TLDR: The energy was being used simply to heat the substance up.
Whenever something melts, it performs what is called a "phase transition", where the state of matter moves from one thing to something else. You can see this in your iced drink at lunch; as the ice in the cup of liquid heats up, it reaches a point where it will eventually "change phase", or melt. The same can be achieved if you heat up that water enough, like if you're cooking; when you boil eggs, the water has so much thermal energy it can "change phase" and become a gas!
However, water doesn't randomly become a boiling gas, it has to heat up for a while before it reaches that temperature. For a real-life example, the next time you cook something, hold you hand above the water before it starts boiling. You'll see that that water has quite a high temperature despite not boiling.
There's a lot of more complex chemistry to describe this phenomena, such as the relationship between the temperature, pressure, and what is called the "vapor pressure" of a liquid when describing phase changes, but for now just focus on the heating effect. When ice melts, it doesn't seem like its heating up, but it is. The ice absorbs energy from its surroundings (the warmer water), thus heating up the ice and cooling down the water. Similarly, the bunsen burner serves to heat up things in the lab, so before the solid melts in this case it was simply heating up the solid to the point that it <u>could</u> melt.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
hold on this will take me awhile
Explanation:
Answer:
= 1.271 J/g°C
Explanation:
Heat released by the metal sample will be equivalent to the heat absorbed by water.
But heat = mass × specific heat capacity × temperature change
Thus;
Heat released by the solid;
= 225 g × c ×(67 -53) , where c is the specific heat capacity of the metal
= 3150 c joules
Heat absorbed by water;
= 25.6 g × 4.18 J/g°C × (53-15.6)
= 4002.0992 joules
Therefore;
3150 c joules = 4002.0992 joules
c =4002.0992/3150
<u> = 1.271 J/g°C</u>
Yes the answer is 1s22s22p63s23p64s23d5
<u><em>Answer:</em></u>
- The correct option is C.
- Formation of a precipitate
<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>
During a chemical reaction, new substances are formed known as a products, mostly reaction occur and their product is obtained as precipitates.
<u><em>Example</em></u>
Arylidene-2-thiobarbituric acid is obtained as precipitates when aldehyde and thiobarbituric acid react to each other.
melting of a substance
It is just indication of physical changes, like melting of ice, composition remained same as before.
boiling of a substance
It is just indication of physical changes, like boiling of water into vapors, composition remained same as before.
freezing of a substance
It is just indication of physical changes, like freezing of water into ice, composition remained same as before
