.00204 x ( 6.02x10²³) / 1 =>  1.228x10²¹ molecules of glucose

hope this helps!
