Answer:

A. Heat flows from an object at higher temperature to an object at lower temperature

Explanation:

The option A obeys the 2nd law of thermodynamics. The heat will flow from the object at higher temperature to the object at Lower temperature till they reach an equilibrial state.

Heat doesn’t necessarily flow from an object with higher thermal energy to an object with lower thermal energy because an object has a higher thermal energy when it’s mass is more than the other. This makes B wrong.

C is wrong because heat moves from an object with higher temperature to objects with Lower temperature regardless of the state of matter.

What is the maximum mass of ethyl alcohol you could boil with 2000 j of heat, starting from 19 ∘c?
RSB [31]
The boiling point of ethanol is at 78.37°C. So, the energy must include sensible heat to raise 19°C to the boiling point and latent heat to change liquid to gas. The equation would be

Energy = Sensible heat + Latent heat
Energy = mCpΔT + mΔH

For ethanol, 
Cp = 46.068 + 102,460T - 139.63T² - 0.030341T³ + 0.0020386T⁴ J/kmol·K
ΔH = 38,560 J/mol

Integrate the Cp expression to determine CpΔT:

CpΔT = ∫₂₉₂³⁵²(46.068 + 102,460T - 139.63T² - 0.030341T³ + 0.0020386T⁴ )dT
The upper limit is (78.37+273) = 352 K, while the lower limit is (19 + 273) = 292.
CpΔT = 2384857192 J/kmol·K

2,000 J = m(2384857192 J/kmol)(1 kmol/1000 mol) + m(38,560 J/mol)
m = 8.253×10⁻⁴ moles of ethanol
Since the molar mass of ethanol is 46.07 g/mol,
Mass = (8.253×10⁻⁴ mol)(46.07 g/mol)
Mass = 0.038 g ethanol

Explain why the poles are colder than the tropics.?
iren2701 [21]
The poles don’t receive direct sunlight which is why they are colder than the tropics. Even during the summer the sun is low on the horizon.
